Lots to come out of day one. One of the big topics with the commissioner was the 
championship game and divisional alignment. Below is an excerpt from an AP 
story:
"While geography will be considered, it's not the top priority. Competitive 
balance and rivalries trump that.
"I don't know that we'll be able to preserve every trophy game or every rivalry 
game, but I can tell you that we're going to go through great lengths to make 
sure the traditions and the rivalries are respected," Delany said. "I've seen 
other expansions where you expand your conference, you don't increase the number 
of games and play each other less."
Nebraska athletic director Tom Osborne said "there's a framework there that's 
pretty good" for the division alignment, although nothing's been decided."
