Yes, Oregon has years when they draw more than Iowa State, but Iowa State still fills their stadium well even when they are awful. I looked up 2008 (randomly), and Oregon averaged 59,000, and Iowa State averaged 47.000 (during an awful year). However, part of that was before Iowa State expanded their stadium to their current capacity due to demand (edited). FWIW, I do think that fans in the stands do eventually equate to eyeballs on TV. So, I do think that expanding with a program that averages more fans per game is a positive thing. Time will tell.
yes 59000 in a 54000 stadium.
like i said if they expanded they would still sell out.
 
apparently Kliavkoff said the Pac would announce their decision on expansion before the end of the week

Waiting on someone else to tell them what those decisions are? Makes sense.
 
All of this screams of desperation by the PAC on this. They know now that the Big12 is dead, the PAC is the weakest conference. Trying to latch on to BIG/ACC to try to force others to keep them relevant and not poach them.
 

Im cool with this. Pray that it sticks
Old Pitt coach bout to break WVU fans hearts again?

It's a desperation move by all 3 as the SEC is going to distance itself ($) and none of them have a move that can keep them in spittin distance financially.

Chances are they're going to stay at 12
 
So if what @Thiefery was saying yesterday about the # of teams needed to stay in the Big12 for the GOR to be in play is correct (sorry man I didn’t bother to read the article you posted), then this move to add by the other conferences would nix that and free up Texas and Oklahoma, yes?

What move? There is likely no further expansion coming.
