There is a caption in here....what is it?

Amen my Beer-Brother!

It would appear that UO Brass thinks so... (The timing is interesting isn't it...after all these years?)

If Oregon State had a big brand…they would have been invited to attract their fan base. But they do NOT have a brand, and thus have a small following. Whose fault is that?

I agree with you, it did get harder. Yet I’m believing what Jon Joseph thinks, and that the playoff will be expanded to 16 teams later, and if Oregon has a good team…we will get in. I believe the decision makers were looking at the total package of what the additional exposure will do for the Oregon brand, the money, and certainly if Dan Lanning was coaching in the SEC, the path to the playoff would be no easier. But, I’m not going to beat it all up, because I’ve resolved a long time ago, that wherever Oregon ends up, I will be a fan and make the best of it.

If you look at the new conference, and add up the final rankings of each of the seven teams in both conferences at the end of 2022, (you want the lower number, the higher ranking) and you will see that the B1G's number is 70, and the SEC number is 96! My Duck-Buddies...we are entering the strongest football conference! (My gosh this is juicy!)

The Ducks are already doing pretty well in our new conference...

Yep. Why does the Big-12 call themselves that for years when they were only 10 teams? The trendy thing?

Baloney. He got hits and coverage digging the PAC-12 grave? Screw him. All the terrible things he wrote and now HE absolves himself of responsibility? Journalists like him are part of what is wrong with today’s values, with current culture. “We fry you, but don’t blame us when a 100 year old conference collapses!” I read this article earlier tonight, was repulsed, and was not going to post it.

Disagreement is good; we learn from each other. Thanks for posting.

They would stick it to us in a heartbeat if they had the same choices. And I do feel bad for them...too bad it...

What an insufferable jerk. He covers the Ducks? Bill Oram: Oregon Ducks survived this round of realignment roulette. But what did it really cost them? WWW.OREGONLIVE.COM The Ducks were officially accepted as members of the Big Ten on Friday.

Hey Bruce, We will need to do something about the B1G championships in Bloomington, Indiana! I think Hayward Field would be more suitable...

Obviously with the incredible exposure--we will attract even more to Eugene. Your typical Oregon vs. B1G team will have TONS more eyeballs on it, and doubling our viewership number should be easy. It sucks to be us, right? Looking at the Rivals current rankings...we are third in the B1G, and yet No. 6 in the nation? That my Duck-Buddies is a Power-Conference that we are now are part of and should be proud of. Although Josh Pate feels differently than I?

Awkward!

"There is something transcendental about Stanford asking Boise State if they can join their conference."
