The networks are doing a great job of promoting fighting between the P12 and B12, while they themselves burn conferences to the ground…

It seems like the trouble is that the remaining piece of the pie is not big enough to sustain a third major conference. The existence of the Pac12 and the Big12 each precludes the other from leveling with the SEC and B1G, even before the PAC's two biggest name schools and their biggest TV market left.

The real question is when do the networks trash both the SEC and the BIG and create an independent conference with only the real contenders from both those leagues.

Not paid attention to how corporate mergers work? Lots of fat to get cut from both the B1G and SEC.

They are committed until they aren’t. AD’s don’t make the decision anyways. USC and UCLA were committed. Texas and OU were committed. They all say they are up until the news breaks.

I saw one bowl game scenario that makes so much sense and would save most bowl games, but obviously it won’t happen.
Play the bowl games before the playoffs. Add a little bit of a March madness feel to football. You could still expand the playoffs, but maybe just to 6 or 8 instead. Adds another data point against strong schools from other conferences. Obviously the top 4-8? Probably wouldn’t play each other, but it would still be a tough game with added chance of upsets and maybe helps a G5 or non “P2” show their worth and potentially shake up the rankings heading into the playoffs.
