That format is an interesting idea, but I am not at all a fan of teams playing each other twice in the regular season. The single game format for rivals is what I like most about college football. If you lose to your rival, you have to sit through a whole year before you can get another shot at them. It makes the games have even more of a meaning.

Why stop at four divisions?

Ohio River Division

  • Ohio
  • Miami

Western Reserve Division

  • Akron
  • Can't

Maumee Division

  • BG
  • Toledo

Ontario Division

  • Buffalo
  • Eastern Michigan

South Shore Division

  • Western Michigan
  • Northern Illinois

Boonie Division

  • Ball State
  • Central Michigan

Now you can schedule your rival 4 times!

This format would only work IMO if it was somehow attached to a "playoff system" for the MAC Championship. Every team only plays each other once, but overall record is taken into consideration for each division.

"East" victors play off against each other, "West" victors play off against each other. Winners play each other in the Championship. I almost like that idea in the sense that there'd almost have to be 1 flex game at the end of the season that would be determiend after the season has happened, and the last games of the year, and those "rivalry" games do have that much more meaning.

But this is a very boring topic, because it's never going to happen. Unfortunately we're in that awful off-season time.
