Realistic Future Conference Re-Alignments?

[Seanzie]

So I'm a realism buff. For my first season in dynasty, I plan on keeping every conference the way it is. However, in my second season, I do plan on moving TCU to the Big East, and Fresno State, Hawai'i and Nevada into the Mountain West.

However, knowing that college football is never static in terms of conference movement, I was also planning on making some changes a little deeper into dynasty mode. For example, I put a lot of thought into what could happen in say, 2018.

I'm going to make Texas an independent. They'll have their own TV network, and I figure they're one school who could do it successfully.

To get the Big 12 back up to 12 teams (after Texas' departure), I was going to add former SWC members SMU, Houston, and Arkansas.

I'll replace Arkansas with Clemson in the SEC, and replace Clemson with West Virginia in the ACC.

In the Big East, I'm going to add UCF and Memphis, and strip the conference of its AQ status.

Other minor ones:

C-USA
Add Temple (from MAC)

Sun Belt
Add Tulane (from C-USA)

WAC
Add North Texas (from Sun Belt)
Add Western Kentucky (from Sun Belt)

Any other cool ideas?

Realistically speaking, Arkansas is NEVER leaving the SEC.

That's not far fetched. I think they thought about it this time around.

I don't think they really did. Maybe for a second and then realized how stupid a move it would be to go to a conference that is blatantly showing favoritism to Texas and kissing their butt.

Never even came up, we are not leaving the best conference in collegiate sports. To be screwed by Texas again. No way.

Has anyone put together a confrence religinment in which Texas,Texas Tech, Oklahoma, and Oklahoma State are in the Pac-16? I'm trying to put it together just to see what it would look like but I can't find one that works.
