Is this all you have to do on your anniversary? You've said this already on another board. We get it. We don't care. This is probaly what's wrong with your marriage loser. Now get in there and

The Pac 10 is a viable conference and Washington did not win any games two years ago. There are two Pac 10 teams that we played in football (since that seems to be the sport you are referencing) over the past five years that gave LSU a run for their money. If you look at baseball, the Pac 10 has a team that is currently the one seed. Just like the SEC, the Pac 10 is looking to add televison markets to generate more revenue.
The colleges are looking for the very obvious thing, MONEY!

Thanks for removing the useless topic!

Nebraska leaving, I can understand - way more money than Big 12 in the Big 10. This whole Pac - 16 thing, I'm not so sure about. As I see it, two things come to mind - 1.MONEY - I have heard many rumors that a huge TV contract would be extended for this conference. 2. Prestige - the Pac - 16 would have a conference playoff game, something that theoretically will bring additional money, and bolster the winner's (and loser as well) chances of participation in a BCS game, particularly the championship game, something the SEC has had a stranglehold on the last 4 or 5 years. The reality to me is it is the old PAC - 8, which is not partularly strong right now, especially with USC's sanctions, and a collection of the Arizona schools, Texas, and Texas' bitches, maybe minus Texas greatest traditional rival, A&M, and the OK schools. This is a tremendous collection of schools over a great geographic area. Whether this works commercially, only time will tell. To me, it truly shows that politics and money make strange bedfellows!
