Doesn't look like it. Pac 12 could try a move of adding Boise State, Fresno State, San Jose State and San Diego State. While those schools have a decent fan base I doubt it's enough to generate wealthy TV contracts and compete with Big 10 and SEC. I think its just a matter of time until we see Cal, Stanford, Oregon and Washington move to the Big 10. The remaining Pac 12 teams would probably move to either Mountain West or Big 12. Sucks. I don't like the way the CFB landscape keeps changing and sacrificing tradition for money.

Big Ten IMO within 12 months adds Washington and Stanford.

Our era of Independence might be coming to a close.

Could be time to go either all in with the ACC or the Big Ten.

Both would do cartwheels to have us.

This conference is a greater loss to college football than the Big12-4+2-2+4+1?. Teams like Oregon State and Berkely only have value when they are playing in a rivalry with 100 years of tradition.

I personally think it's too bad a major conference with a long history is falling apart, due to financial issues. Football money's now driving everything in college sports, for better or for worse.

I have some serious doubts if they survive. It is more and more apparent the big 10 and SEC will be the two conferences unless something gets in the mix

Disaster, UT/OU in the SEC and USC/UCLA in the Big 10.

B12 is stable now but will the ACC survive after their GOR expires? There could be only 3 (P5) conferences.
