    TCU, Baylor, Houston and Tech would have been the play. Trade LA for the rest of Texas. Those four teams are all P5 worthy and at least play football and basketball at a competitive level while having access to rich pools of talent. UNLV? SDSU? SMU? Boise? Fuck no. The rest of the P12 can play a non con game at SoFi or the Rose Bowl every other year to offset the loss of the LA schools and keep a presence in LA for recruiting. Seeing that Kliavkov has seemed to miss out on the Texas sweep I'd vote to keep it at ten until the B10 calls and then GTFO.

    I like the idea of staying at 10 and playing a handful of games at SoFi every year. One kickoff OOC game and another OOC game every year and maybe a rotation of a couple conference games a year. Means 6 PAC teams per year are in LA
    Fuck playing games at SoFi. Play games at the fucking Rose Bowl.
    I just wonder how that would work with UCLA having a contract there
    UCLA's fans want to play at SoFi anyways because it's a closer drive to their campus.
    UCLA has fans?
    Only kind of


    Stats with no context are ass.
    You need context for this? The names on the left are the football teams and the numbers on the right are the average home attendance for 2022
    Given that OSUs capacity in 2022 was 26,407 I’d say your poorly sourced and cited stats suck ass.
    https://www.d1ticker.com/2022-fbs-attendance-trends/ is my source?

    Idk but it's the only site that I could find with CFB attendance organized. ESPN also lists OSUs games as having a couple thousand more than the capacity you said so I'd say the only thing I know for sure is this is a tricky stat to he exact with. The only reason I used it in the first place was to laugh at UCLAs fans which still tracks

    This.

    I couldn't figure out how half a stadium in CornValley beats the incels of the frozen wheatfields in the wasteland that is eastern washignton.

    As it turns out, it couldn't.


    (My guess, is that the Beavs released sold numbers that exceeded the reduced capacity. After all, it is an Ag College).

    There are high schools in Texas with better attendance than WSU. What a useless turd of a school.

    They got fucked by the state not putting the school in Spokane or Vancouver metros

    Things were different in 1890. Almost went to Yakima, which would've made sense putting the agriculture school there

    Yakima isnt as bad as people say it is. Bale Breaker brewery is awesome

    That said, it's kinda dumpy and a state school there would've been great

    Too late for the bored motto madness?

    For this year, yes. There are many that missed the cutoff, so we could have enough for a new tournament in 2024.

    If only they* would let schools control their own capacity. These laws limiting stadium size are tragic!

    Combining the better half of the Pac-12 with the better half of the Big 12 was the only move in my opinion really. Adding any of the teams the Pac could add would be bandaids on a serious wound. San Diego State looks nice on paper but I think they already have trouble getting people into their new stadium and no one gives a fuck in that town. I stand by UNLV being the only one I'm interested in adding. Nice mid-size market with the Vegas money and gambling aspect being interesting.

    Cal should hire Marshawn and Stanford should just play all their games on the road.

    SDSU plays their games in a major league soccer stadium ffs. Not even the holiday bowl plays there. That would be a loser move.

    Way to miss the point entirely.
