Oregon wins 52-17 2 Turnovers 2 Sacks 327 passing yards

I get your point Dr. Hilarius, but if I'm the player, I keep my mouth shut.

Cal and Stanford won't get an equal share until year 10. They won't move from 30% to 75% until year 7. Yikes. Stanford can afford it, but Cal not so much, even with UCLA handing over 10 mil per year.

Lazy journalism. USC and Oregon are B1G TEN schools in 2026.

The title of this thread is misleading because journalist Chris Rosvoglou straight up misquoted George. Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff says he’s focused on his league “winning a national championship,” as he rushed by reporters to catch a flight.

Do we expect anything else from this comedy of errors conference? The PAC should know every last player under suspension for ejections. That is not hard information to have. Riley should have known, but the PAC is the CEO and they HAVE to know.

I dropped DishTV last week. They had been arguing with FOX since November 2022. Not all DishTV areas are arguing with FOX, but I was tired of using my antenna and not being able to record FOX. I switched to Xfinity/Comcast. It is funny how dropping cable will likely end up costing us more money in a few years. If every TV station does their own streaming service, that is really going to make it expensive to watch everything.

The last time Florida scored a total of 14 points or fewer in back to back games was 1988. OSU and Utah did that between the Vegas Bowl and last night. 1988 happened to be the last time Florida was shut out.

CFP says no format changes until 'dust settles' on realignment - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM No major decisions were made in Wednesday's meeting with 10 FBS commissioners and Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick because the group is still waiting to see what happens... The group decided to continue to provide a $3,000 stipend for each of 125 players' families to travel to all of the games in the playoff. They are also moving forward with a company to help manage lodging on all of the campuses for the first-round games. I'm guessing they get the family discount, because I know if you buy the school package for bowl games, it is easily that much for just 1 bowl game.

Oregon would have never pulled off 92,000 for volleyball, but it was "stunt" by Nebraska to get a guinness world record. The B1G TEN does have great fan bases for volleyball.

I'm indifferent. Unless you are a USC, Michigan, Alabama, tOSU, blue blood etc, some other team is always going to be discussed more than your team, whether or not they are actually better than your team. I guess I would lean towards good, because nothing west of Texas is hardly discussed in college football.

Nice catch NJDuck. Fixed.

If tOSU, Alabama, LSU, USC, UW, Texas, Utah or Oregon goes undefeated or lose only 1 game, they will deserve a CFP berth on paper. All play 4 or 5 ranked teams. Of course, I highly doubt all 25 teams will be ranked, but on paper it looks like a tough schedule.

