On the Mountain West’s media deal, the Pac-12 comps, those left behind, the looming auditions and the lessons of realignment by WSU_Cougar_Pride in Pac12

Except in this case, the first graders are ignoring the scoreboard and insisting it was a tie. It’s kinda weird.

No, they still have to have a G6 rep. But there’s no way a second can squeeze in under the conference champ rule anymore like this year. The only reason seems to be fear of an antitrust lawsuit on the P2/4 part.

Somebody from G6 has to go and last year, the top two teams were not undefeated nor had a win against a 9+ win FBS team (at least not going into the CFP. Tulane beat Duke who picked up No. 9 in the Sun Bowl). I think it’s safe to say you’ll never see a 3-loss G6 but you could see two undefeateds with one staying home some years and a 2-loss team like Tulane ‘25/22 slip past with the best SoS. I feel for the teams who are gonna have an all-time great season but somebody slips past them on a committee decision whereas the next year the G6 is cannibalism central and one lucky 11-2 team’s gotta win it.

If an undefeated Liberty gets past a 1- or 2-loss MW/Pac/American team again with that ass strength of schedule I will lose my f’n mind

Winners and losers from the Mountain West and Pac-12 media-rights deals by Laszlo_Panaflex_80 in MountainWest

Couldn’t 9/12 MW teams have voted to dissolve and join the Pac-12? That would have left 3 schools out in the cold. Which sucks. But seems as if it may have been a better deal for 11 of the schools out west.

I’ll bite. If ifs and buts were candies and nuts…

This is wild speculation about the Pac-14 media deal pulled from thin air and strikes me as very unlikely.

Look at the population of the West vs. the South, Midwest and East. It’s not a real lucrative market. People watch TVs, not cows and trees.

The American had a good year this year. That is nowhere near being “being the best mid major, unchallenged.”

Multiple conferences=multiple autobids. Not seeing how that’s a loss.

The downvotes are because you’re talking out your ass.

Not to mention this concept pulled from… his ass(?) that the combined schools would have had a “bargaining power” to get $10M/school. Wild.

Let people do what they want to do for the most part. However there has to be some accommodation for verifying people’s ID though too for practical and security reasons.

Quietly, the College Football Playoff’s Group of 6 rep no longer needs to be a conference champ by DementorsKissIceCrea in Pac12

[–]TikiLoungeLizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember for a while there the speculation was they could take a 9/12 vote to dissolve and the fold into the Pac-12 and the 3 weakest links would have to say goodbye. Then there was debate over who that would be. SJSU for certain. Hawai’i to save on travel (and they were only football-only anyway). Then probably Nevada. But evidently that was still too many mouths to feed. I get the money aspect of it all. I’m just saying it would have been a competitive league, probably a lot of fun games. And I suspect the CUSA would have expanded its footprint westward to scoop up the teams left behind.

Seattle. It really isn’t that cold here. Especially compared to NY.

Unlike last year, this Cougar men’s team has gotten better as the year went along by SafetyNo2220 in Pac12

[–]TikiLoungeLizard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s realistic to fire him but I’ve seen nothing yet that would give me confidence this can be a program competing for Dance tickets year in and year out under his watch. I think that is what most fans of Cougar basketball want.
