In regards to the Big 12/Pac 12 merger idea, how about this crazy idea:

  1. Iowa State and West Virginia ------> Big 10
  2. Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Oregon, UCLA, USC, Utah, Washington ------> Big 12
  3. Cal, Oregon State, Stanford, Washington State ------> Mountain West
    The New Big 12:
    East: Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, TCU, Texas, Texas Tech
    West: Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Oregon, UCLA, USC, Utah, Washington
    You could have the Big 12 championship rotate between Arlington, TX and Glendale, AZ.
