Perhaps the Service Academies would like to be a part of the P4 if they could compete in an academically based private school league. If not this P4 could easily stand as a 3 x 5 model. Pittsburgh is only quasi state operating like a private. Or if your wanted 18 you could add Temple, S.M.U., and Tulsa should the academies say no.

Now for the State Conference Models:

Big 10:

East: Connecticut, Maryland, North Carolina, Penn State, Rutgers, Virginia

Central: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Purdue

West: Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Wisconsin

SEC:
North: Kentucky, Louisville, Tennessee, Virginia Tech, West Virginia

East: Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Georgia, N.C. State

South: Alabama, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Mississippi State, South Carolina

West: Arkansas, Louisiana State, Mississippi, Missouri, Texas A&M

PAC:
North: California, Oregon, Oregon State, Utah, Washington, Washington State

South: Arizona, Arizona State, Cal Los Angeles, Colorado, Southern California, New Mexico

East: Cincinnati, Iowa State, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, Texas, Texas Tech

That's an interesting model. I see you allow for some diversity in structure with the SEC having a different number of teams than the B1G and PAC.

Am I missing something, or is Southern Cal left out of the Private Confederation?
