Any feelings on the Pac-14/16?

It sounds like OU & OSU will join the Pac-12 next month (October 20 is the next Pac-12 CEO meeting and expansion will definetly be discussed). It also sounds like UT won't be joining the Pac-12 and you can pretty much rule out TT in this situation so that means the next duo is KU and MU and even the OSU Scout site did mention KU & KSU.

Suppose we do a straight split (I'm still for all pod scheduling), the Pac-16 could be like this:

West

Cal
Furd
USC
UCLA
UO
OS
UW
WSU

East

CU
Utah
OU
OSU
UA
ASU
KU
MU/KSU

I believe this is a much better outcome than having UT coming along but at the 11th hour, UT could just agree to come as well.

Any thoughts on that?
 
As for the Pac-14, I believe Utah would be kicked over to the North division so I believe a Pac-14 would still be a pretty good deal for CU.
 
I think there has been about 50 threads and about 20,000 posts on people's feelings on the matter...

I haven't thought about this yet, and have never posted anything about it. Let me get back to you.
 
No schools east of CU! AFA or CSU but nothing else to the east. At least CSU would give us our Washington State like UW has, but even that might be a stretch.
 
since everyone seems to want to have access to SoCal for recruiting, maybe it should be USC and UCLA that is split to the two divisions

Or maybe, when UCLA or USC have away games, two other Pac 12 teams can play in their stadium as a neutral site.
 
ANyone ever heard of the zipper or pod formats? I like them.

Sounds like you're just choosing random words to look like you've got a clue about this expansion thing.

I'm all for the accordion or flying Dutchman format.

I'm pretty sure the BigTenElevenTwelve have already filed for copy rights on those words to describe their scheduling.
 
Still think there is a SMALL chance that the Big XII survives and Oklahoma and Okie State decide to stay. ESPN and Longhorn will make some last minute consessions along with other member institutions (Baylor, Iowa State etc). -- Interesting that Texas athletics has over 200 million in long term debt. They want this conference so they can keep paying that down fast and ESPN doesnt want to renegotiate any new contracts with BCS leagues.
