The Pac-12 couldn't get anyone to pay them $31 million per school so it imploded. But if the ACC takes Stanford and Cal, ESPN and/or Fox will be paying around that much for 8 of the 10 anyway.

This sport makes zero sense.

Oregon reportedly to the Big Ten, here’s my reaction from a DMV parking lot

[Dan Rubenstein @DanRubenstein]

I like the Big Ten, I like watching the Big Ten, but Oregon shouldn't be a Big Ten team, and neither should USC or UCLA.

I'm probably being too precious and romantic about it, but I love west coast football, would rather my school not be a west coast token.

The 2023 Pac-12 QB roster is insane.

This is what you get when you ask the sports guy to come in to cover a blizzard in the morning show.

Dan Lanning was asked what the next 48 hours will be like for Bo Nix.

"I'll let Kris Hutson answer that one."

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

It's a good day to be Oregon.

-- Clemson will likely fall behind them.

-- UGA did to No. 1 Tennessee's offense what it did to theirs.

-- Bo Nix's Heisman hopes 📈 Hooker/Young/Stroud 📉

Hey @pac12: I think Ertz was out of bounds on a catch in 2012, can you go take another look at it?

After some of those boys and girls basketball games we covered, I think we can all agree that it's about time this happened @TravisTeichSpx @haydenherrera @SKYSPX

Keenan Allen on Justin Herbert: "You see him. He stays like an hour and a half after practice just throwing balls. It's crazy."

He laughed.

When asked why he laughed, Allen said with a smile: "Philip never stayed after practice to throw the ball."

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

One of the regents seems to be under the impression Cal can just decide whether or not it wants to be in the Big Ten too,

Another just proposed they should model out various scenarios for Cal -- including one where it moves to Division III.

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

WOW

Kliavbkoff: "With respect to the Big 12 being open for business, we appreciate that. We have not decided whether we're going shopping there or not."

Spencer Webb's story deserving a better ending.

He died on Wednesday at 22.

The reason USC and UCLA’s rejection stings so badly in Oregon is the same as the reason Blazers fans respond so favorably to the uncommon loyalty of Dame Lillard.

The selling of the soul of college sports continues, because admins have put a “for sale” sign on everything.

[Brandon Sprague @BrandonSprague]

I know sports viewing wise this is going to give us some insane football games.

But as a lifelong Pac-10/12 fan, the reason we fell in love with CFB is over. I'd be stunned if Oregon/UW aren't gone soon. RIP to the conference. Thank you Larry Scott and university Presidents
