Sure. Coastal Conference is one idea. Thanks for laying that out. It also now seems that we are casting about over much wider possibilities. So I may as well throw yet another (admittedly kooky, but fiendishly simple) idea out there...

The Super Mega Western Conference League
21 Schools/Teams from 8 contiguous western states as follows:
AZ - Arizona, Arizona State
CA - California, Fresno State, San Diego State, San Jose State, Stanford
CO - Air Force, Colorado, Colorado State
ID - Boise State, Idaho
NV - Nevada, UNLV
OR - Oregon, Oregon State
UT - BYU, Utah, Utah State
WA - Washington, Washington State
Break it into two divisions if you like: North & South. Or 3: Coastal, Desert, Mountain
12 game schedule. Teams play certain rivals every year, but rotate through all other teams year by year with a sprinkle of OOC opponents each year. Best 8 teams bracket elimination playoff for league championship.
BYU isn’t leaving the Big 12 but otherwise that could be somewhat plausible. I doubt it would make any more than the existing Pac 12 though because none of the additional schools have brands big enough to increase payouts.

I would watch this league.

Well...that might be because they are not YET part of the Super Mega Western Conference League. 😁
