The conference game set up depends on if you are trying to get your 1st team in a playoff or your 2nd team. If it stays at 4 teams, then top 2 need to be in CCG.
12 teams - 2 divisions works best with 5 division games and 3 cross-division, that gives a chance to play every team every other year. IT also gives 4 home/4 away for balanced scheduling. Also, no one says the 4th OOC game has to be FCS or bottom G5 teams, it can be a team where you can win but still have competition. A chance for the conference to go better than 5-5 for that game slot.
14 or 16 teams can work fine with no divisions and a few permanent rivals. Pods also for 16. Pods with 14 teams is stupid unless it is two "pods" of 7.
PS. Until someone explains the details of what the scheduling alliance actually is, I wont lose sleep over it.
