I like it. As others said, additional chance for a quality non-league opponent.
Is the reason they won't make it an official challenge mainly due to difficulty scheduling around early-season tournaments and non-league rivalry matchups, that sort of thing? I guess I could understand that limitation.
I still think it could work, just spread it over 3 or 4 days like ACC/Big Ten does. Don't have to make it like Big 12/SEC all-in-one-day thing. As long as it isn't like Big 12/then-Pac-10 was when games were scheduled over the course of like a month.
No biggie if it's just a pact and not a challenge, doesn't matter to me, but it seems like it'd generate more media attention as a challenge.
