OREGON to the B1G

When the PAC and ACC entered an alliance with the Big Ten, they didn't realize they were the menu 😲

They should have seen it coming. The conference stand out's mascot is Brutus
 
We need an official acc doomsday clock countdown lol

Well, IDK. Most of me agrees wholeheartedly with you on this, but too many what ifs.

ESPN is getting a great deal on the ACC contract and everybody knows it which is why the ACC schools are so pissed about it.

What if ESPN financial woes continue but they stay viable until the next SEC contract and they just can't give another lucrative contract like they have now. How much less would SEC accept? Or does SEC go shopping for another partner at that time? And if so, will that increase what is available to ACC and Big12(16 or whatever) such that maybe everyone calms down about realignment and are happy with the money available at that time?

Too early to tell, but if I had to guess, I am now leaning to more per team payout parity coming down the pipe in the next decade to the point where I suspect the ACC survives.

A month ago I thought ACC and PAC were sitting ducks and it was only a matter of time, as well as that Big12 seems to be OK and would be just fine. Now with the info that ESPN can't even save the PAC and their financial issues, I wonder.

It will be 6-7 more years before anyone in ACC can get financially serious about leaving (notwithstanding this weird Hail Mary FSU is pondering). By that time we will know the details about ESPN and SEC contract which is where all the money is tied up.
 
I simply get lost trying to follow the 30 something notifications I have since Friday, so I will use this post to reply all. GO DUCKS!!!
 
Empty the trash can by the sink and don’t forget to mop under the toilets. Michigan has lousy aim.

You are the new cleaning crew, right?
Love it. Your program hasn't had a winning season since Mike Riley was your head coach. We will keep you in the basement.

Y'all remember how I said the Ducks are the Clampetts of the PAC...

Meet Jethro.
 
I simply can not express enough the excitement I have for this new conference! Every time I start to think about it I have to pinch myself to make sure this is real. We are in a legit big time conference now. Where more than 50% of the conference is as invested and passionate about football and sports as Oregon is. I've been posting for years that Oregon needed out of the PAC because the programs and schools within the conference just didn't care as much as Oregon and at times the competition got so weak it for one was a detriment to Oregon's resume and brand, but also admittedly some Saturday's just became meh knowing we were about to go whack Cal, Arizona, Arizona State, or Colorado.

These last couple of years when Oregon really made a commitment to football with focusing on recruiting and landing top recruits, it became clear we were really growing out of the PAC conference. Programs couldn't keep up and we were about to do to the conference what Clemson did to the ACC for years.

This is so refreshing. I can't wait to go back to the Big House and beat Michigan again. I can't wait for a second trip to the Horse Shoe and beat the Buckeyes and maybe this time we plant our flag at the 50 yard line. I can't wait to go to Camp Randall and tell the Badgers their rent is due and they can no longer run from us since we absolutely own that program. O yes sports just got a lot more exciting.

BTW, how good is your women's volleyball team?
 
When was the last time Nebraska won in the Horseshoe?
Was I bragging about Nebraska being too good for the conference ? Didn’t think so But good deflection
