YIPEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
This is Merry Christmas and Happy New Year all wrapped up in a beautiful (part one) Pac12 parting gift!
Ha ha haaaa and LOL.
On a side note, this Bowl season has been nothing short of spectacular. I don't remember a slew of more entertaining tightly fought games. We gotta enjoy it while it lasts.

LOVE IT !! While I would have been okay with the Bruins winning, I am ecstatic with the condoms losing .... especially an epic melt down with 4:07 left on the clock and up by 15. Even eclipses the Ducks melt down to the Beavs.
Sweet!

This year has been really good. I was complaining about how bad the bowl games usually are and the playoff mismatches, but not this year!

Yeah, I wouldn't have cared if UCLA won. It's nice to see the Bruins lose after they were crying about how they should've had a better opponent for their bowl game lol!
As good of an offensense of coach LC is he's had some real letdowns postseason.

Yeah. It's been crazy this post-season.
I've always subscribed to the philosophy that defense wins championships.
Time to re-evaluate.

Seems this year is all about "whoever has the ball last wins". Other than the few lopsided wins, last minute scoring won the day in multiple games. Ducks (could have / should have done that to the Beavs), Georgia (which was a super enjoyable win over fOSU), Tulane (another enjoyable win over U$C), Arkansas (3 OT's), FSU, Pitt (over Ucla), Notre Dame.
Also, at least for Utah, it was a year about "keeping your star QB healthy". Two years in a row Rising gets hurt in the second half and is out. Bummer for the Utes. Not sure they could have beaten Penn anyway, but Risin would have made the game closer. Ducks learned that the hard way also. Underscores a team needs a decent QB backup. Hope our new 4* is it, as Ty certainly doesn't look to be it.

Besides Oregon winning, nothing brings me greater joy in college football than the luckeyes losing🥳🎊😁
Everybody talks about the unfairness of NIL and related issues but scheduling never seems to enter the equation?
Both the Luckeyes and Michigan had 8 home / 4 away regular season games this year with one of those games of course being when they played each other.
The luckeyes began the season with 5 consecutive home games; away game; home game...so just past the halfway point of the season they had played 1 road game?!?
Do I believe the Big Ten orchestrates it that way...of course. Do you think they would get that split playing in the SEC?
By contrast, TCU was 6/6 on home-away games; Georgia was 6 / 4 and 2 neutral site games... Oregon and Florida(played in Jacksonville).
It is also why Iowa should have an asterisk every season by their W-L record because they almost never leave the State of Iowa for non-conference games...they play Iowa State alternating home and away...then home for every non-conference game. Kirk Ferentz is the biggest chicken s*** P5 head football coach.
Entitlement runs rampant through the Little Ten and from top to bottom they really aren't very good. I believe USC and UCLA will regret their decision to join the Little Ten at some point.

The SoCal schools made a pact with the Devil. They got greedy and stabbed the PAC in the back under cover of night for a bag of cash. I hope that UO/UW have taken a giant step back in light of other happenings in the CFB world...
Best thing to have happened was the expansion of the CFB announced after they completed their sign-off to the B1G. Now the PAC has two less teams at this time to claw over to get that guaranteed spot in the playoff while the B1G has two more teams with watered down chances to hit the playoff.
I sincerely hope the PAC as it is remains together. At ten teams, the conference can round robin the entire conference to determine the best two teams to play the conference title game. Or add in SDSU plus one (UNLV, CSU) to round out the South division...

There is still the issue of money, but expanding the playoffs does offer the PAC some options for now. Adding SDSU and UNLV (TV market+ large recruiting area) sounds like a good idea, or as you say keep it at 10. I still feel Oregon does not want to get into anything long term right now.
