UCLA-Nebraska has long been rumored to be one of the fixed rivalry games. I'm most teams would like to trip out here for games in November.

row Z Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I have no idea if what these streamers from Utah are saying about the Pac12 tv negotiations is accurate ... but if it is things are not going well: 1) tv offer of $250M, $25M per school; 2) schools divided on whether to consider selling all tier 1 rights to a streamer like Amazon (UW, Oregon, AZ, ASU against selling to streamer).

glduck Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Would rather take SDSU, play football as the Pac-11, and add Gonzaga as a non-football member than take SMU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row Z Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 SMU makes very little sense to me, other than the Dallas market I guess. There is virtually no fanbase for SMU. Man, it looks like the Pac12 played musical chairs with the Big12 and got absolutely housed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row Z Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 I have seen support for the logic behind adding SMU from a couple of sources, including Wilner and Canzano on their most recent podcast. On paper, the Dallas Fort Worth area is a valuable market for tv, high school football is strong and will result in better conference recruiting in Texas, SMU has a big endowment and is eager to spend on football, they have already made big moves with NIL and the portal, and the school is well ranked academically. But, all of this requires projecting their fit in the conference in the future, because today it just seems like a big step down from Big12 schools we thumbed our nose at (including BYU, OK State, Texas Tech etc.).

Agree. If SMU was anywhere near the territory of the Big-12, you wouldn't have seen Houston, Central Florida, etc. as that conference's add-ons, it would have been SMU. But SMU was never even mentioned as a prospect for the Big-12. (Note, the Big-12 also passed on San Diego State. They found BYU, CFU, and Cincy more worthwhile.) I'm of the mind that the Pac should stay at ten teams, but if Kliavkoff wants to dilute the beer with SMU, then CU and the other four-corners should think again about Big-12 membership. If the four-corners were about to leave, oregon and Washington would join in for sure so as not to be stranded, and then we'd have an interesting conference with the best of the remaining Pac-schools added to KU, Oklahoma State, Houston, etc. Here's what we could end up with if Pac-schools went to the Big-12, with 20 schools total and a renegotiated contract: --Oregon/Washington/Cal/Stanford/ASU/Arizona/Utah/CU/BYU/KU --ISU/KSU/OkState/TTech/TCU/Baylor/Houston/CFU/WVU/Cincy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
row Z Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Your version of a rebuilt 20 team Big12 would cool. I could enjoy that. I read something on a Cal board that Amazon is looking at sports as a loss leader for more Amazon Prime subscriptions. So, it might be Amazon pushing for more schools in larger population areas like DFW. If financial deal from Amazon is fat enough, i guess adding SMU and SDSU would be ok, although I think we could use a partner for both of those schools. Would take some time getting used to in any event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
