350 teams playing 30+ games compared to 100 teams playing 12-13 games...wonder why...

Yes, but all but 1 of the football games in the top 10 were either bowl games or a conference championship game. But I understand what you are getting at, regular season vs. regular season is going to lean to football. There are reasons behind it, but I get what you are saying. |

Something tells me that if the two meet again in the Final this year that number may be a bit off. |

There's one regular season football game on the list. The point isn't to compare football and basketball. It's to show the popularity of CBB and why these conferences are trying to capitalize on it.

I was intrigued by the idea, but I worried that it could potentially be terrible for college athletics (and would likely spell the end of the tournament as we know it eventually) if that were to happen. Slive has no love for the NCAA and no concern for the mid-majors (nor do I, really). If he controlled basketball and football, he would almost certainly try to pull the four superconferences (Big/ACC consolidating into the fourth) out of the NCAA and create a true football playoff plus a smaller (8 or 16 team) basketball tournament without any mid majors. I don't know if that would be a good thing or not.

Why? Anything a conference can do to align themselves with the SEC lends that conference credibility.

why would KU play a mid-tier SEC nobody when they could play Florida or Kentucky?

FTR, I consider championship games post season - not sure that you, or anyone else does.

That's why I worded it the way I did. It's sort of a gray area. It's probably post season, but you could make a case either way.
