Oregon State, Washington State file complaint against Pac-12 Edit: Court grants injunction.

Yeah, the Dawgs are one of the better teams in the country. Oregon, USC and Utah are all damn good too.

Things were improving. Not long ago, we witnessed the Crapple Cup and the Lane Kiffin era at USC. Utah was a good addition, while Colorado sucked. Now, UW, Oregon, Utah, USC, and UCLA are all good (and Colorado is getting good?). All too little, too late...

Meh. I'm glad the Dawgs left. Will be fun to play some different teams, and to join a conference w/out their heads in their a**es.
Go Dawgs. 24/7 365

The bummer for UW is they're going from a conference that they had a chance of winning to a conference they'll never have a chance of winning.

Washington has historically proven they can beat the best of the Big teams.

Don't misplace the blame on the teams that left, place it at the source - the Pac-12 commissioners - Larry Scott and George Kliavkoff. If Ore St and WSU want to tie themselves to a sinking ship, it's their choice but probably not a smart idea.

Well they are smart about putting a restraining order on the rest the teams wanting to leave, just seen a story where many wanted to use PAC 12 assets to facilitate their transfers to their new conferences.

Even a non-power Pac-12 with no automatic bid is a more valuable brand than the Mountain West. The desire of the traitorous 10 to dissolve the conference should make that obvious.

Coug fans do love playing the victim, so there is that.

I owe a slight apology to UW and Oregon. Both acknowledged in writing the day they announced they would join the B1G that they knew they would have no decision making going forward in the Pac-12. As such, this news only bolsters WSU and Oregon State's case to remain the only voting conference members.

Report: Court docs show UW, Oregon expected removal from key Pac-12 talks

Officials from Washington and Oregon acknowledged in writing they would be excluded from decisions related to the Pac-12's future, according to a report.

Doesn't change the fact that I think both will regret going to the B1G.

Regardless of what wsu and OSU fans want to believe. UO/UW had no path forward other than going to the big 10, if they wanted to stay relevant. Scott, George K and SC made sure if that.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Not at all. Getting out of the Pac-12 was the smart move and will prove to be the smart move.
Pac-12 was and is an absolute joke. Love the move to the Big.

Oregon State and Washington State should just get a room already.
