Seriously, are there any non-power schools that could contend for a spot in your conference?

Cincinnati to the ACC or SEC? Connecticut to the B1G or ACC? UNLV or New Mexico to the PAC? Anyone to the XII or is it a dead man walking?

I honestly don't see any of the non-power schools on the B1G's radar. The only exception might be if they're only able to land KS in realignment and want to even out the divisions. In that case, I could see adding UConn, but short of that.....

I also don't see the SEC paying much attention to them either unless it's a scenario similar to the B1G's above.

As for the ACC, it would depend on what ND wants to do. If ND wants a non-power school (say Navy) to get an invite, they will, outside of that, maybe UConn or Cincy (just to get into B1G country).

The PAC is a different story. Assuming they miss swing and miss on the big boys in realignment, it will depend on their mindset. BYU would be a nice addition but who knows how the "intellectuals" will react to their strict codes. After that, CSU? Boise? Air Force? Maybe take a flier on Houston?

UNC, FSU, GT, Miami, Clemson, NCSU, and VT index against the SEC, and Duke, WF, and probably UVA are along for the ride. There's no advantage to taking a hit to hurt the B1G more. It would just widen the gap to their benchmark (the SEC).
