  1. Lulz. Some longhorn fans going full aggy was definitely not on my realignment Bingo card. But it's hilarious to watch.
  2. 5+7. Simple fix with the PAC's death.
  3. Horseshit. I literally do so almost every damn week of the season. I even watch local FCS games. Yes, I will watch a decent matchup between two teams in my region (Rocky Mountains) over some big-name matchup between teams a thousand miles away more often than not. If you'll always default to the bigger name, that's totally fine, but don't act like you have a clue what I'll watch for myself.
  4. All of this. I enjoy the lesser-known late-night games, and as a longtime mountain time zone resident, I enjoy watching MWC teams play in a still regional league outside of the big-time limelight. I'd turn on a WSU vs Boise game anytime as the nightcap to a solid day.
  5. For the sake of argument, a good portion of that extra AAC money will be eaten up by the ridiculous travel (UW estimated an additional $10m per year for their B1G travel).
  6. They'll have offers from both the MWC and AAC; that's the decision. (I hope to god they take the MWC, but some sports personalities have already been suggesting they should take the AAC).
  7. Basking sharks are harmless but I'd bet the vast majority of people wouldn't know so in the moment
  8. Look I don't need this negativity in my life, muchacho.
  9. Don't wanna get ahead of myself but... maybe I could see Cal when a conference title in my lifetime.
  10. Are you literally asking what else could drive up endowments of major universities? Even though I already told you the endowment increase of those two universities is nothing out of the norm for well managed university endowments? Do you understand university financials and all that goes into them at all?
  11. Suggesting this is correlated to the Big XII is stupid. Any decently run university will see their endowment grow at a good clip. In the same timeframe, Baylor's grew from 870 million to a little over 2 billion. Hell the AVERAGE growth among R1 schools just in fiscal 2021 was over 30%.
  12. What in the name of god
  13. As a Cal fan, I doubt Cal has (or would ever get) a Big XII offer.
  14. Cal rugby is a powerhouse
  15. While I have no doubt this is true for some people I also think it's one of those things that gets overblown on the interwebs. In my 7 years at Stanford and Cal I never met anyone who didn't have great things to say about my undergrad (Baylor).
  16. That's badass (I mean, maybe not for you, but I would have loved it).
  17. I'd honestly be cool with this
  18. I was there during peak Harbaugh years and the stadium was still only half full.
  19. Just depends on how you're defining "better." The average Big XII team has been better, but the ACC has much greater variance, including better performance at the top end.
  20. Probably bullshit. But a lot of Cal whale donors are apparently pulling out all the stops.
  21. Cal peeps I know waver from optimistic to existential dread on a minute by minute basis.
  22. See this is why I don't ski.
  23. That just doesn't sound like a Stanford thing to do.
  24. From where I sat on the east side of Cal Memorial Stadium you could see where the Bay opened into the Pacific Ocean. This is all crazy town.
