My biggest gripe is how this going to effect everyone's scheduling. We finally got it to a point with 16 teams that we are able to get rid of divisions and play everyone twice within a 2 year time span, but now thats going to have to be reworked again. Unless the conference moves to an all P5 schedule for 12 games, a 18 or 20 team conference is going to be hard to work with.

You're headed towards 2 24+/- team conferences, with 3 divisions apiece.
Big 10 East: Penn State, Rutgers, Maryland, some others
Big 10 Central: Ohio State, Michigan etc; the "main" Big 10
Big 10 West: USC and the rest of the Pac, some others
SEC East: Likely Clemson and some ACC teams, with maybe SC and Fla
SEC Central: Alabama and most of the "old true SEC"
SEC West: LSU, the Miss schools, Arkansas, OU, the Texas schools, Mizzou
Conference schedules- play everyone in your division, a rotation of 1 each from the others, maybe more. You might lose all of your OOC games.
Playoffs- ignore the current NCAA model. You will have conference divisional rounds, with maybe 1 wildcard alongside divisional winners.
Conference champs will then play a college 'superbowl'.
Everyone that doesn't get into these 2 superconferences, most likely, will become a different tier.
