    Gee, you think one of these other conferences might want Nike... err, Oregon, at some point soon?

    I have a feeling the only reason it wasn't part of the USC/UCLA deal is, somebody thinks teams should be added in pairs (it makes basketball scheduling much easier - of course, that assumes that the "big money" football and men's basketball conferences (
    and yes, I do separate the men's and women's basketball conferences - women's basketball should be regionalized the way, say, baseball should be) are the same), and who do you take along with Oregon? Washington? Stanford?

    Speaking of USC and UCLA, I wonder how USC is going to handle its current rivalries; it can't play Notre Dame, Stanford, and Cal every year like it does now, as those would be its three non-conference opponents every year.

    USC will play Notre Dinero ($1) OOC and fucla in-confererence every year. If UND joins the B1G, then I bet Stanford joins with them (UND and the Furd is a decent rivalry), and you have a 4-team pod that plays each other every year.

    Assuming UND doesn't join the B1G, then the other two OOC games will be probably be rotated every year with Kal/Furd and some home G5 patsy. Just spitballing about the other two OOC games (outside of UND) though.
