The Pac-12 and conference commissioner George Kliavkoff have been working for weeks to figure out what the conference's next move will be to remain relevant and competitive in the college football landscape. To capture the nation's attention, we've seen in past years disruptors enter the marketplace in a variety of industries. The Pac-12 needs to make a disruptive move to remain relevant on the national scale and to maintain respect of the college football fanbase.
On today's episode of Locked On Pac-12, Spencer McLaughlin examines a potential next move for the Pac-12 now that the Big 12 has cut off their conversations. Commissioner George Kliavkoff's next phone call should be to the ACC in an attempt to form a true "super conference" in college football--one that would span from the west coast all the way to the eastern seaboard.
It would be an aggressive move that bucks conventional wisdom about how college football conferences are formed--but it's worth taking a shot. A conference who's top football brands include Clemson, Miami, Florida State, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and others would be comparable (perhaps stronger) than the new Big 12. It would be a unique partnership that stands out in the CFP landscape, which is exactly what the Pac-12 needs.
