Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

It would have inspired them to implement a 4 team playoff, which would eventually be expanded to 8.

From 1968 until the Bowl Alliance went into effect, the Orange Bowl included the Big 8 champion.  The other team was usually either the SEC runner-up or the ACC champ.
Clemson might have been playing OU in the Orange Bowl.
OTOH, there were times during the pre-Bowl Alliance era when special arrangements were made.  #1 Nebraska playing #2 Bama in the 1971 (season) Orange Bowl while #3 Big 8 runner-up OU played SEC runner-up Auburn in the Sugar Bowl is an example.

It depends who got to pick first. If it was the Sugar, they'd take Clemson.

The Orange Bowl was pretty loose after the XII came into play. Only after about 2002 or so did they make their perma-deal with the ACC, and they also had some sort of agreement with the Big East before that fell apart. Then the XII started going to the Fiesta a lot more often too.

One rule I'd have is that a P5 team needs to schedule at least 10 other P5 level teams each year.  No 9 and 3s amd certainly no 8 and 4s.

Isn't that the rule they already approved of?

Not that I know of.  Tennessee played only 8 P5 teams this past year, all in conference.  They routinely play nine, not ten.

Hahaha, they petition their own CONFERENCE?!?  What a joke!  I knew about ND and BYU, and that's fine I guess....but damn.  If Fresno freakin' State is P5, then 11 of us would be, too.

The Big 12 began play in 1996.  All the way to the end of the Big 8, with three exceptions, the conference champ played in the Orange Bowl.  And the Big 12 champ played there after the 1996 and '97 seasons.
