I'm on a mobile, so I can't screenshot it, but I got this far:
Mizzou, aTm, WVU, and NC State to the SEC.
Texas, Tech, OU, oSu to the PAC
Rutgers and Notre Dame to the B1G
That puts 16 teams in the SEC and PAC, 14 in the B1G, and 13 in the ACC. That's where it gets tricky. I could see the ACC adding Cincy, Louisville, and UCONN to get to 16.
At that point, I sent Houston, Boise, BYU, USF, SMU to the Big XII with ISI, KU, KSU, Baylor, and TCU.
I just don't see how the B1G gets to 16. KU would be a decent choice for 15. That would leave them taking KSU, ISU, BYU, or a Texas school, and none of those are great fits. For that reason, I could see the B1G stopping at 14. I could also see the ACC stopping at 14 and sending Cincy and Louisville to the Big XII.
The 4 big conferences could all have conference championship games which would essentially be the first round of the playoffs. From there, you have a 4 team tourney.
