Hmm...well, there's only 119 I-A teams, so where's #120 coming from? As to realignment, basically keep the 12-team leagues intact. Move all the independents into the Big East (may or may not include ND, depending on whether you'd want them in the Big 10 instead). Move BYU and Utah into the Pac-10 as has long been suggested to make 12 there. Move Boise, Fresno, San Jose State, Hawaii, and Nevada into the MWC (call it the WAC again for history's sake), then add the leftover WAC teams to the Sun Belt for a final 12-team league. This will mean that whoever is team #120 ends up in either the Big Ten or Big East depending on where you want ND to be. (Probably Big East simply because I can't see the Big 10 taking on any sort of new I-A school and they'd only expand for ND, though there's always been speculation that Missouri could move into the B10 and Arkansas moves to the B12 to rejoin its old SWC rivals in Texas, but then who'd move into the SEC?)
