Quarterback Bo Nix of the Oregon Ducks celebrates a touchdown against the Colorado Buffaloes during the first half at Autzen Stadium on September 23, 2023 in Eugene, Oregon. **Editor’s Note: Time to take the 6-0 Challenge and make your Week 6 picks against “Joe vs. the Pro and the Hero.” Joseph Goodman’s popular college football picks feature, “Joe vs. the Pro and the Hero,” is adding readers to the action this season.
Deion Sanders was heavily criticized in the offseason for flipping Colorado’s entire roster. The new-look Buffaloes then went out and upset 2022 national championship runner-up TCU 45-42 in the opening week of the season. That was just the beginning of college football’s brave new world. The game isn’t regressing, though. College football has never been more engaging. Tulane is back. Yes, you read that correctly, but that’s not even the wackiest thing of all. No.17 Duke , No.23 Kansas and No.24 Kentucky are beginning to look like football schools.A combination of arrogance, greed and terrible leadership allowed the Pac-12 to be dismantled before the beginning of what now looks like a defiant memorial to what could have been.
The GameDay crew can’t avoid the awkward truth, though, which is the rise of the Pac-12 on the eve of its collapse. It’s the biggest story in college football. Some talking points: — The top three contenders for the Heisman Trophy halfway through the season are USC quarterback Caleb Williams, Washington quarterback Michael Penix, Jr., and Oregon quarterback Bo Nix.Oregon, Washington, USC and UCLA are heading to the Big Ten in 2024 while Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Arizona State are leaving for the Big 12. The odd couple out — or still in — are Oregon State and Washington State.
In the end, the schools that left the Pac-12 did what was best for themselves. There is a touch of sadness to see the Pac-12 go, but observers of college football learned an important lesson. For people who pay the bills, conferences are more about TV time slots and time zones than regional rivalries.
