No. Not really, but they have their specialties. Wazzu has a strong vet program and osu is a leader in turf science and seed research.

So they're aggy.  I think I've identified the problem.

Probably true about Berkeley, but mixing academic snobbery and athletics is why the Pac is in this position. Are the academic standards at Oregon St and Wazzu really that high? I don't care enough to look.

No, that’s why they are 2 of the 4 schools that the B1G is NOT considering when they decide to poach.

The PAC's big concern is exposure for its good football programs.  They can probably achieve that with a media rights deal, in lieu of CTZ expansion.  It's easy to forget now, but back about a decade ago, the PAC's national perception in college football was favorable.  The slide away from that started with their current TV deal.  They didn't have any great Tier 1 exposure on a major platform anymore and a ton of their inventory was buried on their PACN platform and on FS1. 

Under the prior deal, Disney was giving the PAC (SC specifically) a ton of media exposure.  You couldn't turn on SportsCenter during college football season without seeing a story about Pete Carroll, Will Ferrell, and some prank the Trojans played during practice.    

If they grabbed the mid-afternoon kickoff slot from CBS, or got something like that from NBC, SC and Oregon are going to be nationally visible again.  That probably helps them stop the bleed of CA's high school talent to other conferences, too.

Uh... yeah.  I'm pretty sure everyone on the planet knows this.

But that doesn't make all of them aggy.

Oregon State has a legit Top 3 College of Forestry. That's a pretty big difference.

A top tree school should be just fine with coniferous realignment.

You have no idea the hate between idaho and the smurfs. Non starter. 

Good for them or not, pac will not take byu. There are maybe 5 or 6 schools left in that conference that give a shit about athletics and byu's baggage will never get approval. 

You're right. Pac won't add BYU because of their intolerance and snobbery (even though many of BYU's grad schools outrank most of the Pac's and BYU incoming GPA and test scores are equal to or higher than most of the Pac). But most of the Pac schools are happy to schedule us because we load their stadiums up with fans and they happy to cash those checks. We play 4 of the Pac teams this year.

Boise is a non-starter. Regardless of eyeballs for a school that I still don't think has sold out a home football game in almost 20 years (fact check it, not positive), Berkley isn't going to allow a school that still offers a truck driving degree into the pac. 

I think the pac grabs okie lite and tech and who knows else. I would say 2 of the following: san diego state (state school, state school) unlv and new mexico. 

Their new commissioner seems infinitely more capable than scott. I also wouldn't be surprised with some sort of alliance with the Big. 

A truck driving degree?  Shirley you jest?

Just accept that you're the guy walking up to a party to which you were not invited, and nobody wants you to stay. You can have a beer (well, figuratively at least), but then you gotta go so the rest of us can enjoy the evening.

Pretty bold talk for someone who never beat Texas as a coach or player

He always trolled Georgia because they beat him as QB when Florida was ranked #1.

It's sweet to know he sucked ass in the NFL on 2 horrible teams (ninnys and buc-Os) over 10 years and was sacked 32 times in his last season under the old tackling rules. Both his own teams and the opposing teams must have rubbed his nose in it about his "heisman trophy" every chance they got.  What a bitter little old cunt!

I think the big 12 will hold together for the next season for no other than to make Texas pay to get out. Ifnthey have to wait till 23, whats it to them?  Banking them sweet longhorn dollars is an end in and of itself.

Spurrier is kind of like a Tom Osborne without an ounce of even public civility.

And to think, we were kind enough to win him a national title while he was at UF.

You know who makes the best shit talkers? People that don't give a fuck when you point out shit like you guys are attempting to do.  They just smile, call you a pussy, and keep talking shit.

Lol.  Jim McMahon was raised Catholic.  That makes the pic more believable!  The truth behind that pic is more likely, “these are mine, you can drink milk.”

Steve Spurrier's still alive?  Well no shit, good for him.

Weird flex to hate on the big 12 and UT specifically when Texas played OU to overtime and Florida lost to them by 5 TD’s.

Does this board do a deep dive into a different fringe religion every week, or exclusively Mormonism? When is Theosophy scheduled? I've been hoping to learn more.

Spurrier seems to enjoy talking shit when he knows it will get a reaction.  Based on a few comments on this board he may have picked the right target.  UT has a ton of money, great academic reputation, hot women, and is joining the best CFB conference.  Perhaps disregard the intentional troll attempts.

It sucks we have to play in Missouri, but hell, these will be sweaty games. That's a bonus. Fuck the cold weather football. 

The 1st Big12 conference game in '96 was against Misery.  It was a washout game that had a lightning delay, and then my classmate got arrested as one of the several guys who ran out of the stands to belly-flop in the giant puddles on the field. He said he was the only guy not-drunk to do it, and that it was worth it. He did it with no fear because his lawyer dad sprung him from jail quickly.
Texas had an inspired defensive (Westbrook blocked punt TD) game when the game resumed, and along with Ricky/Priest TDs and Texas won, 40-10.  That was a helluva time at DKR!
