That would be awesome.  I also think the MWC will get a deal in the 5-6 range based on the inflation of sports properties.  The Pac in the 10-12 range.

Under current rules, I think the odds wil be either thr Big12 or ACC champ will be ranked lower than the highest G6 champ about half the time.

 

Inflation would apply if the MW were staying intact. It's not. In fact, sans Vegas, heir best properties are leaving.

In what world does their value increase ?

Calling Oregon State and Washington State “anchors” is a tired narrative. Sure, schools like UCLA and Washington bolted for bigger paydays, but let’s not pretend they represent the soul of what the PAC-12 was. OSU and WSU have been the backbone of the conference, consistently punching above their weight and proving their worth.

The nPac isn’t about clinging to the past—it’s about building something new and competitive. Schools like CSU, SDSU, and Boise State bring fresh energy and growing fanbases. The ones who left may have chased the money, but the nPac is proving that success isn’t just about the biggest paycheck—it’s about creating a conference with heart, tradition, and a drive to win. Let’s see how “top tier” those traitors are when they’re stuck in soulless conferences where they’re just another number.

Backbone of the conference?  And punching above their weight?  LOL.  Uh, no.  The "backbone" comment is highly subjective (which, I submit, you're way off base on) and Wazzou's last Pac 12 (actually, 10) championship was 2002.  OSU's?   In 2000.  That's some really strong "worth", if you ask me (a person's kids were born... and then off to college... during that "vacuous" time-frame)...   🙄

It’s optimistic to think that being “left behind” will suddenly lead to consistent CFP appearances and multiple tournament teams. Speculation about payouts and TV deals is just that—speculation. Without actual numbers or guarantees, it’s hard to believe these schools will have the resources to compete at the same level as the nPac.

CSU, SDSU, Boise State, and the rest of the nPac have moved on to bigger and better opportunities. While the remaining schools may see some improvements, it’s unlikely they’ll close the gap anytime soon. Motivation is great, but it doesn’t replace the exposure, competition, and resources that come with being part of a top-tier conference like the nPac.

Top tier?

Unlv is historically the worst football program in the nation.  Two decent seasons doesn’t erase 50 years of futility.  I can’t imagine how annoying you would be if unlv ever did something like win a conference title in the mw let alone win a big bowl game.   The good news is that now the best programs are leaving you guys should have a punchers chance at a conference title.  

2 seasons of Odom follow by Dan Mullen's will cut those yaks. This year's UNLV team will be the best we fielded like ever. Take it for what it worth. Absolutely murderous team Coach Mullen put together. They are straight assassins.

Top Tier conference? Your mother and father albeit Oregon State and Washington State are an abortions of the PAC12. Schools like UCLA, Oregon, Washington etc. couldn't get out fast enough and left their belonging behind. They dont care about what they left behind. That is your anchors, traitors.

Better than the MW anchors.

The only reason any of these Schools will get better is because of subtraction of the top properties.

Most of your inventory will be aired on weeknights.

But keep up the delusions

Will be fun watching you start the season with a loss to Sam Houston.

And if you think bringing Texas State will help you in exposure then you are hopeless as we are thought. Texas State have been around since 1890's. That is an old school. If they are able to get this far in nearly 150 year existence then they are going nowhere fast. Top tier conference my ass

They are the next UNLV. Funding, planning, facilities, Institutional commitment are all in order.

They have a good Ball Coach. Being in the PAC will improve their recruiting. Basketball is like Fresno. They have baseball which gets the Pac to five. It will also act as a bridge to Memphis/Tulane.

Don't be surprised if the Media deal goes above $12 mil. The CW and Amazon have been driving up the bidding from ESPN original offer of $8 mil.

I think the awesome scenario for the MW is this:

1) Geography 

IMG_4956.thumb.jpeg.2ecc16d5df600488d72d7a4751e74ab5.jpeg

The MW is concentrated in the southwest part of the nation.  That’s were the population centers are.  Notice the big white space in the upper left corner?  It’s very noticable.

2) Change

First the win-loss distribution will change for both the PAC and MW.  It has too.  New teams will become powerhouses.  Momentum will be created.  To think nothing will change, is to forget the rule: expect the unexpected. 
 

3) Structure

Here’s where I think will be the biggest decider of money, exposure - and that is which media partner(s), what distribution and marketing channels will be superior in 10 years time.  My bet is on the tech streamers.  


4) Luck

Boise going 11-1 has a lot to do with luck.  They make their own, for sure.  I predict the PAC will experience parity problems that plagued the old PAC, when it comes to playoff contention.  I’m not convinced that any MW team could go undefeated in conference and OOC by 2030.  Therefore, I believe the G6 participant will be ranked in the top 15-25.  That said, new leaders will emerge.  
 

If the PAC can’t fully distinguish themselves by having a top G6 team, and picks the wrong media partner, they will be the exact same as the MW by 2032.  None of the PAC or MW teams are irreplaceable, maybe except for Boise’s consistency.  Oregon State and Wazzu still have to prove they can be contenders purely with mid-major resources.  New Mexico could be the next Fresno or SDSU.  Same with any other school in these new conferences.

Punch above their weight? Can you give us a little example?

Like I have said, the football finish next season will be interesting. The drives you are talking about will be in display. In a couple of years, UTEP with their new sponsors and support will start to grow. I dont like their Coaching staff but there are more potentials than say Texas State which is like a moss grow like molasses in the forest. Your Utopian view of the crappy nPAC is what lead you guys to this spot. Reverse merger, you dumbass. It is easy. Call a truce and reverse merge the conferences.

WOSU, the traitors and the Zags will never ever, under any circumstances come back to the MW. Even in the next go around of realignment

Those horses have left the barn for a better one. The donkeys and broken down horses felt comfortable in the same shitty barn.

Nothing screams “Conference of Champions” like Texas State, two cast offs and a bunch of Mountain West teams.

UNLV Basketball, leading the way in the Big West. But, never in the MW or WAC.

You should have left for the BE conference a few years ago....would have been a better move. Just dumb after dumb moves. And you're expecting UNLV to join you?

I've read some hilarious takes during all of the conference divorce madness but referring to Beav and Coog as the "backbone" of a conference that once featured SC, UCLA, Oregon, and Washington is next level lolz. Truly gold.

Embarrassment is Syracuse won their bowl game and UNLV won their bowl game and BSU got its vagina ripped apart.

Completely different levels of competition.

One was the CFP.

The other, double AA ball

How did UNLV do against your Asstechs in the last couple of years? Do you think you will do better next year?