Ranking all 133 FBS teams into tiers for the 2023 season - ESPN WWW.ESPN.COM Ranking all 133 FBS schools into tiers heading into Week 1 of the 2023 season. It is a paid site, but here are the tiers. Tier 1: Yes, them again (one team) Georgia Tier 2a: Contenders with recent playoff experience (four teams) Alabama Clemson Michigan Ohio State Tier 2b: Contenders with less recent playoff experience (four teams) Florida State LSU Oregon Washington There was a time, believe it or not, when the Pac-12 sent teams to the College Football Playoff. After Oregon made it in 2014 and Washington in 2016, however, the conference was never heard from again. Some say it never existed, just an urban legend the Big Ten tells to scare Rutgers and Indiana into trying harder at football. But the truth is, the league has a real shot to get a team -- maybe two! -- into the playoff again in what might well be its final year of existence before fading away to join the Southwest Conference and the WAC at the great Tangerine Bowl in the sky. Tier 2c: Contenders with no playoff experience (five teams) Penn State Tennessee Texas USC Utah At 78-35, Utah has the second-best record of any Power 5 program in the playoff era that has not actually made the playoff. The Utes are 19-6 with Cam Rising as the starting QB, with four of those losses coming by a field goal or less. Utah is basically a golfer who keeps rimming out putts, but eventually one has to drop. The odds of that happening are a lot better if Rising is fully healthy for the opener against Florida, however. Like Texas, USC is hoping to bid adieu to its longtime conference home by winning a title in its final year. To do so, Lincoln Riley will need to prove the defense has taken a big step forward in 2023. Tier 2d: Contender who insists on remaining in an independent tier (one team) Notre Dame Tier 3a: Teams that should score a bunch of points (four teams) Arkansas North Carolina Ole Miss TCU Tier 3b: Teams that should prevent a lot of points from being scored (six teams) Illinois Iowa Kentucky Minnesota NC State Pitt Tier 3c: Teams that could be good on offense or defense or both or neither (one team) Kansas State Tier 4: Forget everything you saw last season (five teams) Auburn Florida Oklahoma Texas A&M Wisconsin Tier 5: So hot right now (five teams) Louisville Oregon State South Carolina Texas Tech Tulane Oregon State is the sentimental favorite to win the Pac-12 after a 10-3 season in 2022 that ultimately resulted in the Beavers and Washington State reenacting that GIF from the final scene of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," with Will standing alone in a vacant living room. The only problem with the sentimental favorite is that Oregon State hasn't finished consecutive seasons ranked since 2007 and 2008 and has never won 10 games in back-to-back seasons. Tier 6: Something good to watch before basketball season (six teams) Duke Kansas Maryland Syracuse UCLA Wake Forest Tier 7: Kinda, sorta, maybe (five teams) Baylor Cincinnati Miami Mississippi State Oklahoma State It was, Cristobal said, a necessary step in returning Miami to greatness. And to be clear, this is a different necessary step than Randy Shannon's 5-7 season in his first year at Miami or Al Golden's 6-6 first campaign and definitely way different than Manny Diaz's 6-7 start in 2019. Tier 12b: Probably worse than everyone thinks (one team) Colorado The Buffs have the feel of a Silicon Valley start-up: tons of exposure; a promise to disrupt the whole college football system; a self-styled savant leading the charge; and in two or three years, we'll learn there was never a chance of it turning a profit. In both cases, we'll be left with little more than a reasonably entertaining Netflix documentary to show for it. At least Colorado has done us the favor of scheduling TCU, Oregon and USC in the first month, so the hype can only last so long.

It is perceived value in my eyes. The TV executives never give a clear picture as to how they value teams. Is it metro area, is it eyes on actually watching games, how much is it a combination of both? Rutgers has terrible TV numbers, but they are considered valuable because they are NYC.

Wait, didn't Geoff say it was a waste of money last week? Good to see he changed his tune.

Deion has another 5* CB that is a true Freshman this year. Deion makes a good impression on CB recruits. I have no problem with what he said. He is being respectful to Lanning and still backing his team. Is he misguided about they be coming? Yes, but it is good to have confidence in your team.

I'm only going to do the regular season, no Pac 12 championship or bowl games included. Record 11-1 Offense: 41.7 points per game 300 passing yards per game 230 rushing yards per game Defense: 23.7 points per game 275 passing yards per game 115 rushing yards per game

I'll be clapping for them when they come onto the field.

I don't mind being underestimated or overlooked to start the season. However, that can be a domino effect when it comes to voting for the CFP. Winning usually cures all, but if you are comparing 2 teams with similar records and SOS and one team started ranked higher than the other, it could turn out bad for the Ducks. I would have ranked the Ducks ahead of Utah and UW, but I'm OK with being where we are now. I think it helps the players play looser as well.

The odd thing about that was, it was only for one player. The rest of the team had the name spelled correctly.

After 5-6 years, it is funny how 10 of 12 teams will be making 31 mil. The ESPN/Fox save for a couple of years. WSU and OSU really are going to be getting the short end of the stick. Stanford and Cal would come in earning a reduced share of the ACC’s annual roughly $35-40 million average total distribution—perhaps as little as 25% initially, according to sources—escalating over multiple years, according to a source. SMU, according to sources, would forego their share of the media distribution portion of that pot for multiple years and essentially come into the league earning only from non-media rights distributions such as bowl distribution payouts, College Football Playoff distributions and NCAA tournament units

Easy is a relative term. UGA missing LSU, Alabama and Mississippi St., the top 3 teams from the West last year, has the appearance of an easy SEC schedule. With the current AP poll, UGA only currently plays 2 ranked teams during the regular season. The same amount of ranked teams they played last year, Oregon and Tennessee. I'm not sure anybody thought UGA had an easy schedule last year.

I have a feeling ESPN didn't want to "waste" one of their picks on a week zero game even with the #6 team in the nation. Save a pick with more excitement around it.

I think the word being used should be pods and not divisions. I don't think the B1G will have divisions, but they will have pods of teams that will play annually.
