We have fantasized and debated this for years. USC fan have often said the conference screwed them
Don't think I ever thought I would see it happen. Are you happy? Sad? What do you think caused all this? I mean USC survived Larry Scott and the new guy seems better. Why leave now? Appears USC was the one who really pushed for this.
My gosh those are some long long road trips. Especially for non revenue sports that often don't fly or fly commercial coach.
I wonder if the Pac-12 comes begging by throwing more money at USC (and Ucla) to stay. I remember how USC was dominating 15 years ago and was sharing all the money equally with all conference teams. Why would the Cougars or Beavers get as much money as USC? USC deserves more that 1/12 of the Pac-12 TV deal. Maybe 1/4. And all bowl teams should keep whatever bowl money they earn (or maybe share only half).
Nice to see a big FU to the Pac-12 refs. We have been so screwed in multiple games vs Stanford and Oregon over the past 20+ years.
