College Football Conference moves?

So I'm an NFL fan and do not follow college football at all (except for my D1-AA Florida A&M Rattlers)

I'm reading the articles but it's not really explaining why. So...

Why are they moving conferences?

What will the new conference gain?

Thanks in advance. Go Jags!

PS: I also have another question concerning Tablets...

    HOLY SH*T! i found a REAL jaguars fan!... sorry dude, i had to put that out there. now, to answer the question, conferences move. it happens not often, but its not rare. new conferences form for a multitude of reasons. some move in because the other conference is being taken over by 1 team. then other teams move in fear theyll be stuck without a big conference. others move because of geographical and/or rivalry reasons. the list goes on.

    I think it's corporate junk. It's a mess, a disaster waiting to happen. There will be no more regional rivals, no history involved with rivals. This was just a move to commercialize college football even further. Mock my words, years from now people will say this is what killed college football.
