UC Davis joining MW for all sports except for football paves a clear path to FBS membership I think this move is just the beginning. I think there will be another round of movement in the FBS that will result in new conferences. It's no secret that Stanford, Cal, USC, and UCLA are not in love with their move to the ACC and BIG. The travel across country for league games makes no sense. I think within the decade a new PAC or "California Conference" will take shape. I could see something like this:
UC Davis
Stanford
Cal
UCLA
USC
San Diego St
Fresno St
Sacramento St
San Jose St
CalPoly
Others to consider: UNLV, Reno, Oregon St,
