Well Bowl me Over

Recently there has been massive realignment in college football resulting in fewer “major” conferences with more teams. I wonder if Congress will get involved. Might a Senator from a jilted school get the DOJ/FTC to investigate the idea that these super conferences — that lack any regional basis and involve interstate commerce — are a restraint of trade and represent increased concentration in the college football market and specifically valuable TV broadcast rights?
