Currently the P5 has 64 teams. The new P4 would have 72 teams. Of course this means no independents would be a member. Supply and demand would determine, which conference would fold and, which 8 teams would be added to reach 72 teams. 07-coffee3

18 teams is not a conference. It's two conferences where teams occasionally play teams in the other division. And "supply and demand" ignores regional and travel considerations. Is the ACC going to grab Iowa State because they were left out? Is the Pac12 going to add Wake Forest if the ACC is absorbed elsewhere?

Boards and presidents vote in expansion. There is no scenario where this makes sense. There is no Oz behind the scenes controlling these votes. These magical even numbers are fantasyland message board fodder.
