Most straight-forward way:

1.) espn gets the media rights to the B12
2.) Split the ACC between the SEC and the B12.
3.) ND likely goes independent (non-fb probably to the Big East)
4.) Move Kansas and OK state to the SEC.
5.) Add SMU, Rice, Memphis, and USF to B12.

This limits the B10 to only adding PAC schools.

Granted, this presumes that none of the schools below decide to join the B10 instead of the SEC or B12.

-------
(sorted by region - re-arrange how you like.)

SEC - 28
Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma state, Texas, Texas A&M

Florida, Florida State, Miami, Georgia, Georgia tech, South Carolina, Clemson

Alabama, Auburn, Mississippi, Mississippi State, Tennessee, Kentucky, Louisiana State

VA, VA tech, NC, NC state, Duke, Vanderbilt, Louisville

B12 - 18
Boston College, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, West Virginia, Cincinnati, Wake Forest, Memphis, UCF, USF

Iowa state, Kansas state, Baylor, Houston, Rice, SMU, TCU, Texas tech, BYU

Since ESPN and FOX have decided to split the Big 12 again (with ESPN taking the majority of the football and FOX getting the bulk of the basketball inventory), it would appear the cornerstone of this approach has been thwarted.
Also since the Kansas legislature has inserted themselves into realignment, it will be harder for Kansas to move anywhere unless Kansas State has been accounted for.
