Pac-12 to decide whether to expand within a couple weeks

[CYphyllis]

I was in the middle of editing. It's not a troll response, sorry if it doesn't coincide with your fairytale wishes.

It doesn't mean I like it one bit but I'm looking at it realistically.

Realistically? You're a ******* message board poster talking like you have a damn clue.

Here's some basic realism - Everything you type, we've seen 1000 times before. None of it is an original thought, none of it is interesting and most importantly, no one gives a **** about your rehashed troll nonsense.

But it will break your heart, right

It indeed would.

 

[Cyclones1969]

It indeed would.

but if we got demoted to non scholarship fcs football, that would make it all better for you

Because having a 10 team conference was such a good idea? How’s that working out? Lose 1 more team and you’ll be able to play home/away round robin in football too.

It's working about the same as it would have worked out if we loaded up the conference to 14 teams with AAC teams. In other words, # teams /= stability - not when ESPN is brokering deals behind the scenes.

You must have amazing sources or an incredible 6th sense.

Only you have said that. I haven’t.

You mean logic and reasoning?

I grew up in Ames. Went to ISU for a decade. ISU fans can be realistic just as much as optimistic.

Ahh the trying to act smart move by saying big words m. Go back to hawk nation

How is the trying to act like a kindergartner thing working out for you?

 

[scyclonekid]

You know I’m a realist too and can be optimistic. Realistic is legal procedure and optimistic is at the least making same money as we do now.

It’s been many years since I’ve been in kindergarten, although I do miss the naps we used to take.

Does it? KSU and Kansas were #29 and #39 respectively in 2019 according to this.

College Football Value Rankings

Sorry but any article that lists Iowa, S. Carolina and Arkansas as more valuable than USC, Clemson, Florida St. and Oregon is completely nuts. If the Pac 12 came to the Big 10 and said "we will trade you USC for Iowa" the Big 10 would make that deal faster than your head would spin. Same if the ACC would trade Clemson and Florida St to the SEC for Arkansas and S. Carolina.

No AD, conference president or media company thinks that Iowa, S. Carolina and Arkansas have more VALUE than USC and the other I listed.

Its a garbage article, plan and simple.

So you think it's realism that the big 10 needs to go to 16 teams because the SEC did. Iowa state and Kansas are close to their footprint and even though add nowhere near to the value of Texas and Oklahoma but The big 10 will add them to get to the magic number 16. And while they are at it the Big 10 is happy to help ESPN and the SEC make this move!!

Take away the OSU 10 safety net and they're not.

Hypotheticals can be fun, but as the #5 earner in the B1G and the teams in the league being totally happy, there is no way this happens. You can “imagine” that OSU leaves the B1G, but there is no situation in the next decade that makes this a foreseeable reality.

In what world did my response cover anything you're trying to argue.

It's almost like you have a single argument you've ripped from the internet in the last decade and you don't actually have the ability to process change and veer off to another salient point.

Not that I'm surprised, I mean you're a ******* message board poster when it comes down to it.

Lol. Win a conference title this century

win one your own without having to be co-champs, and actually play the team you tied with. Oh, and win one where your SOS is decent. And what Big 10 title did Iowa win where they accomplished more than ISU did last year? 8-1, finish at the top of the league (ALONE) with a top 20 SOS while going round robin, not dodging the top teams. Iowa has 4 Big 10 titles in the modern era, they tied for 3 of them, and all for of those, they did not play the co-champ!!!. Oh and the one they won outright, Iowa won it by 1/2 a game because they had ties back then, no overtime. So if there was overtime Iowa would have tied for that one too. They only played 8 conference games. Anyway, finishing alone at the standings at the end of season, Iowa has only done that once, and it was because of two teams tying on the scoreboard.
