What a day! With the addition of USC and UCLA to the B1G, dominoes is back.
I will start off with a bold prediction: the SEC, B1G, ACC, and ND will not be shifting around any further.
The Pac-12 is where we will begin. I believe they have the upper hand over the Big 12 due to having better brands and more flagships.
I expect the Pac-12 to expand back to 12 by adding Kansas and Texas Tech. Kansas is a state flagship that brings its basketball brand, and Tech is the #3 team in Texas, and the #1 team in West Texas.
The Big 12 will respond by adding two more schools: Memphis and USF. Memphis and USF both represent an eastward and southern push for the league. SMU and Boise State are both candidates but politics (SMU) and location (Boise State) rule them out.
The AAC is up to bat. However, there isn't really any of value to add and the league will be at 12 members in both football and basketball and stand pat.
As a result, the MW, MAC, Sun Belt, and C-USA stand pat.
