What Should Have Happened back in 1991 The Big 8 and SWC merge and add UTEP to their roster of teams The New Conference is named the Southwest 18 There divisions are North and South North Colorado Iowa State Kansas Kansas State Missouri Nebraska Oklahoma Oklahoma State Arkansas South Baylor Rice Texas A&M SMU Houston Texas Texas Tech TCU UTEP The football schedule would be that you face your 8 division foes and 1 foe from the other divison, Then the two division leaders at the end of the season go to a championship game that's location would be determined at the beginning of the season by a lottery betweeen the cities of Denver, Houston and Dallas. The lottery works in a way that for every year that you don't hold a championship, your city would be added again. The South Division winner would go to the Cotton Bowl, the North Division winner to the Fiesta Bowl.
