Some recent stories paint a very bleak picture about the future of the Pac-12 Conference amid college conference realignment and expansion.
Brett McMurphy said on the Paul Finebaum Show: "It wasn't too long ago we had the six [automatic qualifying] conferences. The so-called power conferences back then. The Big East was one of those six and what happened, they got raided by the ACC and now we're left at the Power Five. The same thing I think unfortunately is going to happen with the Pac-12. They're going to lose four schools to the Big Ten.
He wrote:"100 percent. In that scenario, a total of six schools would be headed to the Big Ten, and the Four Corners would undoubtedly leave for the Big 12. Sure, the conference could reform with Oregon State, Washington State and a slew of Mountain West schools, but it would be the Pac-12 in name only."
