Re: Conference Realignment

The PAC has assets (PAC-12 Network) and liabilities (Comcast), plus a spot in the college football playoffs. The 2-PAC (WSU and OSU) have two years to rebuild the PAC to at least 8 teams before they lose their NCAA recognition. What the 2-PAC is missing is a TV agreement. I think the Mountain West ...

Re: Conference Realignment

I can see each side's reasoning. The ACC probably considers that Florida State, Clemson and North Carolina are as good as gone so they're positioning themselves for that eventuality. That they are angry while they remain is of little concern to the president of Wake Forest and Louisville. Plus it gi...

Re: Conference Realignment

The Big Ten is far more likely than the SEC but notice how I said down the line. You know what that means right?

Re: Conference Realignment

What are you talking about? Seriously? I never said the SEC has interest in any current Big 12 teams. Oh let me see... If the BIG and SEC are going to ransack the BIG12 it's NOT gonna be for getting in the way of the playoffs. The good thing about the BIG12 is that they dont have a USC or Texas tha...

Re: Conference Realignment

If we assume that the pac-4 are the 4 most valuable teams, or at least 2 of the top 6 or so, then they need to determine who the 6 most valuable teams are in terms of TV viewers and add them. It stands to reason that this Pac-10 would be more lucrative per team than if any/all of them were to join t...

Re: Conference Realignment

One possible strategy for Stanford and Cal, along with WSU/OSU. They get a 2-year grace period for remaining a conference (with less than 8 members), so that means they could exist as a 4-team conference for the 2024 & 2025 seasons. Play a double round-robin in 2024. Pick the 4-6 most desirable prog...

Told you there was a ton of behind the scenes stuff to kill the PAC-12. Obviously there is a case to be made. Will be interesting.

Re: Conference Realignment

If it looks like the B1G model that was put forth a while back, or the model the SEC have talked about for 9 games, in football, each team would be assigned 3 yearly rivals, and the other 12 teams would alternate years. I doubt they'll give the 4 former PAC schools each other, as that would forestal...
