I imagine that was agreed to by all parties to avoid litigation.
Re: 2024 Season Thread
My price per game per ticket actually went down this year

Re: 2024 Season Thread
Mine was up 15% but that was based on 7 games not 6

Big XII Bowl Games
The Big XII's bowl games are currently (without the bowl sponsor names):
CFP/New Year's Six
San Antonio (Alamodome)
Orlando (Camping World Stadium - XFL)
Houston (NRG Stadium)
Memphis (Liberty Stadium)
Phoenix (Chase Field)
Ft Worth (TCU)/Dallas (SMU) on alternating year basis
Shreveport (Independence Stadium)
With the demise of the Pac-12, it opens the door to the Pac-12's bowls to negotiate new tie-ins. That could potentially add:
Las Vegas (Allegiant Stadium)
San Diego (Petco Park)
El Paso (Sun Bowl Stadium)
Los Angeles (SoFi Stadium)
Vegas seems likely to the so-called experts, with the California bowls possibly pursued by the Big Ten.

Vegas needs to be a Big 12/B1G tie in so we could have a chance of kicking Fisch in the nut sack

Is this from Spears at the Star saying it "is expected to play for Arizona in the upcoming season"?
I'm not buying it until I hear it from Tacario.

Re: 2024 Season Thread
I received a questionnaire from the Big12 (via the UA athletic dept) regarding the Big 12 tournament in Kansas City. There were questions such as 1) Have you ever attended 2) Are you likely to attend again, etc. My answer to every other question was "Move the tournament to Las Vegas". Given a choice between the entertainment capital of the USA vs. Cowtown (KC) I would pick Vegas every day of the week.

Big XII Coincidence
Don't know where I stumbled across this, but it's a bit of a head-shaker. With the impending move over the summer into the Big XII, most people realize that our "WC" Wildcats hand sign (right hand only, please) is identical to that of the Kansas St Wildcats. Wildcat solidarity, I guess. But ironically, ASU's fourth-finger-down "broken fork tine" hand sign is the same as that of the Houston Cougars. It turns out that years ago, Houston's live mascot, Shasta, got its paw caught in a cage door, which resulted in an amputated toe. Prior to a game, the Texas Longhorns mocked their opponent by holding up their hands with a missing finger. It became a rallying cry, and Houston adopted it as their "Cougar Paw" hand sign. After hearing everything for many years about old Pac opponents, it's kind of fun to hear something that (for us) is a little new and different.

We’ll have to figure out who was first with the WC and then mock KSU mercilessly if it was us.

"K-State’s Wildcat hand sign has been around since the mid-2000s and caught on quickly."
No idea how long the UA has been doing it.

Is anyone even excited about the Big 12? Seems like the only ones who are are Arizona’s own media members. I wonder why that is?

Re: 2024 Season Thread
Don’t be honored as Chief is a despicable human being who ruins lives. He is a narcissist who reels people in and then explodes on them. He needs help in the worst way.
And we have heard this before from Chief to Tatonka to his many handles. You are just back to gloat and weave your narcissistic web

Good Riddance Pac-12/Welcome Big XII
In the major sports, we are done with the history we've seen of favoritism shown the LA schools and some others, and some of the notorious regional-centric refs. That's been documented. Any negative claims about what may happen in the Big XII is pure speculation, but most sports media types seem to think we not only landed on our feet, but in a more advantageous situation. Arizona, ASU, BYU, Utah, Colorado and Texas Tech are all pretty familiar and comfortable with each other and each has a history showing it can do well in football. Oklahoma St, the other three Texas schools, West Virginia, the Kansas schools and Iowa St don't need any introductions. Over the last 8 years, UCF has a composite average 9-4 record and has gone bowling each year. Cincinnati is coming off a bad year, but the previous 5 years were fairly similar to UCF. The football title game has a great venue at Jerry World, for hoops it's the Kansas Invitational at T Mobile Center in KC, but there's a chance to move it to Vegas, and the baseball tournament is at the Rangers domed ballpark.

Re: 2024 Season Thread
I am. BYU, OK State, Baylor, and TCU could all become rivalries in Football. And basketball speaks for itself.
Glad we are done with the PAC-12.

Basketball wise it’s a weird move. There are no rivalries. Football-wise it is boring. I don’t see anyone who is totally hyped up about this move. Time will tell.

Just told you I was hyped. I also will get to see some conference away games. Very pumped for that. Your point isn’t really taking hold here my dude.

Re: 2024 Season Thread
Is Duke/North Carolina a rivalry? Is Michigan and Ohio St in football a rivalry? Better look at those historical records if scoreboard is your criteria

Re: 2024 Season Thread
I am talking about Arizona rivalries. Kansas isn’t one of them. Neither are any of the schools in the Big 12 other than ASU. Come again, over.
Re: 2024 Season Thread
You must be looking at it from either the number of games played or maybe a national perception outside the fan base of both schools.
If you knew anything about the fans of both schools concerning these two in basketball, you would clearly see it is a rivalry and one that will only grow larger.
Of course you are you Chief. You enter here once again softly and now you become the burr in the saddle like a good narcissist does. Go away

I think I am looking at it rationally and not with emotion. Being 4-8 against a team does not constitute a rivalry. About the Chief stuff.

Why the fuck do I need to tell anyone if I’m excited or not? I don’t need any rah rah affirmation from a bunch of knuckleheads (which btw I’m at the front of the line).
It is what it is. The landscape of college sports is moving faster than a Tectonic plate east of Java. Glad we aren’t wazzu or the Beav’s.
Let’s win some games against our new rivals. Plain and simple.

Through this whole thread you are trying to fulfill 3 of the 4 important qualities a narcissist like you craves. Just to remind you chief, here they are.
Have an unreasonably high sense of self-importance and require constant, excessive admiration.
Feel that they deserve privileges and special treatment.
Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements.
Make achievements and talents seem bigger than they are.
Please get help before you ruin your family

Like chi said, instead rivalry with Kansas bb, and tons of great matchups in football.
Re: 2024 Season Thread
Are you ok? First, you think I am someone whom I am not. If Chief was on a burner, that is not what you are describing him as. No Narcissist would have a burner because their desired attention would have to come directly through them and not a burner. Do you even know if Chief has a family? You sound like you need help man. Sorry I don’t agree with your Kansas take but man you escalated this and made it very strange. I have no idea how a guy on Twitter has you so riled up inside. Take a breath man.

Re: 2024 Season Thread
Don’t follow Chief on twitter and never would. Can’t believe you will continue this charade but so be it. Been around for a long time and not many years left but I know a bad human and Chief is that guy. YOu are Chief but since you are saying you are just his fan boy, I caution you to get out while you can. He is poison and a cancer and how you supposedly can’t recognize that is problematic.
With that said, I am done with this topic and you and your fandom of an evil man
