Ducks to Big XII?
- Thread starter CBlackwellRN
- Start date
As long as they sign a long term agreement with the conference. Would be a bad look for the big 12 to take them, then they leave in 5 years
I've heard a few people say the "bad look" comment. Here's how I see it. Big 12 said they would take 3 more (Oregon, Washington, and Arizona seem most coveted). Even worse case scenario the big 10 in 2030ish comes and takes Oregon and Washington. Then the big 12 can take Utah and Arizona State which was the original plan to begin with. NO ONE thinks that any school would say no if the big 10 or SEC come calling so I just don't see the "it would look bad" part. Even worse case scenario we get the 4 corner schools and are in awesome position to scoop up 4 ACC remnants after the Big 10 and Sec rip that conference apart.
Good god the frequent flier miles are going to really rack up while being in this conference
I’ve read two more articles just this morning that Yormark is still totally in love with UConn as a possible addition. How much financially does this impact all of the teams currently in the conference if he were to get this done? What exactly does the new media rights deal say about bringing in non-Power 5 teams and what it would cost the current members? Why would any of the teams currently in the conference agree to give away money that they’ve just worked so hard to get, especially the four new teams? The reality is UConn brings zero value to the football programs and will only drag down the SOS. Seriously, can you imagine the excitement when Oklahoma State is playing at UConn or how many people from Baylor or Texas Tech will make the road trip?

It is difficult to tell what is bs bc college football mods go crazy will realignment talk but my guess: Arizona is next and that may be it at 14 teams
Oregon-Washington still at 50-50 bc they must think Big10 or even ACC might happen so they are going to slow play Yormack and he may just move on

why would ACC be better GOR until 2036 at 20M
vs Big XII until 2031 at 31M
Awful lot of travel which definitely affects play on the field. Will be interesting to see how we handle it. I hope well.
I wish they’d just create the inevitable super leagues for football and make the rest of the athletic department separate from it.
No reason why Pitt shouldn’t be in a conference with the northeast schools and UCF shouldn’t be in a conference with the other Florida and Georgia schools. But, football is the “straw that stirs the drink” so the ACC and Big 12 are gunning for schools in the Pacific Northwest…
Assessing each remaining school’s Pac-12 Panic Meter
With Colorado officially shuffling back off to the Big 12, the Pac-12 appears in jeopardy. What is every remaining school's panic meter?
