...
I also have a promotion-relegation pyramid idea but I haven't figured out all teh teams for it yet.
Top Conference - Big 10 (10 teams)
Next tier - SEC, ACC (11 teams each)
Third tier - Big XII, Pac-12, AAC (12 teams each)
Fourth tier - CUSA, SBC, MAC, MWC (13 teams each)
14 Indies
Rules: bottom two teams in Big 10 drop to the 22-team second division; conference champs from each go up; bottom three schools in SEC/ACC drop to Big XII, pac-12, AAC, champions from B12/P12/AAC go up; last place team in each conference and the next worst record drop to CUSA, SBC, MAC, MWC, their champions go up; last place team in each conference and one more go down; five best indies go up
Need to figure out the geographical configuration to split the tiers (I did east-west on 14) but I'm really excited with the tier model (in that game I had two divisions in each tier, including at the top)
Would love to hear you all's ideas.
