I don’t like them, but if they join then the Big 12 is a legitimate power conference for Colorado.
Nah. Oregon and Washington joining would create a solid conference. It'd be great if it was Oregon, Washington and Utah, IMO. Three legitimate top 25 football programs added to a mix of CU, Oklahoma State, TCU and TTU. It'd still be third best, but it'd be respectable by any standard.

Since we’re dreaming the best combo is Oregon, Washington and Utah. Idk how Arizona weaseled their way into the convo but I’d take Utah any day over UA.
The part about the duplicative Utah markets… does that matter anymore? There’s no conference network w/ the B12 so I see this just about brand value.
Arizona adds to the basketball prestige more than anyone else, but I agree. CU basically moving and staying with Oregon, UW and Utah would be a good sign

That is probably the only way SDSU would get out of having to pay the larger buyout to MWC and get into the PAC at this point. Haha
No you weren't.
Consolidation of Oregon, UW and Utah into the Big 12 would effectively get rid of the P5 and create a true P4 and be much better for everyone involved for the CFP. 4 Autobids and 8 at large
You hearing Big12 or 10?
A couple things...
Is there verbage with the expanded playoff auto bids that conferences have to be "as is"? I would think 25% of the teams leaving would have literally every other conference bitching and keeping to cancel the PAC 12s auto bid, G5s and other P5s alike. Especially without the LA schools CU, and mystery team 4 and being an 8 team conference. If that's the case, the whole argument that Oregon and Washington have the easiest path to an auto bid may be in question. That certainly makes the likelihood of them jumping ship higher, being more than just a money decision.
Another thing, I get the feeling that the Oregon/UW package deal isn't as much of a package as we think. IMO, they pushed the packaged deal to be more appealing for a 2 team expansion to the B1G. Things have changed and it's nut cutting time. I guarantee they'd both slit the other's throat to get on the life raft. They can always posture for the B1G in a couple years still.
Finally, hats off to RG and the administration for having the balls to jump. There are some teams that sat on their dick and will likely be ****ed. We may be going home with a 7 now, but if we didn't beat better teams to the table, we may have lost our spot to Oregon/Washington and would be stuck at home jerking off into a paper sack.

playoff autobids go to the six highest ranked conference champions. i don't believe it specifies which conferences at all, so that allows for any degree of realignment.

The PAC2 has a nice ring to it.
So, the Colorado BoR meeting getting televised on PAC 12 Networks?
Would have good tv ratings

I post stupid ****
Did you believe they wouldn't?
It's a dog eat dog world...someone is wearing milk bone underware.
In Game Theory, I believe this is called first mover’s advantage.

Apparently Oregon is going “to do some other things”. Makes sense.
Kidding, guy has no idea what to do w/ Oregon.
What does that even mean? Impose their will? We're talking about adding them to the same conference CU has just moved to because it would be the best thing for the conference.
What has Oregon done over the last 25 years?
(Other than being, at worst, the #2 program on the west coast)
I prefer my 'going home with the 7 first vs jerking off into a paper sack' analogy, but first mover's advantage rolls off the tongue better so we can stick with that.
Hot off the press!
