.....Emerald Green and Lemon Yellow.....

I hear you,.. my way of thinking too. Could be a message to Texas, shape up or phuck off. Although, I hope Larry Scott doesn't mess around and lose out on Oklahoma and OSU. I really want them in the PAC.

 

Articles from Oregon beat writer Rob Mosely, and dumbass sports opinion columnist, George Schroeder. Note: Schroeder to date, has been totally wrong about this subject,.. every time.

"Pac-12 decides NOT to expand" | Opinions on Sports with George Schroeder | The Register-Guard

.....Scott met with Texas officials last weekend in Los Angeles. But a source indicated the commissioner left the meetings believing the school’s newly established Longhorn Network was a significant obstacle that couldn’t be overcome.
Pac-12 members had agreed to equally share all revenue and to cede all media rights to the league. Sources were adamant that the Pac-12 would not allow any member to retain its own rights or revenue.
In the statement, Scott indicated as much, taking what appeared to be a very thinly veiled shot at Texas: “We have a strong conference structure and culture of equality that we are committed to preserve.”.....

You think the PAC sucks,.. got it. I'm not clear on the purpose behind your point? I enjoy the dialogue though,..So, I'll play along.

The PAC is very deep in good experianced QB's,.. I expect the conference to be very tough this year.

I expect Stanford, Arizona, USC, California, Washington, to field very strong teams.

I'm thinking Washington State, will contnue to improve. Maybe upset a team or two.

I'll go out on a limb; I predict Arizona State will have a disapointing season,.. Dennis Erickson will be fired, and former Duck, Mike Bellotti will become their new head coach.

Beaver's have a great coach in Mike Riley. They have little depth, and they are hurting. Oregon State's offense the last couple of years, has been a 2 trick pony. The Rodgers' brothers,.. Quiz graduated, and James is hurt bad. Good chance they only win 3 or 4 games this year. Maybe Riley can save their season,.. I don't think so.

I lived in the LA area when Bill Walton played for UCLA, I was a big fan. I still tend to pull for them. Hopefully, Newheisal can turn them around,.. I don't think so.

Colorado? .. truthfully, I don't really know what to expect.

Utah looks strong so far, the spin has been that they will get beat up against strong PAC competition, and struggle at the end of the season...opcorn:


Oregon ? We've got a lot to prove,.. Saturday is going to be a good test in a hostile venue. Except; Arizona doesn't have much of a run game. Ducks intercept Foles twice.

Oregon 42 17

 

Mike Riley led the Beaver's to a winning year, after 24 consecutive losing seasons. When he left to become coach of the SD Chargers, Dennis Erickson took over at OSU, and reaped the rewards of Riley's fine work. Riley returned to Oregon State, and the Beavs have been near the top of the conference, until last year.

"Great don't leave a lot of room", I agree with that. Perhaps, he's not a great coach, but he's done a lot in a very tough place to win. I admire him, even Duck fans know, he's a great guy.
