There’s perhaps no school watching these talks more closely—and nervously—than Oregon State.
On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I am joined by Carter Bahns of BeaverBlitz.com.
We lay out the case for why it’s so crucial that Oregon State be able to remain in the Pac-12 now and in the future.
If the Pac-12 were to get submarined by the Big Ten down the line, Oregon State’s most likely potential options would be the Big 12 or the Mountain West—and a Power 5 offer might be optimistic.
For now, however, the Beavs are in the Pac-12 along with everyone else, so Carter also gives an update from Spring Practice in Corvallis.
