Death of the PAC12 thread — and what happens to Utah

Chalk the loss of another little piece of my soul to the ravages of late-stage capitalism

That’s who won today. The G5 teams the Big added. Had the Big 12 known the Big 10 would take Oregon and UW, there’s no offer to G5 teams.

Exactly. I didn’t realize how anxious I was. Side note- my OU buddy hopes we shellack OSU in the Sooner’s absence. Who are we even in with now? I lost track

Reports say that Utah, UA, and ASU will receive full shares from the Big 12. They are getting the money from the Texas and Oklahoma departures to compensate those schools. That’s not bad.

And BYU doesn’t get a full share. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

So much this. As much as I’ve tried to not care (because there ain’t a damn thing I can do about the outcome), the prospect of football purgatory was more than a little unnerving. Glad we know what’s gonna happen…at least until the next round of chaos.

Can tell you one thing for sure, this year’s P12 is going to be a dogfight

Let’s just keep winning as athletes, lead in research and venture profitability, while engendering ongoing community wealth with good vibes to all.

Hey all…fan of the reigning Big XII champions welcoming the PAC-12 champions. I realize we might not be big city destinations but unlike the bs you’ve been used to in the PAC… . you’re gonna be playing consistently in front of raucous rabid crowds and jam packed arenas. In fact on a typical Saturday Bill Snyder Family Stadium has more people in the stands then live in the Little Apple. You and Arizona were who I wanted. Wish we would have told ASU to suck it back but looks like they are coming too.

Cycrazy - let it be known all the chatter about truck stops was a reaction in anger about all the anti-PAC rhetoric, but more than anything, it was our toxic wrestling with BYU fans.

Won’t lie - the PAC was a good era for Utah. But we’ve been in conferences with teams from Wyoming, New Mexico, too many teams in Texas to remember, etc.

We’re Ute fans, we’ll look forward to being in some of those crazy shootouts in the Big-12.

I mean. The Oklahoma NBA team is sponsored by a truck stop. So it checks out.

Road trips to games in Texas will mean stops at Buccees. So that’s a good thing right?

Well, the creativity in the insults are definitely more Group of Five if not Division III level. I’m sure the LDS jokes are coming next.

Well, time to three-peat and go out on top, then go win the BIG 16 trophy.

To the K-State fan, welcome to our board. We are all a little pissed right now with the FUBAR way this all went down. I am sure things will settle down before we go kickoff this season by handing the Gators an ugly loss.

I just hope someone looks into Kliavkoff and Smith’s misadventures to see if there is anything that can be done. What I have no clue, but something.
