Doesn't do anything for football, but it's movement, and shows that at least someone is still working on something.

They seem like the most logical fit. Good, trending football team. Las Vegas market w/ sponsorships and media opportunites.

Curious what the price is to make them say "yes..."

It's buried among other things in here, likely because it's unsurprising.

Our next opponent two weeks from today is absolutely getting hammered by UNLV as they are getting shutout 31-0 all UNLV.

Fresno has absolutely no offense. This is no doubt their worst performance in a decade.

So much for the backup QB at UNLV getting his first start. They're not missing a heartbeat.

Purdue fired offensive coordinator Graham Harrell on Sunday as the team has struggled to score points against FBS competition.

Never heard of this guy and have no idea whether or not he knows what he's talking about.

We are now in direct competition with the MW to find team 8. Who's it going to be? OSU is the one that wanted 8 teams. How about Portland State?

You all still worshipping Gloria as she "swung for the fences"?

How's that 2025 schedule coming along?

Opine, or just throw out a bunch of one liner insults. I don't give a F. Tersa and the Pac totally F-ed this up. And spent a shit ton of our money along the way. Our pathetic lawsuit will get laughed out of court. The 5 traitors are probably blowing up Gloria's and their attorney's phones begging to come back home. Oh but I'm stupid and idiotic and all is well. Enjoy. I'm going to go hang with someone smarter than many of you. My dog.

So, a casino executive offered up $100k to keep the UNLV QB there and UNLV said, "Nope, we won't be working with that f#cker again" or words to that effect.

The thing is, the guy had 318 yards passing through three games. UNLV isn't playing well because of him. If our starting QB was averaging 106 yards per game, we'd be losing our flipping minds no matter what our record was. I don't blame UNLV for telling the guy to take a hike.

I'm not getting that far ahead, but if we did pull out an 11-1 season, I'd be curious of where we are ranked at the end of the year. Not CFP bound, but we might be a decent bowl game with the historical tie-ins still at play.

They have dropped ROOT sports as their television sponsor and are going with KONG Seattle and Prime
For you cord cutters out there, how the hell can you watch the games?

My jaw dropped several times. F*ck.

I know I’m getting old but, why don’t footballers have knee pads in their pants anymore?

Against a mobile QB

Just decided to go. If anyone has extras they’re stuck with. Let me know!

PS: Yes, I’m aware that GameTime, StubHub, etc exist

Boise State and UNLV look to have 2 of the best programs out West this year. Oregon is #1, but after that, who else? Arizona, Utah, and BYU? Boise can hang with any of them.

I’ve always felt that the top of the MWC was as good as most teams in the P12. This is why I like that we skimmed their top-5 programs. We didn’t need the bottom half.

the donkeys are -6.5? Apparently it was bigger as I heard the radio guys say yesterday the people were betting the line down.

What am I missing?

My heart says we stomp, my head says its within a field goal.

Maybe its because we in recent history we play like shit vs Boise?

Mountain West is looking for teams I guess

Not a happy night

Northern Illinois "not offered yet".

Texas State gets offer to join MWC, sources say

Texas State officials have received a verbal offer to join the Mountain West, sources said, and a decision is expected in the coming days.

Got my WSU Alumni Assoc. e-mail newsletter, actually impressed by all the watch parties listed. Even one in YakiVegas, pretty close to where I live. I could almost walk there. If there is any interest on the Board, I can copy and paste the (long) list from my e-mail.

Sacramento State? I choose not to opine, other than 30,000 would be a more suitable stadium size. Link below.

Huge game for Cougs

Janikowski’s confidence is back and Cougs win a wild one -

38-34

From yesterday, and a quote I agree with...

Still, the optics aren’t great. One retired long-time conference commissioner texted me a note on Thursday morning with advice for the Pac-12’s Teresa Gould: “Commissioner 101 — don’t extend a membership invite unless you are guaranteed the answer is ‘yes.’”

Dickert has been very public in holding up his hand and saying that the bad coaching calls in the last couple weeks are on him. That said, I'm just kind of curious if he's letting Arbuckle make the calls or if he is really that directly involved. To some degree, it doesn't matter, but I think a lot of what we've seen on some of our sketchy play calling is really more Arbuckle than Dickert. I will say that the fake field goal, skipped field goals and some of the other fourth down conversions is definitely something that Dickert has the responsibility for.

Regardless, it's good for Dickert to let Arbuckle figure things out without it being a spectacle focusing on a relatively young guy figuring out his way. I would like the learning to focus on getting away from throwing for 8 yards when we need to gain 10 or other instances where routes aren't enough to get us first downs.
