If the Big12 sits on their hands, we could be in trouble.

The reason this won’t happen is the money.

I don't think the money will be that different. As I mentioned that is the only

On field performance and fan support certainly don't point toward the Pac 12

It basically comes down to UW/UO/Cal/Stanford. I’ll take my chances

bigbossbyu

Let’s be real. It only comes down to Cal if Stanford actually cares about them.

Yep. Don’t know why people think the Big 12 is more stable than PAC 12. It isn’t

It is. P12 has no stability left

Why would any B12 school do that? No chance

The pac has better schools, cohesion, population, history, and brands. The big

You are off on it all but academics.

Plain and simple you are wrong. Your points for the PAC10 have no $$$ tied to it

7/3/22 2:23pm

The money disparity between big 10 is huge. It is not going to be that big with

johnnybyu

Early estimates are 40% more $ for BIG12 vs PAC10. That is bigger than you imply

The_Cuss

7/3/22 2:40pm

Like is said these early “estimates” are the only advantage the big 12 appears

johnnybyu

7/3/22 2:43pm

Only advantages? Try geography and stability.

lol the most unstable conference 6 vs 2 defections is now the most stable

All of the big 12 teams applied to other conferences last year and no one

johnnybyu

Last year! Welcome to today. USC and UCLA are GONE. It’s a sinking ship now. LOL

The_Cuss

7/3/22 4:02pm

Yes...and since then they've buckled down and cemented the B12
