The PAC needs a bigger contract with ESP1N.

All I know since I moved to Seattle about a couple decades ago all I've heard on KJR 950 AM radio is the PAC TV contracts have sucked, still suck and will always suck unless something changes. It's an exciting conference that nobody gets to watch. SEC has CBS, ABC just takes top ten teams and ESPN is all BIG games.

yeah, probably has nothing to do with winning teams.
Ya it's pretty tough to build up a win loss record with an 8 game conference schedule. There's a reason the SEC voted 13 - 1 in favor of not playing each other. It's pretty sad imo when some conference opponents only meet up twice every ten years.

Larry Scott not cutting a deal with DTV has all but killed the PAC Network. He should have been handed his walking papers years ago.

Game 5 the Indians woke the sleeping giants in the Cubs hitters.

I have a feeling if Chapman comes in he will get tattooed for 2-3 runs since he's been used for 3 straight games now with no rest and the Indians have had many opportunities to see his stuff just like the Cubs did to Miller and Kluber.

Last time I checked TAMU was in the SEC.

And?

Let's see what is sad about it:
More bowl money for the SEC
More winning means more TV money
Get to watch other conferences cry about SEC


yeah, it's terrible that we have the system figured out.

And here some would think the whole idea of a conference is the chance to play fellow conference members while making conference rivals. ESP1N sure changed that.

What fellow PAC posters? I post on a couple of different boards, a few PAC Facebook groups and do a podcast now and then. If you're referring to the special thinking Washington posters on this board that posted that they would rather see their rivals get beat by another team even if it meant hurting Washington's chances for a conference title ... ya I don't put too much stock in those kinds of posters.

I know LSU lost two close ones to two solid teams but would they make the playoffs with two losses? I mean it could happen but I think it would cause some serious controversy if it did.
If they win the SECCG and end with two losses they'll be in the playoff. In that scenario Bama would need to have Clemson, Washington or Michigan lose

I'll let this speak for itself.....

Not a good analogy. the only teams in the top ten that had a better regular season record than LSU was Ohio State and Oregon. Everyone else had two losses.

There looks to be several (more than four) teams which will finish the season with fewer than two losses. I don't think the SEC bias would overcome that...

I agree that is a different scenario but hypothetically speaking if LSU wins out they are in the playoff.

Never underestimate the machine that is the "SEC".

Just wanted to let y'all know that Washington is your biggest fans right now. We hope you y'all win out the rest of this season.
As long as UDUB wins out they are in.... CFP committee is just trolling the Huskies a little bit.I also think Bama gets beat this weekend. I got a bad feeling about Saturday....
