  1. they will go back to the old BCS or pre-BCS system before there is any anti-trust

    people want to forget that conferences started these bowl games like the PAC 10 and Big 10 and The Rose Bowl and they have the right to control what they started

    the fact that some of those bowls decided to get together and cooperate to make some better games is really not a "trust" or "monopoly" issue mainly because any other conferences are free to get together and start their own bowl games and get an offer for them and keep that money

    it is similar to when UGA and OUsucks went to court to break what WAS a monopoly with the CFA and television where schools and conferences were prevented from signing their own deals.....THAT was a monopoly

    the fact that some conferences decided to cooperate on bowl games to switch teams around and were GENEROUS enough to include G5 programs that never contributes shit towards starting or building those bowls is not a monopoly situation and if anyone thinks that is is or if the courts were stupid enough to rule that it is the "reward" will be the PAC 12 and Big 10 saying "fuck off" we are going back to PAC 12 and Big 10 in The Rose Bowl and then other conferences doing the same like it used to be and the NC will go back to being the MNC and the G5 conferences will get jack shit unless they can find a sponsor and a stajium willing to have them meet up and get paid

    same with TV contracts......the Big 12, SEC SEC SEC, Big 10, PAC 12 and ACC  get paid what they get paid and that does not prevent the MWC, MAC Sunbelt, CUSA, or AAC or anyone else from trying to go get the best TV contract they can get

    if they do not like how the BCS works they are free to start their own bowl and invite any teams they wish (but of course all the P5 have obligations for their top non-playoff teams already spoken for and same with playoff teams).....but the AAC and the rest are free to leave that anytime they wish and form their own bowls and try and "plwy with themselves" or even see if P5 teams will "play with them" after their contracts run out
