Partly because they're leaving, partly because they are just so much ahead of everyone else
That changes the linear fit obviously so (among non-LA or continuing PAC teams) the PAC Network appearances vs expectation are
- Arizona -7.12
- Cal -5.61
- Stanford -5.45
- Arizona St -4.40
- Washington +0.44
- Utah +0.57
- Oregon + 2.49
- Colorado +5.30
- Oregon St +6.62
- Washington St +7.22
So (ignoring LA schools) it breaks into 3 groups
- Huge, top markets (Arizona and SF Bay schools)
- Smaller markets but engaged fanbases (Washington, Utah, Oregon)
- Non-involved fans outside huge markets (Colorado, Oregon St, Washington St)
