Worst Case Scenario for SDSU After the Carnage


OK, things are getting a little crazy. There's a lot of speculation and misinformation sand the unknown.

The best case scenario would be: PAC 10/16.

However, just so we have a baseline, what would be the worst case scenario?

Please respond. Put your tongue in cheek if you like.

My worst case: we get left out of Big12/MWC reshuffle and get bounced to a watered down WAC (no Boise St.). SDSU then becomes the big fish in the Wacky pond.

However, it's a rocky road back to the WAC. Some members are disgusted that we worship the waves at SDSU.

With no BCS ties, the WAC will play the MAC in the revived California Bowl in Fullerton.

We renew rivalry with Fresno State. Even though they beat us sometime, we remind them that live in Fresno.

The point is SDSU would still be in the academics and athletic business.

Go Aztecs!

Pac 16 a Reality?

Orangeblood.com reports Texas, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Oklahoma, OSU and Colorado to Pac (16).

This is about as good as it gets for the Pac 1o. They don't have to take Baylor and get the Denver TV market with the Buffs. They still get Texas (the state and the U. in Austin) and the other two big schools in the state.

Oklahoma has had a little success, too. With OSU you get a sugar daddy (T-boon Pickens) to rival Oregon's Phil Knight.

This will a boon for Texas schools to tap into California recruiting, and vice versa.

My guess is ASU and U of A foes with newbies to form East Division. Old Pac fans will like this as the original 8 are in the West division. For the far left Pac-ers, good news in football will be to face east champ ONLY in a championship game.

Venues for a championship game: Jerry Jones Palace, U. of Phoenix Stadium or new 49er park (check out the drawings!).

Or, perhaps, this could kick start a new L.A. stadium to house NFL team(s), Super Bowl(s), bowl game (hopefully this news means we're heading to a playoff), etc. That's more wish than reality.

Then again, rumor has it there might not even be a Pac 16 playoff. If that's the case, why even be a conference of 16?!
