Departing PAC schools get one final screw from the PAC-12..............their spring football games are all forced to air on the PAC-12 Network that nobody can access.
trojanswire.usatoday.com
While USC spring game is on Pac-12 Network, Michigan game is on Fox
USC’s spring football game will be far less visible than the Michigan and Ohio State spring games. Not good. Not fair. Not right.

I guess this baseball season will see the last PAC-12 pennant. Go Beavers!
I just realized. the Big 10 might actually have some competitive baseball teams.

A side benefit to realignment. These moves are all about money and football, but most of the B1G's realignment moves have benefited baseball.
Nebraska and Maryland are frequently top contenders and have each won conference championships. Rutgers usually does decent but has never won a B1G championship yet. USC, UCLA, Oregon and Washington should be strong in the conference standings.
And if you look at possible future additions, most schools that have any shot at joining the B1G have decent baseball teams.
Kind of ironic that the B1G is improving itself in a sport that is an afterthought.

While Oregon State has not merely been to the CWS (7 times) , they have won the Championship three times this century.
Oregon's one CWS appearance is insignificant compared to the Beavers. UDub is about like da ducks.
Southern Cals' baseball is like its WBB (before this year). Once and former royalty that has not been a playa' in a couple of decades. They won the championship 12 times between WWII and the end of the 20th century! None since. Indeed, they have not appeared in the CWS since 2001. But still, they are blue bloods like Tennessee wbb.
UCLA has a pretty significant baseball history this century including one runnerup in 2010 and one championship 2013.
GO BEAVERS! (Power conferences don't own baseball. The SEC is very powerful, but there's still room for a Coastal Carolina to win it all)).

Michigan made it in 2019. They were runners up to Vanderbilt. It was 2 games to 1.

Oregon State and Washington State face player exodus amid realignment
Perhaps the biggest blow for Oregon State in recent weeks was the departure of running back Damien Martinez, who had previously pledged his loyalty to the Beavers. Twelve players from Washington State's men's basketball team that went to the NCAA Tournament this past season for the first time...

I can feel their pain. It’s no fun as a fan base to be left behind. We know the feeling all too well…

He is not posting that in sympathy, he is dancing on their graves. This troll likes that fan bases lose their teams to root for and the athletes at that school can no longer compete at the highest level, so they have to leave to other schools, which will displace those athletes. No one benefits from the consolidation of college athletics other than ghouls that get satisfaction from the unhappiness of others.
UCLA softball closes epic Pac-12 rivalry with thrilling win over Arizona on Senior Day
UCLA and Arizona have won 20 national titles. Their fierce Pac-12 rivalry effectively ended Sunday, with both teams joining new conferences.
sports.yahoo.com
The rivalry between UCLA and Arizona in softball can best be described as a clash of titans. In the 40 years of NCAA Division I softball championships, these schools have combined for 20 of them.
Washington State and Oregon State have 13 combined home games this fall. The CW will air 10 of them and FOX will air 3. “The PAC-12 Network” will produce the 10 CW games, however the television channels of the PAC-12 Network will cease operations on June 30.

Maybe a regional thing like hockey....The latest Coach's Poll Top 25 has 9 from SEC (10 if you count Oklahoma as SEC) and 7 from the ACC.

UCLA is headed to B1G and Cal is headed to ACC and UCLA has to subsidize Cal because of the conference revenue/cost disparity and Cal having to kick media revenue money back to ACC. Nice life.
