Clearly in Left Field...The PAC Retains All Schools
That might be the best way for all to survive if we cannot be in the B1G, and I love the graphic. And do chime in when you have thoughts, as we invite reasonable fans from all schools. WELCOME! (BTW...always loved your offense!)

UO + Lanning + SEC = $$$
I understand your logic, but emotionally it makes me ...🤮

That's It!! Join the SEC!
I really like this, although I would prefer eight conference games in my division as the SEC does! And great to see you Buckeye, as reasonable fans of all schools are welcome here.

Clearly in Left Field...The PAC Retains All Schools
If they don't want 20 teams, but 18, (and they have 16 now) they wait on ND. If ND joins, they need one more and we are among the candidates. If ND stays independent, (which is what I would guess) then B1G stands pat and we're out?

College Football is All About the Money...."I'm Out."
Yep. But as long as Oregon has sports teams--I will be a fan and have these sites up for those who want to take part. Even if we are in the Mountain West with half the sports we have now. My loyalty runs deep...

That, to me is the question. And the answer will determine if we climb or fade in being relevant.

George Kliavkoff--Completely Blindsided?
Unfortunately, I agree with this. If we don't get into the B1G....we are screwed, IMHO.

That is a spin I like!

Should the Pac-12 Merge with the Big-12 for a Third Super-Conference?
This is an idea that Canzano floated that might be the only way to survive if the B1G rejects Oregon. But the revenue split up so many ways--seems like a big decline to me. Get into the B1G or fade into irrelevance? He also noted that the Pac-12 is working hard to keep Oregon and Washington...

More Confusing Bits of News...but There is HOPE
- An Arms Race to be First 20-Team Super-Conference. Big Ten or SEC? That's the End Game
It's going to be hard to even look at a USC or UCLA fan without spitting on the ground in their direction and calling them dirty. Such a dishonest blindside... After all these years of competing--you don't even ask the Pac-12 for more money? Don't even try to squeeze WSU, OSU and Arizona for less money to give the LA schools a bigger share? We don't even deserve a "heads-up" after all these years? What a dirty, scummy way of doing business with partners that helped you make money. Never mind your losing record to Oregon for the last 20 years. Sorry about the rant...kinda lost control.- Sure Enough... There is Humor in Our Disaster

OK...your funnin' me...right? "Would we want to leave our bitter rival in the dust with a subpar conference while we go on to greater revenues and future?" You portray a dream scenario! But I do not think it would happen as Seattle is a much bigger market, and hard for a conference to ignore. BTW...great to see you back! (And you are always welcome to stop by and jump in)- The Ducks Will be Fine
It was very kind of you to sign up and share your good sentiments. While half the conference will be scrambling to avoid a bad situation--I feel for them too, as we all have so much history together. I think Oregon will be fine, but it will be nerve-wracking until we know for certain.

Our friend Log Haulin, posted this in another thread, but so many truths are in it that I had to make a separate thread for it.

Does that title epitomize your feelings at times? Mine too, with the portal, NIL, Coaches salaries and now being stabbed in the back by the LA schools. But regardless of these events...I am an Oregon fan for the rest of my life. I have said before--that even if there were only five of us left...I'd rather have a reasonable, civilized discussion of Our Beloved Ducks in this forum than all the nastiness elsewhere. And that is also true for where-ever the path for Oregon goes, whether it is with the Pac-12 or another conference. Since I am keeping the bills paid on both sites, and the writers and I still enjoy writing--these two sites will be here long-term reporting the news with links, passing along the press releases and enjoying the high-brow discussions with this savvy community.

In the Mountain West, and that's so wrong. So the players are demanding more money, and now so are the individual schools.- Oregon's Crossroads Moment?
Well, those four would be what I mentioned in the post above yours I would assume. (UO, UW, Cal and 'Furd) The only way to preserve the conference is for the have-nots to take a big cut in conference revenue....to pass along to the brats in SoCal, but not as much as what the Big-10 would give, but enough to keep the LA schools on-board. Sure ramps up the hatred when we play them, huh?- Oregon's Crossroads Moment?
