What an absolute cluster. I gotta say I'm on the side of OSU and WSU with this one.
Coworker said that the ideal outcome of all of this is the rest of the PAC loses their rights and Utah wins the nc but OSU and WSU only split the funds amongst each other. And I gotta tell you that the kind of twist I can get behind.
Edit: Can OSU and WSU, as the only members with votes, vote to kick out the rest of the PAC before the conclusion of the season? If so that means the matchup on 9/23 is the defacto PAC championship game. Winner gets an auto bid.
Yup. If the leavers wanted to dissolve the conference, they should have figured it out in advance and, y’know, dissolved the conference. Instead, they acted like everything was fine, and then ran around like chickens with their heads cut off.
I’m sure there will be a settlement, but I hope WSU and OSU take everybody to the cleaners.
Auto bid? Are you talking about the Rose Bowl?
Nah, cfp lol
Oh, for next year? Isn't there some rule about minimum number of members for:
I think that number is like, 9 members or something. So OSU and WSU are gonna have to find 7 or 8 friends real quick.
Also, it's not completely auto. A G5 champ can get in over a P5 champ.
True. In most years based on the rankings, all 5 P5s would be in, plus one G5 as the sixth auto-bid, but there could have been scenarios where 2 G5s could leave a P5 out.
I guess it's worth noting that the PAC was resistant to this 12-team CFP model, even though it's vastly better for their conference than the 4-team version. They really wanted a fully automatic playoff berth (and now given how their conference is imploding, that auto-bid could have been a bit of glue to hold them together).
Aren't all of the teams leaving before next year when the expanded playoffs start?
Also, technically they're picking the top 6 conference champions. That doesn't mean that all P5 conference champions are getting in.
