Good article about the surprising start this year for the PAC 12.
Everything seems to be going right. 8 ranked teams, TV ratings way up with interesting inter-conference games coming up. Prime Time goes to Oregon in a couple of weeks followed by USC at Colorado the next week in a battle of likely Heisman candidates, etc. Yet the conference is dying! Would the money have been there if this season had happened a few years back?

Finally thriving in its dying season, was Pac-12's demise simply bad timing?
The conference's success this season makes one wonder: If the 2023 season occurred in, say, 2019 or 2020 or 2021, would any of this realignment have happened?
