If Pac-12 Can’t Get TV Deal Right It Can’t Survive
"If Pac-12 games really are airing on Saturdays after twenty-year-old reruns of Everybody Loves Raymond and an infomercial for Rodent Sheriff, would schools like Utah and Oregon want to stick around?"

The real story here is that ESPN and Fox apparently only had enough money for one of the Pac 12 and Big 12. Pretty crazy.At what point do we start to pity the Pac-12?

The CW has no money. If that's the direction this is going any Pac 12 school that can get an invitation to the Big 12 (they apparently have the ability to offer such invites with pro-rata equivalency in their TV deal) will have no choice but to take it.

Yah watched a podcast yesterday talking about how the parent company of the cw/stations they would of been on only wanted to put them on their western US stations and not nationally. While most of their stations are east of the rockies.

The CW Isn’t The Sports TV Pariah You Think It Is
According to Variety, it is the 25th most-watched television network. You may not watch it but somebody is.

They did carry Cardinals game maybe 15-20 years ago in Central IL. They've been there before. I still have to think that this would have been a huge failure for PAC-12 if this is where their games had gone.The CW Isn’t The Sports TV Pariah You Think It Is

CW didn't carry them. They were simulcasting KPLR or KSDK games from St. Louis.

Behind a pay wall, but the twitter synopsis tells me:
1. Larry Scott was a very bad commissioner
2. A messy situation could get even messier

My interview for B1G referee position is watch this video and then explain whether or not this is defensive pass interference.

I was at this game ... my first game in YEARS (and my wife's first ever), and we watched the refs heavily assist our team in blowing a chance to go to Indy on a hideously cloudy day with temperatures so cold we started to see snow flurries. Ugh.
