The Cali-Florida idea is interesting. I've never thought to do that before. I'll have to check that out next time I roll a new dynasty.

Great Idea with the Cali-Florida Conference,Going to do this.

[DesertFox]

I almost always go with regional conferences. I've done Texas Leagues in the past, but I usually find that it tends to weaken too much, so I usually separate out the north and west Texas teams with the southern ones. One particular alignment I like is to make the ACC seem a little more coastal and regional and turn it into a 14 team league made up of a Floridas Division and a Carolinas Division. Another alignment I've used in the past is turn the MWC into a 16 team super conference with a Mountains Division and a Plains Division.

However, I just started using Mr. Nation's Relegation League settings and am liking what I'm seeing: http://www.operationsports.com/forum...ion-final.html
