The media loves SC, and them being relevant would automatically give the Pac-12 more legitimacy. For Oregon, you could actually afford to drop a game during the season because beating a top 5-10 SC team in the conference champ game would immediately launch you into the CFP. As it stands we have to be perfect, which is extremely hard even with an elite team.

If it means losing to them every once in a while but the conference sending a team to the CFP every year then it’s worth it.

On the flip side, Oklahoma and Clemson just roll through their conference each year and get CFP bids annually. I don't think we need a competitor

Oklahoma about to be on the outside looking in this year because their conference is crap and they don't play anybody.

Don’t see SC being any different the rest of the year. MC already gets some of the best SoCal talent to UO. Why deal with unreal expectations every year?

Regarding MC, I can potentially see the Miami (FL) job opening after this season or next. They've started the regular season ranked high and been embarrassed twice by Alabama and Michigan State. I'm not sure if he'd leave or not? He'd be at the peak of the rebuilding process here and would have to start all over there.

I don't think there is a high chance Mario considers leaving UO unless its for the Alabama HC job.

Didn’t Saban recently sign an extension that has him at Bama til he is 120? If healthy, he is probably there another 4-5 years unless he gets bored of winning…maybe longer.
