Obviously, since the Mountain West is at 12 football members and there are only two Pac-12 teams, the expansion would be in order to get up to 16 teams. Dellenger cited both South Dakota State and North Dakota State as the top candidates. He did explain that they or whoever would join would have to start in the lower division, but how the other teams are decided is a work in progress.

Filbert makes a point. The next shoe to drop should take some time. The MWC has 8 schools west of the Rockies. There are four more east of the Rockies. Given the opportunity I would guess most would consider joining with OSU and WSU a step forward. Would WSU and OSU feel the same? Maybe not, but where else? The potential issues include dollar commitments. Would all the MWC schools be willing to commit the money needed to keep the media interested in the conference and move together? If not, that may cause a split. Then there could be east/west fracturing and the Big Sky and western MVFC schools could come into play.

Rumors tare hat Stanford would go non-scholarship. Doubt that though. Does the MWC want risk bringing them in? One risk would be the old PAC schools later splitting off and taking the the western schools of the MWC, San Diego St, San Jose St, Fresno St Boise St, etc. with them.

Right now, they have 4 schools (officially now). I doubt the autobid will stay, Big East lost theirs once they split into the American. I doubt any TV deal will be remotely good with the teams left.

Originally posted by ringthebells View PostEverything I read says the PAC-12 is done. What would it take to keep the conference alive? Could they get enough decent teams to keep it going and still get a TV deal that is worth while? Would anybody leave their conference to join them? Will they be able to keep their auto-bid into the CFP as an inticement?

With Oregon and Washington officially joining the Big Ten, the Pac 12 is dead. Wonder what Cal, Stanford, Oregon St., and Washington St. will do…

Highly speculative article on CBSSports.com discussing potential for a P5 conference being bought by a 3rd party.
