PH: 2015 Planning

Do we need to do any slider changes?

Here is how the conferences will shake out for next season:




:Big_Ten:
:SEC:


LEGENDS
EAST


:Oklahoma:
:Notre_Dame:


:Oklahoma_State:
:Clemson:


:Michigan_State:
:Kentucky:


LEADERS
WEST


:Washington:
:Texas:


:USC:
:Texas_A&M:



:LSU:

I'll worry about which teams are leaving their respective conferences when it's time for me to edit them. Probably the weaker teams will go.

I'll try to set up one protected rivalry cross division as well. Unless we get a 12th guy in, either Tommy or Eric will have two protected games.

I smell a....

:Texas:
:Texas_A&M:
:LSU:
:Alabama:
:Auburn:
:Arkansas:

....SEC West....oooohweeee....no more easy "big recruiting weekend" of Texas Tech & Baylor at the end of the year for me. :nod:

....and depending on what happens in the national title game....I vote Notre Dame to the B1G....lol

If I can keep ND as my protected rivalry that would be great

I was thinking protected in conference where you play them every year instead of two years on two years off.

As for cross conference, I can schedule those. I'll create a schedule request thread once we get there.

Notre Dame is in the SEC fella :D

Misunderstood. Thought we were doing one big conference just deciding if we were going B1G or SEC.

Two conferences, with cross conference match ups out of conference. Probably 5-6 user games plus the title game for the conference.

[JBHuskers]

I remember trying the one conference thing and it fell flat because people scheduling games every advance was a pain in the ass.

Can you keep Michigan in the Legends to ensure my yearly rivalry game stays? Thanks!

Yep. I will do that.

My issue right now is the fact I am not getting any coach points. This means I am stuck at the current level I am at for recruiting and I will never be able to upgrade my "Game Management" categories to help booster my QB's sucking unless they get hot. :D

What if I remove you and you just create a whole new coach from scratch? Has that been tried?

[ryby6969]

I created a whole new coach when I joined back up.

Would you rather go to a different team next year with a new coach and see if it works?

Nah, I will just deal with it for now. When I can no longer compete in recruiting I may do something then.

[JBHuskers]

Added challenge :nod:

[Papa LoneStar]

I would like to suggest we should have SEC/B1G bowl game matchups....something like

Rose or Sugar: conference champions
Outback Bowl: #2 vs #2
Cotton Bowl: #3 vs #3
Peach Bowl: #4 vs #4
Gator Bowl: #5 vs #5
Holiday Bowl: #6 vs #6


....would be fun....and a little competition for conference bragging rights & conference prestige battles for #1.

[JBHuskers]

Definitely!

I like that too Papa.

Unless I'm missing something, bowl assignments can't be changed except for BCS bowls and then it's only one per conference.

You are correct.

[Escobar]

Why don't we put ND as independent, that way he can still have his yearly rivalry games with Mich St. and USC and the conferences will be balanced with 5 users a piece. That will give you more flexibility in scheduling user games.

[gschwendt]

Since we're down to 10 users, I suggest we go to two conferences with no divisions. That would give us 4 in-conference user games apiece.

[coachmac75]

The more user game the better for me
