I'm hearing the Pac-16.

If there's now 2 different threads, does that make a 32 team conference..?

(I like the idea obviously of a PAC-XII merger)...

Where the hell are the late games we were promised as a silver lining of the Big Ten and Big 12 moving west? BYU at Colorado was the only P4 late game last night. 
 

Fox continues to roll with baseball on Saturday night. FS1 played a damn replay of USC at Illinois at 9pm last night. Shameful.

I can’t recall USC, Oregon , or Washington playing a home game after 7pm CST since the Big Ten move. 

The Big 12/ESPN are kind of doing their part, but it’s almost always a Colorado home game.

NBC/Peacock somehow won TV. Once a week pregame studio, and then a marquee game of the week in primetime. They had the Ohio State at Oregon classic last year, and another great game last night in Oregon at Penn State.

I was collecting viewer data for another snarky put down of the B12, and I noticed something interesting. Fox’ Big Noon usually has a floor of 4M viewers, when it has decent B1G teams or good B12 teams. Exception: week 3, Oregon at NW, Big Noon had 2N viewers. 
 
That’s awful. 
 
During realignment, I contended that Oregon was free riding, propped up by Nike’s influence. That program has no intro sic fan base and has to buy recruits from other regions. When they might have the best team in the country, they can’t attract viewers. 
 
I really wish they had been consigned to the ACC.

ESPN has been using the ACC - specifically Cal - for their late night slot. This past week was the exception (but there was nothing wrong with watching #5 Montana take on #8 Idaho in the battle for the little brown stein on ESPN2).
