Commissioner Yella Piss National College Football League

SEC loses 2
Pac loses 5
B12 loses 7
B1G loses 8
Acc loses 9

Unless I can't count which is likely.

Wouldn't have expected pac12 to fare so favorably.

I’d trust your Maff acumen over mine. Definitely some tuff calls once you get down to the borderline programs. Feels like if you’ve won a NT post WWII you’re in but then what to do with Minn?

But fuck it I say. If we’re gonna NFL college ball then I only want to watch big time programs. That’s my deal - take it or leave it.

I think what this tells me is that the pac 12s branding problem is not component pieces but how they're put together.

One piece is that conference strength is typically judged by the top few teams which just hasn't been good for the p12 recently. The pac12 is pretty bad this year but even when it was deeper the lack of national title contenders held the perception back.

Obviously east coast bias/ only playing games when most of the country is asleep hurts. Not playing games at times your own fans can attend is ridiculous.

I think the key things the conference needs to do is play games when folks are awake instead of pretending we have to play at midnight because Larry Scott couldn't negotiate a meaningful tv deal and market the programs. Make uw look good. Make usc look good. Make oregon and ucla look good. We need to make it clear that the teams here are powers. Arizona will benefit when kids aren't fleeing east. When talking to people about football they don't know any details or history about the pac 12 and that is remediable.
