The cancellation of the Washington/Ohio St. series is interesting timing.

Their TV deadline is coming up soon & I think the B1G has just been waiting for the Big 12 to take the 4 corners & deliver the kill shot. After that Oregon/Washington & whoever else will agree to smaller payouts for our current deal

The Big 10 is probably still waiting on Notre Dame

The Big Ten wants their foot print to cover the entire country. Washington and Oregon make a lot of sense, but they are also going to want to dip their toe in the southeast. Clemson, Georgia Tech and maybe Florida St all make a ton of sense.

I think Notre Dame made their nut with their new tv deal. I won’t be surprised if USC & UCLA don’t want to be left out on an island playing nothing but Midwest teams

It's all about $$$
If Washington and Oregon made sense financially then they would already be in the Big 10
If you add Notre Dame, then you can add Washington, Oregon, Stanford, etc.

Interesting premise advocated by Josh at the end of the video: private ownership of the PAC12 inventory for marketing and branding purposes. If the conference schools are desperate enough to seek that kind of funding to remain competitive, its probably there for the taking. Imagine rebranding your conference from the PAC12 to the Tesla12 or the Amazon12, etc.
