There’s no way it makes financial sense…

With Oregon and Washington going to the BIG and the Arizona schools going to the Big-12, that leaves Stanford, Cal, Oregon State, Washington State and Utah. Those brands do not bring enough to the table to increase the value of the conference as a whole.

If it's a merger, do they own half the Rose Bowl? That could be worth a lot**

The article mentions UO and UW being included in a merger

Entirely dependent on if ESPN is willing to pay for it.
tarheelblue • 08/03/23 03:23 PM ET
If they were, the PAC wouldn't be imploding as we speak
Vienna_Hokie • 08/03/23 04:15 PM ET
If they want to match what they give to each SEC school, then why not?
