USC and UCLA to the B1G?

Muleshit was scared of Utah and Oregon, obviously

That's funny, but it does certainly beg the serious question "did he already know this?"

[NickZepp84]

We about to get some Big 12 and Pac 12 merge.

[ChocoLab]

He better have or he's gonna be reeeeeally mad.

But I could stand to see tOSU, Ped State, and a few others beat up on USC every year.

[Mazeppa]

osu calling the Pac XII.

[BobStoopsReal]

I can see going after USC, but UCLA?

[SoonerKA1999]

Fresno State.

[SoonerKA1999]

It appears to be somewhat official

[SoonerKA1999]

If the Big12 were smart, they would go after Utah, Oregon, Oregon State and Washington right now.

Or maybe Cal, ASU, Zona and Utah

[NickZepp84]

I can see going after USC, but UCLA?

Package deal like OU and Texas.

[MikeLucky]

So, the play here is the PAC, big12, and acc get into a room together. WVU, Cincy, ku, and UCF to the ACC. The remaining big 12, BYU, and remaining PAC merge.

[NickZepp84]

If the Big12 were smart, they would go after Utah, Oregon, Oregon State and Washington right now.

Or maybe Cal, ASU, Zona and Utah

Or Pac goes after BYU OSU, Tech and Cincy.

[sempersooner]

Great......now I won't get ANY work done today!! Gonna be looking & laughing at TBOW memes from here on out........

[UCO4Sooners]

If the Big12 were smart

Hasn't been proven. But, they may have doubled their IQ points when Bowlsby left.

[Jakel]

This is a hilarious shiitshow of an idea. PAC is a massive pussy league. I can only dream of watching these pussy's playing football in Oct or Nov in MN or Lansing .. lofl...
Now the other way round.. is a GD vacation to the coast for UM, tOSU, WI... just lofl

[Jett]

If it happens, WAC 12 would become the best G5 conference in the land. I could see streaming services like DIY and Garden tv become their distribution channels.

[OrlandoSooner]

Moves about cornering the big $$ deals. We are going to end up with 3 different classifications:

1 The Haves (SEC and Big10)
2 The Have Nots (PAC, Big12, ACC)
3 The Never Were (all others)

[Jett]

osu calling the Pac XII.

Would Stanford or Cal pick up the phone? If it happens, it would be a marriage made in heaven. The paddle section and the reindeer humping moron would be accepted with open arms on the West Coast.

[makila]

It's picking up a ton of steam. Supposedly they've notified the PAC 12. San Jose Mercury News is who broke the story.

https://www.mercurynews.com/2022/06/...n-the-big-ten/

Crazy that the only *away game USC would play in both the Pacific or Mountain time zones would be UCLA. Every other game would be central or eastern time. Logistically have fun with that one.

[LakeSooner]

Good I am ready for a super league and say goodbye to the worthless NCAA

[makila]

Big 12 should just go grab some and get to 16 teams.

[Jakel]

Wow.. now...what must the awesome 5 star recruits be thinking now...eh? Enjoy 95% of your games East of the Mississippii and coupled with Northern states weather.. lofl.. wonder what their parents are thinking right about now... pants shitting

[MJSooner]

I hope somebody remembered to ask the Rose Bowl if it was okay.

[Widescreen]

Riley: OK guys, let's get on the plane for our game in NYC. And Pennsylvania.

[really]

LR didn't know anything about it until he read it on here

[Widescreen]

The news comes less than a year after the Big Ten and Pac-12 -- along with the ACC -- announced a strategic alliance following the SEC's additions of Texas and Oklahoma. That alliance was light on substantive action from the start, and the Big Ten's poaching of two Pac-12 powers only further undermines the notion that the leagues will work together in combatting the SEC's growing hold on power in college sports.

I was wondering about that. There really isn't much need for a Big 10 PAC 12 alliance if two of main PAC members are officially in the Big 10 fold. And it brings the Big 10 up to parity with the SEC at 16 teams (after OU and Texas officially join).

[soonerBAS]

looking beyond football the road trips for softball, baseball, basketball ect... will be a nightmare for those smaller sports, looks like the cost would drain an athletic budget, especially if they are paying a football coach 11 million a year.

[Me And My Butt]

Big 12 should just go grab some and get to 16 teams.

Bwwaahhhaaaa. More likely the remnants of the PAC pick off 4 Big 12 schools.

This would work for OU….Big 12 would vote to dissolve. We’re out penalty free.

[NickZepp84]

This may make a buy out for OU and Texas a lot less because the PAC and Big 12 will want to negotiate whatever goes on there.

[NickZepp84]

Either way both will merge. The PAC 12 network was such a disaster that they may not have financial standing.

That’s what i said…post right above you. Keep up.

Sucks for all teams Big 10 and those two shit at west coast schools.

[makila]

I wonder about agreements already in place between big 12 and BYU, UCF, Cincy and Houston? Interesting potential gotcha in Big 12's ability to maneuver.

[Jett]

I hope somebody remembered to ask the Rose Bowl if it was okay.

The Rose Bowl will be relegated to hosting the G(?) National Championship game on New Year's Day.

[Boomer.....]

[Middle Aged Man]

So, we are going to have college level 6A,5A,4A,etc.,each with their own championship. This actually will work out well, giving a lot more schools the chance to win a national championship.

[Highfligher]

If the Big12 were smart, they would go after Utah, Oregon, Oregon State and Washington right now.

Or maybe Cal, ASU, Zona and Utah

Something like that. But first things first. Tell BYU, Houston, Cincy, and UCF "nevermind"

[OU48A]

The stronger brands of the ACC may be next in line to move with some moving to the B1G and others to the SEC.

Follow the money.... With their small fan bases, the SEC gains very little by adding osu, Tech, ISU, KSU, TCU or Baylor.

[BobStoopsReal]

Big12 and PAC=BIGPAC

[Highfligher]

Man, playing for USC and UCLA is gonna suck.

[TheBorenSupremacy]

Glad we're not getting left behind, but man, college sports are cooked. Hope we all had fun.

[Mazeppa]

Great......now I won't get ANY work done today!! Gonna be looking & laughing at TBOW memes from here on out........

[OhioBornSoonerBred]

hmm

[soonergrad]

IF (a big IF) there are not two superconferences, then I see Arizona, Arizona State, BYU, Cal, Colorado, Iowa State, Kansas, KState, OSU, Oregon, Oregon St, Stanford, Texas Tech, Utah, Washington, Washington State being the new Big Pac Conference

[ChocoLab]

Wow.. now...what must the awesome 5 star recruits be thinking now...eh? Enjoy 95% of your games East of the Mississippii and coupled with Northern states weather.. lofl..

And what about game times? People here hate 11:00am games.. How about a nice 9:00am kickoff?

[NickZepp84]

SEC and B1g will be picking up teams from that group too.

[Ogreuahole]

Do you really want Stanford, Cal, Colorado?? Better options out there. ACC leftovers - UCF, Cincy etc.

[SoonerKA1999]

Something like that. But first things first. Tell BYU, Houston, Cincy, and UCF "nevermind"

Why? BYU is a great program to have with a good TV market. UCF is upcoming. Cincy is decent. Houston is decent. Remember it's about markets too.
