Conference Realignment Line Up 2024

College Football has seen a whirlwind of conference jumping which the likes college football fans have never seen. All the movement likely results in the end of Pac-12 – at least as a “Power” conference. The Pac-4, as they are now snarkily known, still has four teams. Will they try to rebuild with San Diego State, Boise, and others? Will they become Independents? Or cave and jump in with whatever conference that will take them (Mountain West?).
