Why should conferences have any say in the matter. Conference championships and national championships use entirely different metrics. They are distinct entities unto themselves, and one should not be used as a qualification for the other at the exclusion of all else.

I think it adds much more the games in the playoffs because it isn't watered down with regular season interconference games.

It would be awesome

I think what it creates is a watered down regular season that doesn't measure to the current excitement of college football.

You're talking accounting gimmicks now. The fact that we have a tradition of publishing one type of record over another doesn't reflect any underlying truth relative to this question.

There are few very good non conference games as it is. The benefits outweigh the negatives.

Most teams have 1 decent non con game that will now be replaced by playing legit teams within their conference. I don't see the big loss.

They're distinct now. I think it should be changed.

Just like we determine a national champion using the BCS system now (or the competing AP poll), but we all want to change it in one way or another.

Not at all. League games are designated as games that count. We might as well count field goals kicked in pre-game warmups by your standard. After all, using the actual game to determine when the scoring counts is just an accounting gimmick.

There was a 9 game season in the Big 12 this year which is an example of how conferences do things differently. Conferences are free to schedule however they want and they're also free to count non-conference games as a part of their conference championship determination if they want. I'm not trying to dictate any of those things.

Yes. Conferences do things differently. They are free to do so because conference championships have no bearing on eligibility for national championships.

Designating which games count is something that can easily be changed one way or the other. But we're talking about games here, not random events like pre-game warmup kicks. The games are all played by essentially the same rules whether they're pre-season, regular season, or playoffs in the NFL or non-con, conference, or bowl/playoffs in college. The rule differences, where there are any, are minimal. There's no reason in the world why pre-season games couldn't be regular season games in the NFL. In fact, the owners have proposed transforming 2 of them into real games to make for an 18 game season just recently, no?

Wrong. They'd be free to do so even if conference championships had a bearing on eligibility for national championships, at least up to a point. They are independent of one another.

Maryland will pay something, but much like Mizzou, NU, CU, and A&M, they won't pay anywhere near the full demand.

No. Your last sentence is incorrect.
