What's this?

The P5 becoming the P4 is what I heard almost 20 years ago, it's still the

best way to do this. Especially if the G5 end up with their National Championship and playoffs.

Bowlsby could be the P4 Commissioner and the B12 could be absorbed by the remaining 4 Power Conferences. Everyone would be better off, everyone could get more money and more exposure. You should expand the P-4 geographically, The PAC 12 needs at least 4, the B1G needs at least 2, the ACC needs at least 2. That's a minimum of 8 teams. I am not sure about the not yet assimilated B12 teams making it in, but Conferences could also go to 20 if they want to.

This is my first choice, but if they can't get this done, I am open to eliminating the Conference Championship games as long as if two teams from the same Conference have to play each other in the first round.
