this is an interesting point. with the round-robin schedules, a team would need a minimum of 3 conference wins to get bowl eligible, vs. 2 before, assuming they beat their cupcake OOC schedule

if you have top heavy results, there will be more bottom teams that could have trouble getting to bowls since there are only so many conference wins to go around. with divisions, there could be more teams with one loss or no losses before the CCG
