That's a not a new thing. Nebraska, Maryland, and Rutgers are still getting a reduced share from the B10.


At least two of those schools shouldn’t be in the Big 10 to begin with. And it isn’t working out much better for the third.

Understandable considering I’m not sure either has done anything of significance besides receive checks.

Them wanting out isn’t a surprise. The question isn”what next?” if they get it. Doesn’t look like the SEC or Big Ten is taking on new members.

All of this chaotic nonsense is futile. SEC will continue to blow out and humiliate non conference foes.

I think the Big Ten would take FSU if they were available. They would be ahead of Oregon and Washington for sure.

It might be a blessing in disguise for the Big-12.

1. I would rather the Big-12 move east with potential leftovers once the ACC blows up.

2. It is clear a lot of the Pac-12 schools are complete headcases. Do you really want Utah and Arizona St. in your conference? No wonder the PAC screwed things up so bad.

ASU is run by an idiot.

Utah probably feels an obligation not to kill the Pac for taking them in despite the other members having no hesitation to abandon them if a better deal came along.

Nothing like taking less money and killing your national exposure...


Imagine how that decreased exposure will result in less quality recruits. And once it starts streaming only the portals will be full. We might need to have a college portal draft there will be so many

I hate all this shite, but this almost makes it worth it. The Pac 12 could be one of the power conferences right now had they not been snobby motherfrickers.

Hell, even after they fricked up the Texas/Oklahoma deal they still turned their nose up at BYU and potentially TCU, due to religious affiliations.

frick them.

IIRC, TCU isn’t actually a religious institution anymore yet it got shite on because of its roots as one.

Yet I bet SMU would have been welcomed in because they are a hoity toity rich kid school despite Methodist being in the name.

Sounding like the Pac12 might survive this now somehow Oregon is the key to holding the conference together and it sounds like their #1 priority is a clear sight to the playoff which staying in a watered down Pac12 would give them

What a roller coaster.
