I am going to wait to do my final charts until the Big 12/Pac 12 bleeding is stemmed. But here is the tentative Big 12.

This would be the best case for the B12. If this occurs, Yourmark deserves a contract for life. Masterfully played if this is the outcome.
It's not truly conference realignment season until fans start talking geographic pods within theoretical 24 team super conferences...!
I can just imagine how nuts Gold & Blue Dude would be going right now...

Conference just look at our division.
So Texas Tech would be in the mountains.
And Iowa State would be part of the northeast.
That is SO obviously right.

I don't know: Baylor had all or part of the Big 12 title but only one natty. Kansas has one the conference many times under Self but only 2 natty's.

Thus assumes we will get several ACC teams. That may happen but probably a 50-69 chance at best. If we did, I cannot see that we would want BC or Syracuse. On the opposite coast, we don't want OSU or WSU. However, I do like some of the suggested members, not that I really expect we will get Pitt or Louisville.

BC and Wake will not be part of a power conference in 10 years.
The Big Ten and SEC are likely to add 8 (four each) out of this pool of 11:
UNC, UVA, VT, Clemson, FSU, Miami, Notre Dame, Oregon, Washington, Stanford, NCState.
The three not chosen above plus Louisville, GT, Pittsburgh, Duke, AZ, ASU, and Utah will create 10 marketable teams that will want to be in the Big 12. As of today, we have 7 spots for those 10.
That will leave three of the above plus Cal, Washington State, Oregon State, Wake Forest, Syracuse, BC, on the sidelines.
Basically trimming the 69 teams in the P5 as of this fall (68+ ND) into 60.
It's not impossible that the best of those squeeze their way in if a conference pushes past 20 (say, to 21 with three divisions of 7 teams or 24 with four divisions of 6 teams) in which case they would be re-absorbed but I don't see that being the next step as it would require an exponentially improved TV deal to justify and some of those do not cut it.

The key takeaway is not the teams, although I do think BC skips in, but the fact that the three conference set up now includes the B12.
They are not talking just 2 super conferences, but 3 with B12 being the winner of the PAC, AAC, ACC, B12 group. That is a positive change.
