Can't imagine the ABOR will go for that since they are the ones that mandated that ASU and UA alternate playing NAU.

is playing eight conference games, one home game and one away game against the other two conferences.

Unless it's 1 game for each conference, making a total of 10 games, giving the UA one FCS and one mid-major.

This would still give the schools two games to do whatever they want.

I read it as home and away with each other conference. 8 league games, two with Big 10, two with ACC

One home game and one away game from teams in the other conferences. Two games.

As far as I know we're still mandated by the state to play NAU at least 1 in every 3 years.

The TCU/Baylor... interviews to get into the PAC.

That was pretty good.

This is a good move for a soon-to-be third rate conference.

I still think it appropriate to say fuck Larry Scott. If he’d have done his job, this wouldn’t be happening.

Edit, should the Arizona Schools now look towards the Big 12?

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:04 am**

Could see UofA, asu, Utah & Colorado going to the Big 12.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:16 am**

Well...this sucks. Afraid AZ football will be left in the dust.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:22 am**

The Big-10 might get 14 teams into the NCAA tournament at this rate

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:22 am**

Could very well be a powerplay for more money for the LA schools too

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:26 am**

If this happens, I am done with college sports.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:26 am**

That was my 1st thought bug. How do the schools divy up the money now?

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:35 am**

I'm pissed, but not at all surprised. At least this would end the illusion that the Pac is a power conference. Hope Robbins/Heeke have some brains and are coming up with a plan to get us to the Big 12.

Hope we can still schedule UCLA in basketball every year. We need to keep that rivalry in tact.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 11:35 am**

I hope UCLA enjoys their Wednesday night volleyball match at Rutgers.

USC playing at Penn at 7 am pacific Or OSU basketball starting at 10pm eastern sounds like a blast for the kids.

Could be that or it could simply be that the LA schools are going to get a hell of a lot more money being in the B1G than in the P12, no matter how the P12 divys up the money.

We'll know for sure very quickly.

Robbins needs to move quickly to get the UA into the Big12 if the LA schools bolt for the B1G.......I can't see any better option for the UA

Let's look at the bright side. We won't have to put up with Bill Walton or his "Conference of Champions" talk for much longer.

Can't imagine any P5 conference wanting a football team with 1 tainted win along with another school predicted to finish last in the PAC with a lame duck coach. Football is where the money is at.

They already have Kansas to be a doormat football program.

Along with the B12 losing both Texas and Oklahoma. They will already have 14 teams too with the replacement schools.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:17 pm**

If the LA schools bolt the dominoes will begin to fall.

Either the P12 is going to raid the B12 in order to survive.......or the B12 is going to raid the P12.

Will be interesting to see who moves first.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:18 pm**

I grew up in Ann Arbor and Atlanta, rooting for Michigan and Georgia. Went to games at the Big House and between the hedges. Was in attendance for the largest football crowd in American history, at the time.

Then I decided to go to Arizona in '03 and college football has been the ruiner of my sports fandom ever since. Fuck this sport.

I can't argue with your logic. I believe that the UA needs to be proactive and look after its own interests. The P12 is not going to do that.

My nightmare Melt-Down scenario is the B12 taking Oregon/Washington/Utah/ASU and leaving us out in the cold to join a conference of leftovers (P12 + MWC)

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:20 pm**

Happening very quickly too.

I can see this, Oregon is much more desirable of a program than either AZ school.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:31 pm**

Pac was already flirting with being a mid-major. This makes it all but official.

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:47 pm**

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:51 pm**

What the fuck just happened?

My daughter is going to Michigan so I guess my rooting against the LA schools will continue.

The other thing about this is that all indications are the Pac-12 was completely blindsided by this. I was speaking to George Kliavkoff, their commissioner, throughout this week because July 1 is his one-year anniversary, and he's in Montana on vacation. He was trying to be off the grid this week. So there was no indication that he saw any of this coming in multiple conversations that I had with him."

Posted: **Thu Jun 30, 2022 12:57 pm**

I could totally be wrong, but wouldn't ABOR have to approve UA and/or ASsU jumping to another conference? Or would each school be able to do that independently?
