The assumption is there will be 4 16 team super conferences.

Can there possibly be a 5th (almost) "Super" Conference?

Assuming (big assumptions) that Mizzou and WVU find homes...and that the Pac 16 brings aboard the 4 Tx/Ok schools from the Big 12...and that Rutgers finds its way to the Big 10 finally (or potentially the ACC), and that UConn ends up in the ACC...

It would seem that the best course of action would be for the remaining Big 12 and Big East football schools to hook together, and also absorb the best of the C-USA/MWC crowd, to form a 16 team conference.

Would the winner of a conference made up of the teams below be worthy of a 5th automatic BCS qualifier? If no...would the winner of this conference be worthy of an automatic 5th BCS qualifier arrangement that allowed ND to take it if it is ranked higher than the conference champion? (which would be a way for ND to keep their BS indy but not quite indy fetishtic arrangement)...

East
Louisville
USF
Cincinnati
ECU
Temple
UCF
Memphis
Villanova

West
Kansas
Kansas State
Baylor
Boise State
San Diego State
Tulsa
TCU
Iowa State
