HLB Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 You left out - AZ State vs. UNLV USC, Utah and AZ State will win. Colorado, Cal and Washington will lose. AZ, Oregon State and Wazzu should win, but I think they will lose. Oregon has a slight chance to beat Ohio State (which I hope happens), but I'm not expecting them to do so. Once again, the PAC12's OOC results are going to be woeful and play a key role in keeping them out of the CFB Playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorcho Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 oh yay, Utah gets to play an instate rivalry game where inevitability if they win, then its business as usual, but if they lose then the sky is falling, additionally they will likely sustain a major injury or two just because. If BYU leaves for the Big XII then maybe this game will have more meaning going forward, but as of today its doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scscsc89 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Utah-BYU is the Pac-12’s best rivalry — partly because Utah fans don’t want it to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its beyond stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've never lost to Hawaii at home, and there's not much to suspect the Rainbows will be especially good this year. They're thin as paper in the skill positions. Beavs by 14. Aztecs haven't beaten the Cats since 1979. Zona didn't impress in week 1, but SDSU needed a comeback to beat New Mexico State. Cats by 6. Wazzu will beat PSU coming off a disappointing loss. Cougs by 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely helps. At least now there is a frame or reference for conference comparison based on how BYU finishes in the Big XII. it will be interested to see how it works in the future with the plan to play 8 conference games, a crossover game with the B1G and the ACC and then an annual BYU game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to see them remaining as a Power 5 conference with that line-up, but equally hard seeing them losing the Cotton Bowl tie-in (or the NY6 dropping JerryWorld.)

I am guessing everyone wants them to die, and it would be a bad look to be poaching a partner. I don't think anyone goes after their teams right now, but if they become a nuisance, any of the P4 leagues can knee cap them by taking a couple of their remaining members.

PAC MAN Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 I think BYU will be more amped for tomorrow’s game against the Utes after the Big 12 announcement today. Utah could get off to a fast start and take the BYU crowd out of the game quickly. Just win Utes…a loss won’t be too much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
