Kansas doesn't bring a lot of TV sets to the table.  (They don't have a big
following in the KC metro area, though one could make the same argument about
Rutgers and NYC, I suppose.)

I wonder if college football might wind up following the lead of the major pro 
sports and allow a 16 team conference to have conference semi-finals before the
conference championships?

Think of a conference that consists these divisions:  

Nebraska           
Iowa
Minnesota
Illinois

Wisconsin
Northwestern
Purdue
School 1 to be named later

Michigan
Penn State
Rutgers
Indiana

Ohio State
Michigan State
Maryland
School 2 to be named later

Nebraska might play Wisconsin in one semifinal game while Michigan and
Ohio State play in the other semifinal.
