tried to find an existing thread for this and thought maybe this were the best one....
I just expanded the BIG 12 to include BYU and Houston, split the divisions into a North/South set up. After 3 seasons into it, I've realized that the in-division scheduling is static each year. Each year, my in-division schedule starts with 2 cross-division games, and then in the same order every year: OK State, Kansas, Iowa State, Kansas State, TCU (cross div rival), and Oklahoma to finish the year. Is there a setting to change this (other than modding, which would be a huge pain in the neck to try to do in the regular season)? I don't like finishing against the same teams in the same order every year.

A way to battle this is changing up the conference. IE adding and removing teams. I tend to add/remove teams from the conference I am in every few years. For example, I may move West Virginia to the ACC, or Iowa State to the Big 10 for geographic reasons. It's fairly realistic to see teams move these days, so I don't have to suspend the disbelief. It can also keep things fresh with new opponents.
You could also fix it geographically (IE a more westernly team is in the east conference and vice versa, so you swap them), or change the protected rivals, or turn them off for a season or two.
One final thing (I haven't tried yet) is to move your team out of conference, then move it back in right after. It could trip the system a bit and re-randomize the scheduling.
I feel you pain. I currently have a 4 game road streak to end the season. Although it means I finish with 4 at home next year, it sucks. I'm in teambuilder, so I can't edit.
