• Stand by the phone, and hope that the Big Ten, Big 12, or ACC will take pity on my school, and offer admittance, even if it is at a reduced share of revenue (49%, 117 Votes)
• Make the best deal I can with the Mountain West, perhaps with an out to play as many Power Five games as I can arrange, keeping my independent options open (29%, 70 Votes)
• I would work on keeping the "Pac-12" together for non-revenue sports, so that my national championship caliber non-revenue teams can stay in tact, and keep pumping out national titles (22%, 54 Votes)

• Excited. CU will be out from underneath the shadows of USC, Oregon and Washington (not to mention Texas and Oklahoma), and will quickly be in position to compete for a conference title (41%, 133 Votes)
• Not that interested, to tell the truth. Nothing is going to happen until 2024, and CU has an exciting 2023 campaign with Coach Prime to play. Let's worry about 2024 after the calendar turns (37%, 121 Votes)
• Upset. It should have never come to this. Greed, mismanagement and disregard for the fans has brought an end to a pillar of college football. I'm sad CU played a role in the demise of the Pac-12 (22%, 71 Votes)

• Utah - Like Arizona State, Utah didn't want to leave the Pac-12. The Utes are two-time defending champions - of a now-defunct league. Plus, they now have to play hated rival BYU every year (39%, 87 Votes)
• Arizona State - ASU President Michael Crow fought to the end to keep the Pac-12 together, and, in the end, had to eat "crow" and go hat in hand to beg the Big 12 for an offer of membership (33%, 73 Votes)
• Oregon - The Ducks had the chance to keep the conference together. Had Oregon stayed, there would have been at least a nine-team conference. Oregon will be remembered as the school which ended the Pac (28%, 62 Votes)

• That the Big 12 will now be a Big 16, with the Four Corner schools given the chance at surviving until the next round of realignment. Glad CU jumped first, and didn't have to sweat out an invitation (46%, 114 Votes)
• That the four orphan schools - the Bay Area schools, WSU and OSU - were left out in the cold by the Oregon/Washington move. So much for loyalty. Apple Cup and Civil War should be fun this fall (33%, 82 Votes)
• That Oregon was willing to take less than a full share (how much TBD) to be the straw which broke the Pac-12's back. The Ducks had an easier path to the CFP in the Pac-12, but chose to leave (21%, 53 Votes)

• Pac-12 Commissioners Larry Scott and George Kliavkoff. Scott set the table with a decade of mismanagement, and Kliavkoff didn't do enough to keep the conference together (69%, 229 Votes)
• USC and UCLA for leaving. While not the straw that broke the camel's back, none of the other schools would have had to go looking around for a new conference (29%, 97 Votes)
• The Four Corner schools or the Oregon/Washington block. Whichever group blinks first, and votes to leave the conference, the Pac-12 sinks below nine teams, and it's time to turn out the lights (2%, 5 Votes)
