sorry for the rudimentary map, but its the best i could do
The Big 12 will fold when the Big 10 soaks us KSU and KU.
OSU and OU will then join the SEC...keeping it the best in the world.....seriously, send the SEC after the Taliban...done.
UT, Baylor, TTech and TCU will join the Pacifist 12 making four sixteen-team leagues.
Sorry Iowa State, youre done. But there's hope, there will be a mid major division of the Former Big East, Cusa, Mac, MWC Sunbelt and WAC.
There will be 64 teams as well, divided geographically into 4 groups. They will have to add teams from 1aa like UTSan Antonio to get to 64 but it will happen.
Here is the scenario.
4 teams from the mid major divisions occupy the bottom 13-16 seeds.
4 conference winners of the MAJORs play these 4 mids.
The remaining 8 will be two runners up from each league.
The conference champs get a "bye" by playing a mid major, so there is merit in the regular season, while the Runners up have to play a tough one to get back in the scene.
Make the matchups sexy, while geographic. YOu can rearrange 5-12 to make it happen.
Taking a hypothetical year, here goes.
1 Stan P12 champ
2 Bama SEC champ
3 FSU ACC Champ
4 OSU B10 Champ
5-12 LSU SEC
5-12 OU SEC
5-12 MICH B10
5-12 WIS B10
5-12 ND ACC
5-12 WVU ACC
5-12 ORE P16
5-12 USC P16
13 UNI Mid Major NE Champ
14 USM MM South Champ
15 Boise MM West Champ
16 Tulsa MM Central Champ
Stan
Tulsa
OU
WIS
WVU
Mich
OSU
UNI
BAMA
Boise
ND
ORE
LSU
USC
FSU
USM
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
what about the other bowls? They matter because the winners of the other bowls get their team ranked 17-36 in the next year's preseason. Win your damn bowl and you start better next year......that will make Louisville vs Central Florida matter. Then you won't have folks saying that their preseason spot is what left them out of the BCS game.
Thoughts?

KSU is not an AAU school. B1G will not allow it if it's a package deal. They will take Iowa State (AAU) before they take KSU.

Neither team brings an added market. SEC will expand east, not west.

UT, Baylor, TTech and TCU will join the Pacifist 12
PAC 12 will never admit any of those four except Texas...and that's only if they lose that POS network.

I sure hope not. Some of are fortunate to pull for teams that are high profile and highly successful. Others pull for teams they love just as much and support just as much that with no fault of their own have mediocre at best history and success.
Look how Kansas,for Pete's sake, with an incredible pedigree in basketball almost got shipped off to the Mtn West a few years ago after it looked like the Big 12 was going to dissolve.

Is it just me or does it look like a gator with two tails is about to eat the B1G?

Then we could have a true SEC East/SEC West. Bring OU, OSU, and Missouri to the west, move Auburn/Alabama to the East. No need for permanents any longer in this scenario, or is this too unbalanced?
SEC West: Arkansas, LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M
SEC East: Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vanderbilt
SEC West: Arkansas, LSU, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M
SEC East: Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vanderbilt
