    I’m pretty sure that Oregon’s series with Ohio State way out in something like 2033-34 is currently the only other football game either Oregon or Washington had scheduled against a Big 10 school. With that being so far in the future, there probably would be no hurry to cancel the game ASAP.


    What’s more nerve racking is how I haven’t heard anything about basketball games Oregon and Washington have scheduled against Big 10 schools being cancelled. There also isn’t any news about cancellations in sports like water polo or lacrosse, if those cancellations would seriously even make the news. It creates the impression that this OSU cancellation might just be some fluke that Ohio State is cancelling because they’re pussies rather than because UW is being liberated from the PAC.


    What is also nerve racking is how the Ohio State AD said he’s paying $500,000 to UW for cancelling the series. Our only really hope is that the OSU AD is lying about the $500,000 as a deliberate misdirection. I can’t imagine that either side would pay damages if the contract is being cancelled because UW is soon joining the Big 10.

    It wouldn’t shock me if the Big Ten footed that bill. Agree with Race, we should cancel the MSU game and if they want a payout give them their own money back

    Washington needs to tell Michigan State to fuck off

    We got the home game

    I want to see UW run up the score against MSU

    All the Bookeye fans claim they cancelled because they need a 7th home game to be able to pay for their premier skeet shooting program. Or some shit like that.

    8 home games in 2024. Like I said earlier, bunch of slack jawed, mouth breathers in Columbus. I hope the wind changes course and sends a cloud of chemicals to the Horseshoe. Not a call for death, just long term sickness.
    I thought the same thing but was too much of a wuss to type it.

    Also love the Scorpians reference.
    Well done sir.

    The Big Ten told Ohio State to back out to put some extra pressure on Jen to move over. Her thinking was probably to stay loyal but with the rumored really shitty TV deal that’s coming Kevin Warren probably looks at UW and sees the dread on her face. Maybe Oregon wants to leave but they won’t take them without Washington.

    Or…

    They’re just douchebag fake tuff guys

    I’ll take my tinfoil hat off and take your answer off the air pal

    Didn’t Warren take a job with da’ Bears? Even if he’s still with the Big, he’s a lame duck
