  • I'm happy with this, call it PAC 12 lite but it's good to have a good conference in the west.

      My guess is they don't. UNLV will be #7 and AF #8.

        That could make sense, but they might also opt for one or both of the required additions be from outside the MW so as to increase the geographic footprint (and media interest) and avoid the additional fees for taking more MW schools. Memphis if they can get them, UTSA, etc.

          It’s more MWC heavy than PAC12 lite

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

            Also, I feel for USU. Hope they get picked up in all of this. SLC is a relatively big market and Utah is an increasingly lucrative recruiting ground.
            Also take Utah back please.

                    I would like one as well, but I am not sure the West Coast cares enough about football for there to be the revenues to keep up with the behemoths and right now Oregon, Washington and USC seem pretty committed to keeping up with the behemoths.

                    I can't wrap my head around the West Coast schools in the Big 10 or ACC and I am convinced there is going to be buyers remorse as time goes on. We all assume there has to be a rational solution to all of this but I no longer have any idea what that is.

                    It is an interesting time to be alive......How does this settle? How will the war in Ukraine end? Who will be the next greatest male athlete in the world to decide he was really a woman all along? How could I forget this basketball experiment at BYU going on right before our very eyes. Interesting times indeed.

                          It would be a nice league if it was the current PAC-6 + Stanford, Cal, SMU, & Air Force or UNLV = PAC-10.

                              No loss leaving the hodge podge truck stop conference anyways. Dismantled Baylor pretty easily.

                                Not a conference game.
