After USC & UCLA Leave, Who Does Pac-12 Add? Or Do the Pac-12 & Big 12 Merge?

Recommended Posts

If I had to guess the Biggest and Best Programs in the PAC12 & BIG12 merge.

 

PAC12: Oregon, Washington, CAL, Stanford, Utah, ASU, Arizona & Colorado. 

 

BIG12: Kansas, TECH, OSU, ISU, Baylor, TCU, Kansas St. 

 

AAC: BYU, Houston & Cincinnati

 

18 Great Schools

This is true, but it would only keep us afloat in my opinion. It would remain the weakest Power 3(?) conference and I think it would still suffer longevity issues (prolonging the time before the better teams were plucked out of this new conference).  Granted, this might be the best bet for these schools as a whole, but I have to think joining the B10 is what would be best for Oregon...and while selfish, can anyone blame us for that during this time of upheaval and greed?

Yeah, when you don't have revenue sharing, everybody goes their own way.  USC/UCLA leaving would absolutely cripple the Pac 12, but wouldn't kill it.  However, UO and UW leaving would kill it.

 

I'd like to pick and choose schools for merging, but I feel like OSU/UO and WSU/UW are joined at the hip.

One interesting thing about this idea...you could have two nine team divisions, and you play each member with eight conference games and four non-conference games as the SEC does.  Conference Championship of the two divisions...interesting!

To me there's enough there to be in the same ballpark as the potential expanded Big10, in particular Baylor/Utah/BYU/Houston/Cincinnati...certainly way more competitive than the ACC.
