Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Pac 10 again? You crybabies just might get your round robin schedule back.

VERY interesting rumors circulating at #Big12 Media Days about #SunDevils and #BearDown dumping the #Pac12 for the Central Time Zone games for more national exposure. Stay tuned for much more conference realignment as we get closer to TV renegotiations. pic.twitter.com/BKjYJOuNa9

    Not far enough. Cut the rest of the dead weight and bring back the PAC-8.

    I remember when we solved the whole thing by having the Pac 8 be the West and the Big 8 be the East and Utah falling back into the WAC

    They should have listened

    Not far enough. Cut the rest of the dead weight and bring back the PAC-8.

    Lets see. 7 conference games and 5 out of conference games. Good lucking scheduling those 5 ooc games. Liberty, UMass, Idaho State. You're as fucking stupid as Larry Scott.

    See ya in the playoffs!!!!11!111!!!

    We used to do 4 non cons a year and had awesome schedules


    No one wants to load up their schedule with a bunch of non con P5s. Axe the SEC.

    Things change all the time in college football

    Even the SEC wants P 5 match ups now

    The B1G has to play power 5 teams

    Not quite, the BIG recently changed their stance on NO FCS.

    The SEC plays 8 conf but many have a permanent rivalry match-up with a non con P5, like Florida - Florida St.

    Same with the ACC plus 5 teams play Notre Dame.

    It would be tough for 8 teams to try to beef up their schedules to match the other P5s where most already play 9-10 P5s as it is.

    You can kiss the playoffs good buy along with all the top west coast recruits. (already happening)

    Pac 8 would be the WAC!

    Lol imagine dropping Seattle, Bay Area, LA, Boulder for Lubbock, Waco, Lawrence, and Ames.

    yes, that is something that the ADs and university presidents need to really pick up on... if 2 teams find that Larry Scott's innovative business model is repulsing our own teams to the point they'd rather get more exposure and money by joining a fraternity of those cities you really need to take action toot sweet.

    Yeah we'll have to wait a few years but the prevailing trend is towards an 8 team playoff. That means win the PAC 8 or PAC 10 and you are in even with 3 or 4 losses. Imagine being able to schedule tough again out of conference because it will all come down to winning your conference. Schedule might even drop back to 11 regular season games to accomodate the extra playoff round. In a PAC 8 you could have a round robin conference schedule and 4 OOC games based on A-B-C-C opponents. A boon for the fans who dont want to see North Dakota or Portland State anymore.
    I doubt that 60ish P5 teams are going to be willing to give up a game just so 4 more teams can play in a play off. Pac 10 works, like it does for the XII.

    I think the "prevailing trend" might be more toward 4 X 16 than 8 team playoff. But I'm not any smarter than any of you dumb fucks, so fuck off.

    Pac 8 is a pipe dream. More likely in a 4 X 16 alignment.

    but then again, if 10 is so cool, why would the XII be thinking about 12? Assuming this rumor is at all true.

    Couple of comments. I could live with a PAC 10. Round robin 9 conference games and ABC out of conference schedule. As far as going to an 11 game regular season. Essentially when we schedule North Dakota or Portland State that is giving up a game right there because the stadium is half empty. 16 is too many for a playoff as there are not 16 worthy teams each year. You could make a pretty good case for 8 worthy each year though.

    Edit: I don't like the expanded 12 and 16 team conference idea. You should play everyone in your conference and determine a true champion over the season. The conference championship game is a stupid unnecessary idea that is TV driven and not that many people care as indicated by in game attendance.

    I'm fine with two 8-team divisions where you play the other 7 schools and 2 crossovers. Have the Pac-8 and leftover MW garbage meet in a conference championship game.

    This almost gives me wood.

    I'm mainly sick of the need to go undefeated. College football is the only big time sport where there's such pressure to win every game just to be in the conversation at the end. The best teams in the NFLdrop a game or few with extremely rare exceptions. The only undefeated NFL team of my lifetime wasnt the best team at the end. Wild card teams have dominated the playoffs and even won the super bowl. Dominant NBA teams win about 7/8 games, equivalent to 14-2. In the majors it's about 5/8 or 10-6.

    Shrink the conferences back down, give everyone 7 conference and four nonconference games, and expand the playoff and there would be no reason for the big time programs not to play each other.

    I think the fix is relatively simple and everyone would benefit.
