Wow, bye bye PAC 12? I thought the Big12 would fold first.

**MarsB** · 07-27-2023, 08:03 PM

Nope. Welcome back, Buffs!

Utes, we are keeping a seat warm for ya! Buzz and I need our Mountaineers fix. I know they will be coming to Provo, but I hear tailgating is non-existent (no surprise there).

My buddies kid was a QB on WV roster the past 2 years…transferred to Idaho St. Coach at Idaho St. told him he wants to pass 60+ times a game…lol.

Thanks to a redshirt and a Covid year…he still has 2 years of eligibility left…he’s old/ played junior hockey out of HS…so he’ll be like 27 years old when his college eligibility is done..lol (Old School old).

My prediction?
Someone on the preseason top 20 wins the National Championship.
Funny how that works..

He isn’t the first old QB in college. I’m pretty sure Mike moschetti turned 25 his senior season at CU because he played AAA baseball out of high school for a few years.

I don’t think Primetime will be at CU long term but I’m still pumped! Fuck em up, Fuck em up, GO CU!!

Harbaugh 4 game suspension is just wild (and I'm and OSU fan). NCAA is nuts.

Also, NCAA has to clean up the transfer portal rules. It's not good for college sports to have a constant free agency portal. So much for "student-athlete" if they can't get this fixed.

College Football is so much more than NFL because of the of the unique school & fan traditions (which includes alumni athletes in every way possible).

All CU needs now is more hookers!

Exactly. I’d much rather road trip to Folsom than the land of magic underwear. Welcome back.

GO BLUE!

Someone buy the NCAA a cheeseburger.

Do Oregon and Washington:

A) stay put in the PAC 9
B) move to the Big 10
C) move to the Big 12
D) None of the above

*Every discussion/rumor I've read has them paired in any scenario which makes sense on several fronts.

If the trend is towards bigger conferences then the Big 10 will have the best competition but I don’t know if they can get better TV deals with the Big 12.

I hope the old man is getting an MBA or something marketable since he's clearly not a pro prospect dropping down to Idaho State at age 52.

**SumJongGuy** · 07-28-2023, 09:03 AM

Pfft, BYU players are usually 1-2 years older than players on other teams due to the missionary work requirement..

Well, he’s gonna have undergrad/graduate degrees/ 6 years of college for free. He’s a great local kid/from a really good family. Talking with his dad, there are no negatives to what he has done/is doing…..

There's also an E) which just started floating which is to join the ACC.

Personally I kind think the ACC is gonna blow up.

Amazing how they fucked up all the history and traditions of the conferences and still can't get the National Championship right.

It's almost like the point is to make money....

Stay in the PAC 10 and go to the 🌹 bowl to play the winner of the Big 10 when they win the conference title

**Tri-Ungulate** · 08-04-2023, 04:31 PM

PAC-4? After Utah and the AZ schools skeedaddle to the Big-12.

**SumJongGuy** · 08-04-2023, 04:37 PM

Been saying all along that FOUR power conferences sure makes a playoff bracket easier.

**The Reverend Floater** · 08-04-2023, 05:17 PM

It's pretty sad. A century of rivalries and history down the drain.

As an Oregon fan I’m happy they found a landing spot. But I just hate what’s happened to cfb. The playoff and the nationalization of cfb has completely ruined the sport. I’m going to miss playing all the PAC schools. I really feel for the beavers and the cougs. If they stop playing the civil war then I’ll stop watching any college football. Fuck ESPN and FOX!

**John_B** · 08-04-2023, 05:56 PM

Fuck that's stupid. No more Apple Cup or Civil War? What a bullshit way for over a 100 years of tradition to end. NCAA football is getting more and more pathetic.
