Gotta be a conference game. Would be hard as hell for that many teams to find an OOC game in late October.

If the MWC goes in late October/early November...........not really.
Are they planning on playing OOC games?

I'll take CU football any way I can get it (other than playing the goats on halloween-that's not safe).
When has UCLA been ready for a season? Then you have that epic come from behind victory by Josh Rosen against Texas A&M in the Rose Bowl.

Stupid PAC. All the other conferences have this covid thing figured out.
Am I doing this right ?

What the hell are they doing on the farm?
"Stanford’s Jacquish & Kenninger Director of Athletics Bernard Muir in the past has threatened to take Stanford athletics in a different direction if the University’s athletes went beyond amateurism, including moving the school to another NCAA division. Muir told Congress in 2018 that if Stanford student athletes were allowed to unionize, the school “might opt not to compete at the level we are competing in.”

Stanford Emerging As Lead Dissenter On Pac-12 Football Return
Sources inside the Pac-12 and the Cardinal program indicate the Cardinal is strongly opposed to the proposed Nov. 7 timetable for a return to football.

Stanford has the endowment and they have the wealthy donors that if they wanted to simply drop FBS level football they could, and it wouldn't create a huge hit to their budgets.What the hell are they doing on the farm?

Similar to the Ivy's they don't need to win football games to stay in the public view or maintain their reputation. Dropping football isn't going to change the number or quality of their applicants or impact their non-athletic funding.
Considering how screwed up the PAC has become, how expensive and complicated things could get if they have to start paying athletes, and some of the other compromises that could entail all while wiping away any remaining veneer of amateurism it wouldn't be a huge shock if 10 years from now they are either FCS using the Ivy league model (no official scholarships but subsidizing athletes with other financial assistance) or simply not playing football.
I initially read that as Santa Clause. Very different likelihood of progress.

Just another notch in the fire Larry belt.
If he gets too many more notches in that belt, he won’t be able to hang himself with it.

The way the last few years have gone that belt might not fit around Mark Mangino's waste anymore.

Such a public relations move. All coaches, players and staff are tested.
It's ok for players to tackle and talk sh*t to each other the entire game but god forbid if a coach takes their mask off to communicate.
Yes, it's quite shocking that a league that will fine a player for wearing the wrong socks will make coaches wear masks.
The WA schools, AZ schools, Utah and CU should just get together and start scheduling games. When there's a lack of leadership combined with a lack of cooperation in an organization, sometimes stakeholders have to strike out on their own.
If 6 schools start scheduling games against each other, watch how fast the others will start to fall in line.

Oregon schools and USC are all good to go as well and UCLA quickly changed their tune once it leaked that they were holding things up. It's 100% an issue with the Bay Area now, and maybe more specifically, the academic elites at Stanford throwing a fit.
screw the Trees and move on without them

Anarchy is awesome
Now, now - call it a revolution.
Can't, it would undo the cultural fit.
Friendly reminder that there are 3 CA teams in this conference, including 1 in the Bay Area. 10/24 is their target date for 8 games.
Meanwhile, at Pac 12 HQ...

I would like to know which schools president was the one pounding on the table for Larry Scott. There is always one guy who has everyone’s ear. Larry Scott was the one they thought the conference couldn’t live without and at that salary.

Larry is bending over backwards to keep Stanford and Cal happy-I think there's your answer.
