1. It's not REQUIRED that you play 12. If you're losing money, don't play, or use it to schedule a payday game.
2.The number of equivalencies isn't changing, so there's no Title IX issue. If one extra game causes a few injuries, the third string finally gets a chance to play.
3.The season will be ending at the same time so the playoffs finish before Xmas. The extra game will either be an early start (maybe even before classes start) or during a bye week. Football, with all games on Saturday, doesn't impact studies nearly as much as baskteball.

Anyway, it's not final yet. The plan was given tentative approval by the council during its meeting Monday, but still must be approved by the NCAA Board of Directors when it meets April 28.
