Predictions for RMS

[Darth Snow]

They have gotten uppity lately.... I thought they were going to the Big12?

the best thing about fantasies is that they are easy to change when reality bites.

rn: Fresno St, BYU, CSU, and SDSU to round out the Pac-16 when all said and done

now that is some funny ****.

The top posters on RM are equal to the bottom posters on AB. I can see why I don't regularly see Csquared posting over there. I bet he has posted here 3 times as much. I'm starting to think we should make a website for reasonable Ram fans.

I don't see any reason to hate the school to the north until I go to Invesco or browse rm.

why would you make a website for only four people?

They have one for all of the rest of the Rams fans who care enough to post, its called ramnation. And they have five people on a good day.

Their other DE starter James has just transferred, along with a safety leaving for BYU, and the dismissals of Orakpo and Capi.

We better run through their defense like Turbolax through Jeff Daniels intestinal tract.

Taking a look at their depth chart post graduation and expulsions/departures, the goats look pretty thin on their defensive front seven.

I had to look at RM this morning. After ignoring the only guy posting on the first page I got to the second and how they really think the Pac-12 will take them. They we sure that they had a deal with the Big 12 that if they had a stadium they would get an invite. But now they are sure they are going to the Big 12.

I love my state. I've lived in several different states in my life but I always come back home. I love it here and I root for all things Colorado. But damn they are stupid on that site. It really makes me want to see them fail and I hate that.

I was reading that this morning also. I like going to Ramnation for my daily delusion. CU's crappy play for the past 6 years as knocked most of that out of the CU fanbase - but it is still going strong for the Rams!

That eyesore of a thread again makes the boneheaded assumption that the Pac 12 HAS to expand to 16. It doesn't (sacky approved). As mentioned in the expansion thread, the Pac 12 has a stranglehold in the West, and if anything should not expand because it consolidates more power to each Pac 12 school instead of the watered down 16 team conference with more mouths to feed. The SEC is learning right now that while the new schools add more money to the overall TV contract, they don't really add enough to make a major per team TV revenue increase. I think we can sit back and watch how the SEC/ACC 14 team conferences work...or fail. The Pac 12 will only expand when it makes sense.

Agreed - and expansion is only going to occur going east..... The Pac isn't going to cannibalize existing TV markets just for the sake of adding new schools.

Excellent analysis. The P12 has every major school in the Mountain and Pacific time zones locked down. The west is a differnt beast than the east where there are many, many more schools. Once you hit Mtn. /Pac. time zones, besides UU, CU, ASU, UA, SC, Cal, Stan.,UW, WSU, UO, Ore. St. and fUCLA, who else draws? Maybe BYU, maybe Boise, maybe AF, but the P12 already has those markets locked up with a neighboring school (see Colorado and Utah) or doesn't want the market anyway (see Boise).

In addition they will need to be a good fit on the academic side of things with the Pac.

That issue is kind of interesting. I mean Arizona State is in the Pac.
