It's fascinating to me because on paper the PAC 12 is a great group of programs which should be able to thrive as a conference, but the B1G cut its heart out taking the LA schools. The PAC could add Colorado State, Utah State, and some other MWC programs but that's a steep drop in quality. It could have even poached Kansas or Okie State if it had a crystal ball. But once your biggest programs leave, you are relegated. Colorado has to weigh leaving some great programs to rejoin a conference which it left just over a decade ago, a conference which at the time included Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, TAMU. That's a really tough choice.
