Looks like Beavs (and Cougs) won full control of pac2 board and the 400 million cash. Unclear what will happen with it, they probably can't keep it all, but at least they won't have the exiting schools all immediately cashing it out.

Hopefully luring 8 (at least) other solid schools into the Pac.
 
The Washington State Supreme Court issued a temporary stay of Tuesday's preliminary injunction that was set to grant control of the Pac-12 board of directors to Oregon State and Washington State on Monday.

Maybe this will give the Beavers a little extra motivation when they play Saturday!

in order to dissolve the MWC it would take 9 votes. Meaning at least 9 of the teams would need to have guarantees of being invited into the re-formatted PAC. So, for scheduling, it would probably need to be 10 teams taken making a new Pac-12

I'm not sure which two would be left out. But the MWC has, 3 or 4 times since all this started, issued statements of solidarity; and the MWC commisioner has said no teams would be left behind. Of course, we've seen how that can go

after everything the Pac-2 have said about loyalty and solidarity it would be pretty wild if those two schools tried to break up the MWC and leave some of the teams in limbo. Probably just be simpler and be better PR to take all 12 teams and make a Pac-14. Looking at the teams, if they wanted 2 divisions there's a fairly easy separation into Pacific and Mountain divisions. Might be simpler with no divisions though

Wish I had a ticket

I've a close Duck friend who has a son at OSU. They bought tickets to this game for 75$ each and now could sell them for $500, which is big money for their family as he's a teacher. The son was offered the choice of a Skiing weekend over Christmas for the family or keeping the tickets... they're going to the game.

That's hard-core :smiley-smiley-049:
 
I think the Beavers will get rolled.

Id love to see the Beavers mess the national rankings up and win out.

GO BEAVS!

Gonna be as good as it’s gotten for a long time here for OSU football.
 
Was watching the Michigan vs Maryland game. I hate feeling like a few bad calls would possibly have made a difference in the game. Seems college football got its big game next week. Michigan will not beat the Buckeyes.

That depends if Oregon State wins out and wins the Pac-12 championship game.

the Pac-12 championship allows a team to outright win the conference, and Oregon State hasn't done that since 1941 (if Wikipedia is correct).

Also, it's the last year of existence of the Pac-12 as we know it. Oregon State would win the last conference title.
 
Supposedly Chip Kelly will be fired .

But if UCLA beats USC at the Coliseum, shouldn't Lincoln Riley be the one who is fired?

UCLA could end up with the same conference record as USC (5-4) with the tiebreaker.
 
Interesting that the eleventh ranked Beavs are 1 point favorites over the fifth ranked Huskies. Beavs would be doing the Ducks a big favor handing the Huskies their first loss and it would set up an epic game in what used to be called the Civil War.

I disagree. I don’t think a one loss Huskies would help the ducks get into the playoff.

Well, I think if the Ducks end the season with a Pac12 championship and only one defeat that came halfway into the season, to a team they likely have to beat to win that championship... that should put them in the playoffs especially because Ohio State or Michigan will have a more recent loss when the committee picks who the four teams are. So I don't think the outcome of today's Oregon State v Washington game has any effect on if Oregon will make the playoffs, it will just determine what Oregon is ranked next week.

I see ylur point, even if Husky were to lose today, if they beat the Ducks again anyway it wont matter

The worry is if Bama beat Georgia and now they’re a one loss and you have to try to beat out Georgia for a spot. There is definitely an east coast bias. It could be tOSU, FSU, Bama and then you’re trying to beat out Georgia and if Washington is only like rank 8 then the win doesn’t look as good.

13-0 Michigan beats OSU, barely
13-0 FSU and the ACC champion
12-1 Alabama beats Georgia for SEC title, barely

(those 3 above would be in, for certain)

12-1 Texas - Big-12 champion
12-1 Georgia is two-time national champion
12-1 Oregon is Pac-12 champion
11-1 Ohio State

I can easily see Oregon getting screwed

Oregon' two big wins over Utah and USC have lost a lot of gravity over the last 2 weeks; a lot

I think it actually might be better if the Ducks pick up 2 wins over top-10 teams (OSU/UofW) in their final two games
 
Kicking it out of the back of the end zone was probably a good decision.
 
How are two teams from the PNW this bad at playing in the rain????
