Conference Realignments for Dynasties

Hey guys, I was trying to find a thread with some ideas on conference realignments in future years of my dynasty but I was unable to find any. Does anyone have any suggestions, I guess this is mostly fantasy and up to whatever you want to do but thought I could use some suggestions.

I am confident that we are headed towards 4 super conferences but I just can't decide who will go where. It is now the beginning of my 3rd year in dynasty, last year the only changes I made were those already set IRL such as TCU to the Big East. Now I've decided for year 3 to add Texas A&M and FSU to the SEC. I just signed as the DC at Kentucky so this makes things much more interesting. Instead of shifting all the conferences around I decided to take things slow and do a couple big moves but leave it at that. For instance with all the Miami issues going on I decided to drop them from the ACC and they are now Independent. I am pretty confident in my conferences right now but not sure what kind of moves should be made next year. I have some ideas of my own but I would like to hear what you guys think and if you have any more ideas.

Options for 2014 and future years:

-Clemson/Virginia Tech and Missouri/another to SEC bringing total to 16
-Texas (unless Independent), Texas Tech, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State to PAC 12 making 16
-Big East and ACC combining to 16 (Not sure who would be in the super conference)
-Big Ten adding 4 most likely Notre Dame (unless they go to Big East/ACC), Cincinnati (again possibility for Big East/ACC), Missouri (unless to SEC), not really sure who else to bring in so could use some help there.
-Big 12 would add a few teams, maybe Houston, SMU, and Rice but would lose their BCS automatic bid

EDIT: I could also see the Big East/ACC making their decisions based on football and basketball. Pretty much taking all the ACC teams now (minus FSU, Miami, and VT/Clemson) and adding 7 possibly being Pitt, USF, TCU, Louisville, West Virginia, Connecticut, and either Miami back in or a Rutgers/Syracuse) I also forgot to mention that I could see Maryland taking an invitation to the Big Ten along with another ACC/Big East team

So after the realignments the BCS will only have 4 automatic qualifiers (wish we could do a Plus-1)

Sorry to anyone who's favorite teams I may have left out but I feel this may be the direction we are headed. Any more help would be great!
