Once the playoff structure is in place for a couple of years, the BIG 12 will see that they need a championship game to strengthen their league's chances of making it to the 4 team playoff. The selection committee has already stated that this will be a heavy factor. In a few years the BIG 12 will have to expand IMO. They have options, they just need to be willing to accept a couple of outsiders. To name a few options:

Cincinnati
BYU
Boise St
Utah St
Houston
New Mexico


Also, football is king in collegiate athletics. With that in mind, there is no way UConn is going to let their brand sit in a conference with (in all due respect) ECU, Tulsa ect ect. UConn will eventually be in the B1G or the ACC. They understand the $$$ of all of this. They are losing millions by being in the AAC. Now that Louisville is in the ACC, you can bet your arse that UConn is actively looking for a new home.
