glduck Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Is the Pac-10 coming after UCLA/USC or did that twitter guy confuse the Pac-10 with the UC system going after UCLA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row Z Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I disagree. If we consolidate to super conferences, the level of viewership in all locations where teams are not included will decline significantly. So the total viewership will decline. Bad for tv business. Then, as the actual super conference games become repetitive and boring, interest will actually decline within the super conference areas. We have so many choices for sports and other entertainment. CFB was a great product, but if the networks fuck with it too much they will ruin it. Just my $.02. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row Z Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Meanwhile, one rumor is that ND's preferred partner to join the B1G is Stanford. Might we see the two private universities jump to the B1G, and keep UCLA and the LA market in the fold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't vouch for @MHver3, and he may well be a troll, but the rumors he is trafficking in seem to line up with some other smoke about ND preferring Stanford as their partner.

glduck Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I mean, Stanford being the preferred partner for ND just makes sense. Get Stanford, SC, the Michigans, and Purdue in the B1G and suddenly *most* of their biggest rivals are all conference games and a long held Irish excuse for not joining a conference is thrown out the window.

Aztecgolfer Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Well, SDSU is 7-2 against PAC12 teams in football in recent years and our BB program is at least as good. From what I've read, Stanford is the preferred partner with Notre Dame for expansion to the BIG. Y'all might want to think of doing something to stop your hemorrhaging in California. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, it goes back to my mom's Southern roots, something I celebrate. My grandfather was a big Bama fan, being from Alabama. Funny. SDSU and Bama rate the same in the USN&R ratings. My brother graduated from UCSB with degrees in English and Literature so I like pissing him off using terms like "y'all" & "irregardless." Oh, I graduated with a science degree and own a company that modifies aircraft if you think I'm sort of brainless yokel. It sounds like, if the BIG does take another PAC school it would be Stanford if Notre Dame joins. So, the PAC-9? You good with that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
