Comissioners and Conference names: BCI: Twelve Pack;  BHGP: Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants; TSK: The Empire (working title); BECB: Conference TMZ; HoS: House of a Thousand Sanctions; RCR: The Cult Of Les Miles.

Round nine saw five more BCS AQ programs come off the board. We scooped up the Eagles at 49. The Sisterhood and The Empire picked up two of the three remaining Pac-12 programs in Colorado and Oregon State. This year Boise State and Utah will just miss being conference mates in the Mountain West, but not in Conference TMZ, where the Broncos join the Utes as conference members. 

House of a Thousand Sanctions continues to load up on private schools, adding Vanderbilt to a conference that already claims USC, Notre Dame, Syracuse and Brigham Young. Finally, The Cult of Les Miles is doing its best to get the old Southeastern Conference gang back together, scooping up Georgia Tech and Ole Miss and giving Red Cup Rebellion five programs that have played in the SEC.

So the question is where do we take the Twelve Pack from here? There are four picks before our pair of picks at the 10/11 turn. Who you like to join the Twelve Pack?

Here are the remaining programs left on the board:

- ACC (2) -- N.C. State, Wake Forest
- Big 12 (4) -- Baylor, Iowa State, Kansas State, Texas Tech
- Big East (3) -- Cincinnati, Rutgers, South Florida
- Big Ten (4) -- Indiana, Minnesota, Northwestern, Purdue
- Pac 12 (1) -- Washington State
- SEC (1) -- Mississippi State
- Notable Non-AQs -- Army, Central FloridaEast Carolina, Memphis, Navy
