"From a purely on-field standpoint, it would probably behoove the Pac-10 to take the SEC approach and replace those 10 extra conference games with 10 games against I-AA foes."

Actually it is only 5 extra conference games with each game showing up on 2 schedules with an end result of 5 "W"s and 5 "L"s. He makes it sound as if the conference is risking 10 "L"s against the "sure thing" 1-AA "W"s.
