This is the best gimmick to dispel a troll I've ever seen. Hasn't worked yet but keep um coming.

I think everyone would have 2 protected teams and rotate the other 8. Here are my guesses at protected teams:

UT - TTech, OU
OU - OSU, UT
TCU - TTech, Baylor
TTech - UT, TCU
Baylor - TCU, OSU
OSU - OU, Baylor
KSU - ISU, KU
KU - KSU, LVille
WVU - ISU, Lville
Lville - WVU, KU
ISU - WVU, KSU

What will also happen is that ISU will probably be the odd one out on rivalry week (last game) and will have following matchups:

OU-OSU
UT-TTech
TCU-Baylor
KU-KSU
WVU-Lville

ISU could play KSU on Thanksgiving weekend though with the above games being the same weekend as other conference championship games.

Assuming that they stay at 11 teams for at least a few years, and that the scheduling is similar to how the Big 10 used to do it, is an 11-team conference a good thing or a bad thing for Iowa State?

Obviously it's good to get 2 more decent programs into the league right away, but others have mentioned that having divisions is a better way for ISU to avoid running the UT/OU gaunlet every year. Plus it's 2 more mouths to feed.

What do you think?

Are you still here? Seriously.

I like it. I also hope we can go with 8 conference games.
