Big12 doesn't break up but instead starts new "Division IV" as follows:

SEC
BIG10
ACC
PAC
Big 12
(perhaps with a few call-ups)

Remaining schools stay at FBS division
AAC
MWC
C-USA
MAC
Sun Belt
(perhaps also aligning with the Big Sky conference and a few other call-ups)

This would elevate college FB like never before

Each would have their own, separate playoffs and each would host their own national championship

This is where things are heading, so why wait?

I know this would change recruiting like crazy. The G5 would be toast.

Yes this is what I came up with first but after looking at it it would be totally unfair, so I move around conferences to balance out a bit
I live in Houston and I believe the recruiting would improve a lot and for other non p5ers with a two division set up, we would not be toast at all
I know this will never happen but I found it interesting to move around conferences into divisions instead of just moving around individual teams
Ken d , thanks for being truthful and I know this is totally NOT what p5ers want to see, it would tear down what y,all have built and still building up
College football has been playing for over 100 years and never has gone to doing anything like divisional playoffs so I don't see it ever happening soon

If all non p5 conferences were in their own division or playoffs they would be considered FCS, not sure why ?,but if the b12 and PAC 12 were added then it would stay FBS, it would be a bold and aggressive move indeed, so the p5 division would have its championship and the other new division would also have its own champion, so at this point the networks would want both divisions champs to play each other, the payout would be NFL level
