[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 132096436, member: 1428007"] The BIG 12 still has a very good shot at landing PAC schools because the PAC is still destabilized. Schools continue to want out of that league and almost certainly some are going because otherwise UCLA and USC are way out by themselves. The only window where they have any kind of presence is late night because there is no competition and the schools don’t like that window-it’s a reason they were unstable to begin with. Oregon and Washington in order to not leave right away want more revenues than other schools. Schools in that conference don’t want to sign long term grants of rights deals. They’ve already passed their initial negotiation window without an ESPN deal and Fox reportedly did not choose to bid, They were the least competitive football league already outside of the ACC and now have Lost two schools that traditionally have been stronger than most others. Far more likely to make playoffs and now with multiple teams. Meanwhile the BIG 12 has stabilized, has availability to fill coast to coast broadcast windows, is a highly competitive league across the board in both major sports. Experts project their future revenues to be higher than those of the PAC. [/QUOTE]
