Regarding the 4 PAC Schools…
This is a move that I would love to see that would benefit the ACC, the PAC schools and a wash for the Big 12…
The Big 12 lets WVU, Cincy and UCF out to go to the ACC.
Those 3 spots free up spots in the Big 12 to add Oregon State, Washington State and Cal. This locks up the late night window with multiple options.
Stanford goes independent until the B1G comes calling shortly. You know they will add them eventually.
This take cares of everyone for now and gives these 2 P4 conferences more regionality and keeps travel costs down.
This probably makes too much sense which is why it will never happen.

I'd watch those games, and an OSU OSU Halloween match up would be pretty cool.
I guess the schools get a vote, but only if the networks allow a vote.

I, for one, would love to have the WVU rivalry back

Therefore it will never happen.

I found that there seems to be very little coordination between conferences
Maybe there are legal reasons for it. But it does seem frustrating that there isn't more of it.

are not them, there could be a meeting of the minds to find a more geographic collusion, but it is very unlikely, as schools and markets are not equal.
