I generally hate arguing over semantics, but I disagree on this point - it's a pretty material difference that totally deviates from what the article is actually saying. P5 has a very specific definition and when I saw your headline, the first thing that I thought is, "Interesting - the P5 conferences are creating a divide with leagues like the Big East?" The article was then completely different. Plus, we're on a message board that is entirely dedicated to conference realignment, so we as a group knows what "P5" means probably better than any other group on the entire Internet (so specificity definitely matters with this audience).

I've come up with a good one: traditional power conferences. I think that's a good catch all.

"surviving traditional power conferences"

Southwest Conference, Big 8 and Big East football don't exist anymore.
