A Season of Change
A lot has changed in college football in the last year. Thankfully you’ve found this article that will catch you up to date with the biggest changes.
The Big 10 (18)
- The Big Ten has dropped divisions. At the end of the season, the 2 teams with the best conference records will play in the B1G Championship game. (This means Ohio State vs Michigan could happen in back-to-back weeks).
- 4 new schools have been added to the B1G, bringing membership to 18 schools. The new teams are Oregon, Washington, UCLA, and USC.
- B1G Friday Night is now a thing. There will be a Big Ten Friday night football game every week this season except week 3.
- Channel flipping. The “top 3” B1G games each week have locked in TV times and networks. FOX at Noon, CBS at 3:30, and NBC at 7:30 (all times EST). Sometimes NBC will put their “best” game on Peacock. It is what it is.
The ACC
- They have also done away with divisions like the B1G.
- They have added 3 new schools to the conference bringing membership to 17 schools. SMU, Stanford, and Cal are in the ACC now.
