Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted 19 hours ago Oh little brother... John Canzano interviewed the retired commissioner from both the WAC and the Sun Belt, and he gave us that quote. So that is what Beavis aspires to? That they and Texas State hopefully become the next Boise State? Then he quickly added, “It never happened — but maybe this is the time.” 2 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Marsh No. 2 Share Posted 19 hours ago What does that even mean? Boise State had some shocking major bowl wins but they were never a contender for a national championship and will probably never be. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanLduck No. 3 Share Posted 18 hours ago Boise St made noise cuz they were in the Mt West. I always thought that if WSU played the BSU schedule, they would make a bowl every year. And if BSU played WSU schedule, maybe make a bowl 1 out of 3 years. (In the old Pac12) Now the Pac (St)eight is the old Mt West, only with more parity. I see them all beating up on each other and none of them making a playoff, even at 16 teams! Canzano is desperate for Beavis to be relevant. He knows us Duck fans won't ever subscribe to his irrelevant b.s. What a goal, let's be the next Boise St! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Pac is the best of the old mountain West which absolutely means they will all consume each other regularly. Probably fun for viewers (if you actually want to watch those teams) but not great for their playoff prospects for sure. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 5 Share Posted 16 hours ago So, after spending a Saturday watching Big Ten football games… I wanna tune into the CW Network to watch Colorado State versus Texas State in the evening? Right. 1 1 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. If you're desperate for some football still and on the west coast. You by default meet one of those criteria Charles! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDuck No. 9 Share Posted 13 hours ago "So, after spending a Saturday watching Big Ten football games… I wanna tune into the CW Network to watch Colorado State versus Texas State in the evening?" Well, it didn't work so well either when it was Arizona vs Cal on the Pac12 Network or ESPN. Or, UCLA vs Oregon State. Or, WSU vs Stanford. etc. at 7:30 - 8:00 pm starts Pacific on Saturday night. I suspect the New Pac is going to see quite a few Thursday and Friday night games starting in 2026, in an attempt to garner viewers whose eyeballs aren't glazed over from watching football since 9:00 am. Maybe even earlier Thurs/Fri starts than 10:30 pm Eastern. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good idea, with 4:00 PM PST starts--their viewership would be much better, as watching Utah State vs. Washington State is better than nothing. 2 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
