This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

There could be a number of Big XII vs. ACC games by Irisharab

Let's say that the SEC goes "conference only," just like the Big 10 and Pac 12.

There are only 10 teams in the Big XII, so if they went "conference only," each team would play only 9 games.

If the other Power-5 conferences are playing 10 or 11 regular season games, the Big XII would almost certainly need to play at least one more game.

Even if the SEC, PAC 12, Big Ten, and all of the Group of 5 conferences choose to play "conference only" this season, the ACC, Big XII, and the other six Division I independents (besides ND) can schedule some games between teams from the different conferences/independent teams.
