Any new conference realignment ideas?

I haven't tried this, but I've read the rumors/theories of top schools eventually breaking away from CFB to create their own "premier league"/"mini-NFL".

I think it'd be interesting to put the top 16 programs into a single conference, and use the BCS bowls for a playoff among just those teams. The rest of the teams would effectively become the new "div 2" and could compete for their own "national championship" with a 16-team playoff.

lot's of work with the editor, but a really different idea.

A new conference I am going to try. It is sort of a Big East - Big Ten hybrid. Cross division rivals are across from one another.

West - East
Michigan - Notre Dame
Ohio State - Penn State
Michigan State - Boston College
Purdue - Pittsburgh
Indiana - West Virginia
Illinois - Syracuse

I thought about adding Northwestern-Temple and Wisconsin-Maryland teams but that would mean in a four year period not all teams would play one another. Should I make it a 16 team conference? Any teams that should be added or taken out?
