Introducing the Big 18: Why Big 12 should add SMU, form 18-team conference
Anyway, let’s discuss what this would look like. You set up the Big 12 X 1.5 in three six-team divisions. In football, you play everyone in your division each year, which maintains or revives Texas rivalries. You play two other conference games against each division , so that West Coast teams only make one East Coast trip each season. We don’t want to overdo Arizona at Central Florida or BYU at West Virginia.West — Arizona, Arizona State, BYU, Colorado, San Diego State, Utah.
In basketball you could have two options. Play everyone in your division home and road and play another entire division and two games against a third division . You could also just play everyone once and play a rival twice and get 18 games that way. Your choice. For those doubters that remain, you may remind me that SMU has not finished in the AP top 25 poll since emerging from the Death Penalty of 1987. That, indeed, is a long time. But allow me to mention that Arizona, which may be a nice big state school in Tucson instead of a small private institution in University Park, has one top 20 finish this century. The 2014 club finished 19th in the AP poll. Way to go, Wildcats.
