The ACC is likely to scrap their divisions and it seems some of the prevailing wisdom is for all conferences to go that route. Maybe one or two permanent opponents for rivalry sake and then just rotate like they do in basketball.

I think it’s going to be pods - fez MU - 5/17 23:42:09

I think you are right, minus the semi-final. - DHighlander NWMSU - 5/18 17:57:58

Eat tide pods! - implode STL - 5/18 15:56:47

I like it....but we'll never win a game in our pod - coolbean MU - 5/18 15:41:32

Hasn't Arkansas won two of the last three? - Genco98 MU - 5/18 17:09:19

Uh, no - alwaysright MU - 5/18 18:27:06

Odom won his last game - Genco98 MU - 5/18 18:53:10

Ain't going to be any semi-finals - TigerMook MU - 5/18 14:47:37

IMO, The SEC should have an East & West Div, winner - MU-TULSA MU - 5/18 15:41:41

Still the best idea and similar to ACC plan - alwaysright MU - 5/18 13:49:14

NCAA rules are changing - TigerMook MU - 5/18 13:50:49

Which is what allows that concept to work more - alwaysright MU - 5/18 13:54:36

Geographically, that would make the most sense. - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 5/18 13:43:21

I don't agree - Genco98 MU - 5/18 15:05:19

There's zero chance that is happening(nm) - Mormad MU - 5/18 13:05:51

There is no way Missouri is get in a group without - Genco98 MU - 5/18 13:19:36

I think the original guess was pretty close - Mormad MU - 5/18 13:30:39

Also, ZERO chance they play nine conference games and - alwaysright MU - 5/18 11:17:14

Yes, that's why they'll need some way to determine - dangertim MU

There was an article recently that suggested pods might not - alwaysright MU - 5/18 11:13:29

I think pod is a stupid name. How about containment unit - SabertoothTiger MU - 5/18 10:53:31

should call them "families" because it just means more - phrejd MU - 5/18 11:11:09

semifinals?? - stang22 MU - 5/18 10:03:20

Yeah that's what I think would be great - Genco98 MU - 5/18 10:52:29

Believe that's fairly accurate (nm) - Fourth and Long MU - 5/18 09:53:16

I like it, but I have a feeling they're going to swap - kmawv8 MU - 5/18 09:36:52

I do think that's the most fair pod breakdown - dangertim MU

I think there is more desire to play every university - thedad STL - 5/18 08:21:10

We've only played Auburn once in 10 years during - thedad STL - 5/18 08:39:22

I hope it is that. I think that POD would be great - SuperTone MU

9 game schedule will eventually take down the league - TigerFan92 STL - 5/18 07:47:42

I would rather have more good games to watch - jlbomega MU - 5/18 08:18:15

A “conference challenge“ with the ACC would be better - alwaysright MU - 5/19 07:23:06

nonconference doesn't have to be patsies. they can - TigerFan92 STL - 5/18 16:22:00

swap Vandy & Kentucky, and you're probably right (nm) - zounami MU - 5/18 07:36:57

The first pod has three powerhouses, - Newcatbirdseat MU - 5/18 07:33:12

this doesn't make sense(nm) - dangertim MU

- 5/18 09:44:10

Not really. Who?(nm) - Faurotious MU - 5/18 09:33:35

Oklahoma, Texas and Arkansas are certainly SEC powerhouses - Newcatbirdseat MU - 5/18 11:18:36

Nobody considers Arkansas a powerhouse. - alwaysright MU - 5/19 07:18:59

If you say so(nm) - Faurotious MU - 5/18 12:24:58

How are "pods" different from divisions? - Genco98 MU - 5/18 07:15:09

there's 4 of them(nm) - MizzouAstro MU

What about four divisions? - Genco98 MU - 5/18 08:05:30

you're being semantic(nm) - MizzouAstro MU

- 5/18 08:11:41

^^ anti-semantic (nm) - phrejd MU - 5/18 11:08:48

That's not bad balance among the pods - Mormad MU - 5/17 23:53:44

I would rather have OU than AL, GA or LSU…. - Outsider MU - 5/18 07:03:32

I would rather have the freshness and appeal - Genco98 MU - 5/18 07:17:19
