I'll never be able to find it again, but I saw a clip the the other day of the Wisconsin coach pushing for more regular season games. Don't know how widely held that opinion is among other coaches, though.
I've heard Denver coach advocate for this on the CHN podcast. He cited an increase in revenue. I doubt most schools earn much revenue at all from a couple more home games. The road team traveling for those games loses money. (Some like Brown almost certainly lose money from a couple more home and a couple more away games.) I get that schools are desperately scrapping for anything to boost their revenue sharing budgets, but this change seems self-serving for those proposing it.
