College Football 2013 Season

If Texas goes, it will be to PAC.

[Imran Siddiqui]

The ACC potential deal allows Texas to keep Longhorn Network. Hence, why Texas may be interested when the Big 12 collapses around them.

[Boris Godunov]

Final score of the game: 56-7 Oregon. Best stat: At halftime the score was 35-7. Meanwhile, Mo St. had possessed the ball for 23.5 minutes, the Ducks 6.5 minutes. One scoring drive lasted 37 seconds.

Next week starts Pac-12 play against Arizona at the Zoo. But given their miserable performance against Stanford last night, it will probably be a walk-over. Arizona should try to recruit a kicker from the streets around campus or something.

[Guynemer]

"The Pac-12 appears to be working out the final details of a deal that would bring Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech to the conference, sources close to the situation told Hookem.com and the American-Statesman on Sunday morning."

Jesus tap-dancing Christ, make it stop.

[Guynemer]

In other rumors, WVU has allegedly applied to the SEC, while the new Pac-16 will break down into 4 "pods": Heartland (the Big 12 group), Mountain (Arizona duo and the two newcomers this season), California (duh), and the Northwest (duh).

I have no idea how that is supposed to work, but it sounds positively delightful.

[H Tower]

Yeah, the Illini (!) look to be the only significant threat to the Badgers in the Why's Wisconsin Here? division.

Got home from the game just this afternoon. Thank God for the defense making a ton of big plays or the game would have been boring as all hell. Post game activities involved rescuing a keg from the middle of Florida ave that fell out of a pickup truck in too big of a hurry to leave, and then engaging in keg throwing competitions.

[Tupac Shakur]

(and, honestly? **** Texas).

[Guynemer]

Honestly, whichever conference ends up taking Texas is going to have a serious case of buyer's remorse, unless they actually manage to scuttle the Longhorn Network, and even then...

Their sense of entitlement makes my fellow Michigan alums look like a gaggle of Dickensian orphans.

[Tupac Shakur]

They really deserve to be passed on by every major conference and forced to spend a couple decades in a new Southwest Conference with UTEP and Rice until they learn some humility. That's almost certainly not going to happen, though.

[Ming]

Great concept... but yeah, not going to happen... sigh.

[Ben Kenobi]

What would be wrong with a new Southwest conference with Rice, UTEP, Oklahoma, Oklahoma St, etc. That sounds fun.

[SlowwHand]

Sounds fine to me.

[Imran Siddiqui]

The problem is that Oklahoma wants nothing to do with a Texas dominated conference anymore.

[H Tower]

The problem is that No One wants anything to do with a Texas dominated conference anymore.

Fixed

[Guynemer]

Newest rumor is that Notre Dame is looking at the ACC, as opposed to the Big Ten.
