I can understand why Notre Dame opted for the ACC over


the Big Ten. Although there could be a little irony in that if the power conferences decide to form their own division level and opt to abandon the conference structure as we know it today for a pro league (i.e. NBA, NFL, etc) model. If they opt for a pro league model and pool their resources when negotiating the various media contracts, then this organization could shift back to regional conferences.

The group may decide to keep current conference names or scrap them for more pro-like names (i.e. AFC North). It is even possible the schools may opt to eliminate the CCG and go with a NFL-like structure. One division would be called AFC (or whatever organizational name) North/South/East/West and the other division would be called NFC (or whatever organizational name) North/South/East/West.

If Notre Dame is a member of the group, then it could find itself with most/all of the former Big Ten schools in some sort of North conference/division.
