The PAC12 Celebration Thread

[LA Ute]

The article you link announcing the official division splits: an SC article. Not a PAC 10 article.

Everything flows through SC. Even your "breaking news" is reported as it pertains to SC.

Fight On!

Reportedly Utah's first home PAC12 game will be against USC. I do think that is cool. And SC is the most storied football program in the PAC, and one of the most storied in the country. Just so you know my mild smack is not sincere.

No way will USC agree to that.

South Cal will agree, but then DDD will spin it that it is just everyone bowing to the power of South Cal.

Well, LA Ute does think it's cool.

I do indeed. My Utes will administer a beat-down to the Trojans at RES. What could be a better way to start out in the PAC12?

The key to understanding Triplet is that even he does not take himself seriously. He's much more lovable when you get that about him.

[Jarid in Cedar]

It is good to see everyone bowing at the USC altar, tripping over themselves for the chance to be associated with the pillar of the Pac 10. It seems that in this entire PAC 10 expansion deal, every school will measure its success or failure by how closely it is associated with SC.

Fight On, Reality!

I can see why Hayden wants to assure a game against Cal every year

I love that your snarkiness is always so good-natured.

I actually meant that seriously. Maybe I need to practice my snarkiness. Or my seriousness. Or something.

sounds like USC and UCLA will receive $2 mil more than the other 10 schools until an annual revenue threshold is met.

If the revenue expectations are even close to being realistic, then that threshold isn't ever going to be an issue and all teams will be paid equally.

At least, that's what I got from skimming the article. Maybe one of the attorneys on the board can help out one of the commoners.

Doesn't bother me. The L.A. TV market is huge and they are the draw in that market. (Mainly USC. I get that, Triplet.)

They are the draw in every PAC 10 market.

[Top Ute]

No way will USC agree to that.

Too bad USC has no say in the matter.

You are fooling yourself.

I think you meant were. Lane Kiffin is going to make South Cal fans dream of Paul Hackett. 30k strong at the Coli to watch South Cal go 6-6? As long as it produces someone as awesome and lovable as Petros it will be a win-win.
