I don't know? Perhaps $30 a month all in is 'fair and reasonable?' If I can't record, I don't want to cut the cord. ESPN direct-to-consumer bundle price revealed - On3 WWW.ON3.COM .

YES! A Prediction for an Eugene PO Regional. Field of 64 Projections: Two new hosts spark changes through NCAA Tournament entering final week - On3 WWW.ON3.COM One week remains in college baseball's regular season, and two new hosts have sparked a ton of changes in this week's Field of 64. 1st, keep your Eyes on that Hawk!

We have met the enemy! And they are us?

I understand the umbrage over PO play-in games. However, as it so happened last season, both the champ game winner, Oregon, and the loser, PSU, made the PO field. The 4th-place B1G finisher, Ohio State, made the field. With a 16-team field, the loser of the play-in game, B1G representative No. 2, is going to be highly seeded in a 16-team postseason tournament, a tournament with no 1st round byes. Rarely, if ever, will the team that finishes 2nd in the B1G be seeded lower than No. 8, and with a 1st round home game. Come 2026, seeding will equate with the PO committee's final ranking. Oregon got a double dose of format blues last season. With a four-team PO still in effect, in the semifinals, OBD rematches with PSU, and Georgia rematches with Texas. Ohio State is still debating whether to fire Ryan Day. In any and likely every postseason tournament ever played anywhere, No. 1 Oregon plays the winner of No. 9 Boise State at No. 8 Indiana in the Rose Bowl. Likely wins the game and moves on. With mega-conference in-conference strength of schedule being all over the place, I think the B1G team in second place after the 11th game of the regular season, could well be better than a first-place team that played a far easier conference schedule. Consider OBD's schedule in 2027. OBD plays at Michigan and hosts Ohio State and Penn State. OBD also draws Iowa at home, and plays at Nebraska, UCLA, and UW. 6 home games with an OOC game in Waco, Texas against Baylor. I have not parsed all of the 2027 B1G schedules, but if Oregon is second in the conference standings with this schedule after game 11, I believe OBD will be more than worthy of a shot at the conference championship. If every team had the same in-conference strength of schedule, then I'd also be against the play-in format. I also do not know how much more revenue the B1G will receive with a play-in format compared to a one-off championship game that is likely to feature the B1G's biggest brands. But it is odds-on to be more money, or Petitti and Sankey would not be pushing a 16-team field and play-in games. Respectfully submitted, JJ.

Not to be cynical, but anyone wanna bet that the $2M is just the opening bid?

Good thing he is being paid well, as we won't see him deep in the Playoffs! It's a Good Choice...

Good for him, or anyone else who is offered it.

The title of the book is "Great Expectations" and this is summertime. But there's nothing wrong with standing on the floor and look up at a great ceiling in 2026...and, what if it turns out to be Novosad?

I'm with ya! Oregon went UNDEFEATED during the regular season, but had to win the conference championship game? They did, over Penn State, because Michigan beat osu2. Oregon wins the CCG, then gets screwed in the CFP, meanwhile PSU and osu2 make out like bandits, before PSU trips up. In "March Madness" the conference tournament works, if somehow a lower ranked team wins, they get a trophy, but probably a lower seed than the regular season champ gets as an at large selection. People say they don't watch college basketball much until March, but the regular season means more than football's does.

This makes too much sense, so it will never happen.

I hate the play-in games...hate them. I just KNOW in the future that Oregon will face a team in conference final of No. 1 vs. No. 2, (Like Ohio State) that the Ducks have already played before during the regular season schedule...and then there will be a good chance of playing them again, a third time in the playoff? So THIS is progress?

The reality is that it's nice to have some big games at Noon. But not all big game at noon. Oregon settled into a prime-time slot last year around 6pm because of the way games are effectively drafted by the broadcast companies. The biggest team in the B1G in the east coast time slot was Ohio State and they basically got pure Big Noon kickoffs. I can see why their fan base grew weary of that because that was the only time they seemed to have games.

Breakfast tailgate....I love it!

This format makes perfect sense, is that the problem?

One of the Big Network's college football go-to folks, Ross Dellenger of Yahoo Sports, is a voice of 16-team playoff reason amidst the 'This Will Kill the Sport!' insanity. A 16-team College Football Playoff wouldn't be catastrophic; it would fix things WWW.YARDBARKER.COM The worst part of the 12-team playoff is the automatic byes for the top four conference champions. This article notes that as part of the 16-team playoff, the flex-week playoff play-in games are coming. These games will eliminate the stand-alone conference champ games, although one versus two may still be played at a neutral site, and end the season one week earlier. The play-in format is expected to bring in more money than one stand-alone conference champ game. Last season, OBD would have played Penn State for the title, possibly in Autzen, with Iowa visiting Indiana, and Illinois visiting Ohio State. NO rematch regular season games would have been played in 2024. The B1G's first and second-place teams would play one another, with both guaranteed one of the conference's four playoff bids. Three plays six and four plays five for the other two spots. Mega-conference 'hit and miss' top opponents scheduling, and every CFB metric supports a 4-4-2-2-1-3 format.

Hard to believe that could be true. But, during the Sabrina, Ruthy, Satou run, MKA did rock!

Just think if this were to happen during a football game? The College Football world would be losing their freaking minds. Let alone the team's fan base that took the L for this happening. It wouldn't happen in College Football, the game would be postponed and finished later. It shouldn't happen in any sport.

I understand the "Pac-12 After Dark" problem the west coast faces. But overall, I love how the times work out. In the east, the primetime games start at 8:00 PM, in the west, it's the 3rd quarter at 8:00. In the NFL games start at 10:00, then 1:00 or 1:25, then the Primetime, again at around 5:00. The infamous "Heidi" game was not a problem in the west; regular programming isn't affected. A game kicking off at 9:00 am in the west is ridiculous, but a noon game in the east is just fine.

It seems that Fox is also primed to make Oregon/PSU a Big Noon game. I feel bad for the visiting West Coast folks who will be forced to tailgate with their body clock at 6:00-7:00 AM.
