My guess is that Syracuse and Pittsburgh will be glad to play against all the big schools of the Central Division (or whatever you want to call it). Huge schools in huge TV markets ought to keep the attendance figures up... and I would expect Syracuse could get matched up with UConn, Villanova, Georgetown, and St. John’s for some of their 6 out-of-division games. (They probably won’t mind missing out on Providence or Seton Hall, who would likely play DePaul and Marquette instead.)

As for the Western Division, maybe we could call the divisions “Atlantic,” “Eastern” and “Midwestern?” How would you feel about a “Midwestern” Division in Ft. Worth, Cincinnati, Louisville, Chicago, Milwaukee and Indiana?

I can not believe no one has said anything about the current level of Villanova Football. Villanova has played at the Division 1-AA(FCS) level since they restored the sport in 1985/ Georgetown also has been playing at this level for about the past 10 years. What Villanova is thinking of doing is moving up to Division 1-A (FBS) and play in the Big East.
