Big 12 in position to poach Pac 12 schools?

[fanatical frog]

I really don’t think the conference needs any Pacific Time Zone schools

I guess BY has data or input to indicate the media partners would like it, but anything that happens after around 10 PM CST is wasted on me....I wouldn't watch even if I was interested...except if TCU was playing.

Cal and Stanford will end up in the Big 10 or whatever they will be called. Stanford and USC are both annually on Notre Dame's schedule. With the weird instability of the ACC, that could push a decision for ND to join Big10 at some point in the near future as this is the most stable conference outside of the SEC.

There is just is no way those two Universities get relegated to the WAC or MWC. Too prestigious for that to happen. And I can't really see them in the Big12. Now OSU and WSU I could see in either of those conferences.

I am also assuming that the PAC isn't going to try and "rebuild", if that is even possible.

FWIW, and these days it's probably not much, ND has a contract that states that if they are to join a conference as a full member it has to be the ACC. Again if the check is big enough it will go away but it is out there.

Too bad neither statement is 100% true.
Exaggeration screws with many an argument.

Prove that I'm exaggerating. Making claims without proof screws with many an argument.

Breaking news! Pac-12 TV Deal got done overnight. You can now watch the PAC -12 on the History Channel!!

That would be a stretch, and better than the eventual Twitch, Facebook Live deal they will end up with.

Before the dust fully settles, add Memphis, UConn, Oregon State and Washington State.
No real reason, just do it.

Stanford reaching out

Doesn’t work well for football. Two divisions and a single championship game works the best.

Nope. 2 crossover games and play everyone home and home every 8 years or so - hard pass.

Permanent rivals - 3 per school (not pods), and play 6 of 12 teams each year for full home and home every 4 years.

I really don’t think the conference needs any Pacific Time Zone schools. It would further dilute conference revenue.

So your saying to kick the Arizona schools out until November?

Don't Phoenix and Tucson stay on MST all year with no DST?

I’ve always considered Arizona Mountain Time Zone. I forgot about the daylight savings time thing. In any event, what is left in the Pac 12 is not worth adding.

Yes, which effectively puts them on Pacific time right now.

They can eat [ Finebaum ]..... how many teams did they and Cal block from the Pac 12 because of academics or religious affiliation

Texas Tech, Oklahoma St, and BYU to start

Really Memphis and UConn? You just throwing crap on the wall? What value do they bring?
