First thing Oregon State, Oregon and the PAC-12 need to do . . . Stop being politically correct and calling the Civil War the ‘rivalry game’. Pac-12 is just as guilty of breaking up traditions as USC and UCLA. This may seem small and inconsequential but it is just one more thing that dilutes the brand. This is FOOTBALL! It reminds me of George Carlin’s routine comparing Football to Baseball. In football you have “sudden death” . . . I’m Baseball you have “extra innings”. Yes, because we all know USC and UCLA are leaving due to all the "wokeness" in Oregon. Yes, like I said, this is one small thing. If the PAC-12 was focusing on Football and building it’s brand and image instead of following PC Woke culture and shutting down football just to appease the Covid Police, maybe the PAC-12 wouldn’t look so weak. It’s very noble to focus on sports like Women’s Soccer, Baseball and Volleyball but Football drives the bus. Instead of being business oriented, the PAC-12 just wants to look progressive and hip.

We skip UCLA. So we probably have played our final game against them. If that's the case, we KTA in the final meeting, 48-31 at the Rose Bowl. UCLA in 2023 is in Corvallis but...? Haven't seen a 2023 schedule. Not sure if they are back on the rotation.

Having fewer dead people from Covid than the Confederacy is a good thing. Or at least I thought it was.

Having fewer dead people from Covid than the Confederacy is a good thing. Or at least I thought it was. Utah's COVID-19 death rate is third-lowest in the country, lower than every other state in the Pac-12. Minnesota and Nebraska (Big Ten country!) have lower death rates than California. Playing football in 2020 had absolutely nothing to do with anything, but we played only seven games, over UCLA's and USC's (in particular) very loud objections. The original revenue sharing in the Pac-12 deal over USC's objections. Not getting Oklahoma and Texas into the conference over USC's objections. Not letting any team play more than seven regular season games in 2020, because Stanford royally screwed the pooch and was taking their sweet time about it, over USC's objections. Eventually, the camel's back breaks.......... USC gets it. They are making moves, doing what is right for them. Good on 'em. Sucks for us.

Yep, merge with the Big 12 immediately and call it THE BIG 20! Screw those little 12-16 team conferences.

Yes, especially after the slaughtering of thousands upon thousands of fans from the southern schools who played before capacity filled stadiums. 🙄[/quote] Please produce you facts. You have no clue how many people died from being exposed there. I just recovered from COVID. It was no joke and I was vaxxed.

If we have out-of-conference games with Oregon and Washington it will be just fine. Eventually there will be one super conference of 20 teams so we might as well right size our program now. Washington and Oregon will join us when the next TV contract is negotiated.

She said she was turned off by your ripe banana. She did not find it appealing.
