As we wake up this morning to the dawn of the new Pac-12, I cannot help but think about the unquestionable resilience that both Oregon State and Washington State have shown over the last few years.

Those two schools witnessed every single one of their conference mates abandoned them because we live in an era of conference realignment where money is much more important than history, tradition, and regionality.

Their schools were on the verge of being cast aside in the footnotes of history and the Pac-12 was on the verge of joining the Big East and WAC in joining the major college football graveyard.

But Instead, we saw a glimpse of what the undeniable human resolve is capable of by not only refusing to accept their fate as Institutions but by also reviving the Pac-12 from the ashes at the same time!

So while the Pac-12 may not command as much of the national spotlight as what they used to, one is thing is still abundantly clear.

Pac-12 After Dark? Is OFFICIALLY BACK!!

While much of the Senate college sports bill is about rules, that hearing was a reminder people are still furious about conference realignment. That's what changed everything.

It's why a senator from Washington still upset about what happened to Wazzu is holding the line. It turns out that when a consolidation of power leaves people behind, the lawmakers who represent those areas that got left behind don't forget what happened.

The end of the Pac-12 will go down as one of the dumbest, most embarrassing, most avoidable mistakes in the history of sports. A boat full of ancient, out-of-touch administrators reassuring themselves that everything was great as they careened over a waterfall

Since the college sports world left the Cougs for dead in 2023:

• Basketball made the NCAA tournament ✅

• Volleyball made the NCAA tournament✅

• FB with wins over the Big12, Big10 (2x), bowl win ✅

• Re-built the Pac12 ✅

If there was any question about the current differences between Canada and the US, these 2 tweets should help to clear everything up.
