It is if you had enough moonshine

If thats what it takes to get us there im willing to go shineblind for the cause.

I just made up shineblind.

Kinda like it.

More conference games means fewer opportunities for UCONN to play the traditional rivals in the Big East.

 

[Guapo]

So does this mean anything? Are sources telling Rothstein UConn is still a possibility?He basically implied that UConn was the only real possibility.

 

[SubbaBub]

Thank goodness. I was getting worried.

Followed immediately by P5 is now P4.

PAC problems seem to be coming to the forefront. Lots of unhappiness directed at Larry Scott over in that region.

ATT and U-verse dropping the PAC12 is not really a surprise - they were lucky to get another season in with them after the contract expired.

U-verse is dinky and getting dinkier, but it sets in stone that the PAC12 Net will never, ever land on DirecTV.

A desperate PAC 12 going into the mid-2020’s is a good thing. More chaos, more better.

 

[The Viking]

Sooo...the Pac 12 contract is up in 2024 if I read that article correctly? and Big 12 is up in 2024-2025...and Big 10 is 2022-2023.

Let's get the football ship righted by 2021 to at least 7-5 with some quiet bowl games and fans returning please...and hopefully Hurley kicks .

You need the EST. Eyeballs

Thus ... uncertainty in competitive terms. That is good got the University of Connecticut and maybe finding ways to fill content needs.

Of course Hoop. Our football is bit unwatchable

 

[CL82]

Anyone else a bit unsympathetic about PAC 12 schools whining about their $31M per school distribution?

Agree with Fishy when you are on the outside looking in, chaos is your ally.

“UConn to the PAC 12; need EST presense; UCLA needs a basketball rival!”

- me in 3 years, probably

The funny thing is, I think we'd take it if it was offered.

ACC Network to Launch August 22, 2019; Georgia Tech at Clemson First Network Game August 29

Hmm this ranking looks suspiciously similar to the conference revenue ranking, doesn't it?

School conference earning subsidize coaches salaries. Just another example of why dropping football would put us into a death spiral.

The Pac-12 championship game attendance looks like a mid-October UConn home game as far as attendance.

Why is a CWMA5 championship game on a Friday night? Unfathomable!

If the P5 does consolidate into the P4, the PAC will be rooting for the ACC to surive and I bet they put the full press to pull Texas in, even if that includes taking Texas Tech with them.

Attendance from the ESPN Box Score- 35.1K.

He's talking about playoff expansion not conference expansion. Move this to the football board.

You passed and get the golden husky!

 

[billybud]

yep...with only the SEC and ACC making every playoff, and the B!G, Big 12, and PAC 12 missing at least two each...the votes from the P5's should be there to expand the CFP.

I don't think that a playoff expansion necessarily impacts realignment...but non expansion along with a P4 CFP would.

 

[SubbaBub]

For all the pomp around the CFP, nothing has really changed except they added two more big money games.

Selection is still based on the cultivated opinions of people who are not accountable and skew heavily to branded programs.

The formula is still the same. Play no one OOC and rely on your brand to get you though.

Playing Memphis in your CCG might be a little different than playing Georgia in a CCG.

More along the line of Clemson playing Pitt.

Outside of Clemson on top of the ACC and UConn at the bottom of the AAC, I think the two conferences are evently matched at this time. Memphis would have given Clemson the same amount of fight as Pitt did and I'd wager that UCF would have hammered Pitt.
