    "In the world of the new hypothetical 18-team mega conference you would think that USC, UCLA, UW, and Oregon would be permanent scheduling partners with a rotation through the rest of the members for the remaining conference spots. It would create a nightmare for all your other sports who now have to occasionally take road trips to Rutgers or Maryland but when football is the only concern then that’s a sacrifice the administrators are willing to make."

    That's a good article by Max Vrooman.

    Good news is one day UW will get offer to join B10 as them and SEC each get to 24 teams as the two superconferences.

    Bad News is it appears it won't happen during this go round. Big 10/Fox ran numbers on every Pac-10 school to see what they could bring to table and determined there was two (or SC and they brought along UCLA as a bone for them) that were must haves. If there were any others that moved the needle enough and financially penciled out, they would be in the Big-10 tonight.

    I agree, UW appears to now officially be a have-not.

    The idea of Washington and Michigan State being in the same conference is just wrong.

    California actually has a similar-styles law on the books. So it leaves me wondering how that will play out for UCLA, a state school. #notatugcomment

    This is gonna be a fight here in Washington on this topic. Canzanos tweet about lawmakers being overly involved is accurate. Don’t ask me how I know.

    What was the joke about Oregon being in the SEC west?

    It's because @trublue and @46XiJCAB are white trash and want Oregon to be this island SEC team.

    They are delusional and don't understand that the SEC hates every state on the west coast.

    That’s only until the SEC discovers how many confederate flags there are on lifted trucks just 30 minutes outside of Portland.
    If more SEC football fans made it past the fourth grade and had a better understanding of actual history, Oregon would have been invited to the SEC decades ago. I don't know if Oregon is the whitest state in the country, but it's gotta be close. And, historically speaking, deliberately so.

    Oregon won’t even be the whitest state in the BIG let alone the US.
