2026 PAC 12 (but really only 8) home and home?

Internet blowing up with rumors of NDSU receiving an invite to join MWC for football only starting this fall. That would be wild.

I still don’t see why the PAC wouldn’t want them and offer them.

Sacramento State would be a solid addition. It's a big school, lots of money and in an area that would be great for recruiting. I would choose them over North Dakota State any day.

Plus solidifies a base in the bay area for recruiting and TV. Would be great to have that market basically locked down with Sac State, SJSU, and UCD (who I imagine elevates their football program in due time)

I would be fine with Sac State as another addition. I believe the NDSU addition, is a huge win for the MWC in the world of realignment. They are almost as much of a "darling" as Donkie State was when they entered the MWC. Montana & Montana State...come on down!

You're probably right but my concern is we will never get from under the ugly rock called bohl

Let's hope that Npac isn't doing a flanking and sways NDSU to them. If I was the PAC I would be all over NDSU .

The MWC already issued a release welcoming NDSU to the conference: https://themw.com/news/2026/02/09/mountain-west-adds-north-dakota-state-as-a-football-only-member/

Because conference bylaws require a 5 year Grant-of-Rights as a condition to being in the conference for football, I'd say that is entirely off the table now for the PAC to poach NDSU (at least until the next media deal).

I would bet that Oregon State (mostly) and Washington State are staunchly against NDSU being in the PAC. They see it very much beneath the "PAC brand" to allow an FCS school into the conference.

The ego of Oregon State is going to be a major problem for the PAC's long-term survival.
 
Listening to the butt wad mouthpiece for the pee12 explaining the pee12 schedule and as much as he tried to downplay the “flex” move since they only have 7 conference games he couldn’t sugar coat the main factor will be to create matchups to either help sell a late season game for TV or more specifically - almost guarantee a team with a good record a win with a chance at a possible playoff spot.

Went on to badmouth the MWC stating AFA and UNLV are distraught with the media deal being very jealous of the pee12. Claims that UNLV and AFA are likely to leave the MWC by July 1, 2026 and that is the reason why NDSU was added to thwart the demise of the MWC.

When asked about the pee12 getting to 9 football teams for 8 conference games he said that the pee12 needs to go shopping and will likely be looking for a football only member. He quickly deviated from answering the question and focused on basketball championship games.

He claims the pee12 will be over $7 million in media distribution numbers and that UNLV will be the team to make the move.
