Lots of stomach churning insanity in this article, complete with "brand" a few times. I don't get how we? could "dilute" and provide substandard football to a conference with fucking Northwestern and Indiana, not to mention Nebraska being a shit heap

Stanford is considered the next-best Pac-12 football prospect due to excellence established under Jim Harbaugh and David Shaw

um, maybe if you ignore shaw's latest trajectory that point still stands.


if you're talking tv viewership potential, then 'ok' you are in the bay area.


arent our utes better?

What unbridled arrogance. GMAFB.

I wish the PAC would reassemble, get its shit together, and get back to the time when its teams routinely embarrassed mid-west white trash in the Rose.

Fucking one-team conference talking massive amounts of shit. Cal makes no sense. UW and Oregon would upgrade that conference bigly. It’s hilarious how they pretend that’s not the case.

Well its becoming clear that the 81% value of college football scene revolves around about 40 [if you are generous] teams that are either in contention in some fashion and have fan base that cares and are in a media market that matters.

So in that sense there is a lot of dead weight from a media marketing standpoint that advertizers do not want to pay for, and ultimately that will mean the end of conferences as we now know them. [big 10 SEC round robin craziness where they have so many teams that do not play each other with any regularity)

In the meantime, we will see the xpansion of the playoffs which will have the effect of dramatizing the top 20 teams which will be on the way to a major realignement of who gets paid what in the long run in college football from a media contract standpoint. Will be interesting. Those teams, fan bases and administrations that have the obligation to fund football because of sunken costs and infrastructure, or simply CARE about football because it MATTERS will ultimately be the only teams that get paid by the media.

In the short run it matters what conference you are in because of payout which is why USC, UCLA, Texas and Oklahoma are moving but in the intermediate term it probably doesn’t matter.

As always, its the last man standing that matters.
