Ten sounds like a lot. As I think about it more, I think 6 or 7 sounds like a good amount. One game from SEC, Big 10, BigXII, and Acc. One G5/6 game guarantee. Then a wild card or two.

Wild card would provide the flexibility we would want with how big these conferences are. There may be a time where we want 2 SEC games in a week. I wouldn't want it be just the second best SEC game, but I would hope we could get marquee FCS games in there. Or a sicko game if two 0-7 teams meet. These could even be for the games with the smallest spread (a true toss up). We could even use it for independent games so we get Uconn in there. Or we scould say GameDay/Big Noon's location is one of the wild card slots

I did a quick look, and these are what I think week 1 would look like, if we did this strategy. P4 LSU @ Clemson Georgia Tech @ Colorado Texas @ Ohio State Syracuse @ Tennessee

Potential G5/6 UTEP @ Utah State (close spread)

Potential Wild Card Idaho @ Washington State (The Battle of the Palouse rivalry game) Sacrament State @ South Dakota State (Preseason FCS #14 @ #3)

I ignored all week 0 games. For conference affiliation, I just went with the home team. There are other notable games, but I tried to have a balance (Sorry Notre Dame @ Miami). If you did want ten, you can add these 3.

Appalachian State @Charlotte (close spread) Georgia Southern @ Fresno State (close spread) Notre Dame @ Miami

Anyway, I hope that visually gives you some idea of what it would look like. I am fine with any number between 5-10. I am favoring 7, just because I think that gives a good variety without being too much (and if you get all 7, you can call it a touchdown or something).
