Pac-12The Pac-12 is still working to finalize their media deal that will begin for the 2024-25 athletics season as the last conference yet to agree to a media deal.

That might be something down the line they wish to avoid, which could influence the length of the media deal.

On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I look at a potential lesson for the Pac-12 to have learned down the line.

Oregon State Football came in at No. 24 in ESPN’s FPI rankings—last updated on April 17th—putting them in a position they have seldom been in since the Pac-12 began.

The consensus top two additions for the Pac-12 are San Diego State. How do they stack up?

The Aztecs are 7-4 against Pac-12 football schools since 2016, and SMU has an NIL collective as well-funded as any remaining school in the Pac after the departure of USC and UCLA.

Why does another school that has given Pac-12 schools trouble, Fresno State, not get major consideration right now?

I lay out why—and why if he had his way, Fresno State would be added in addition to Boise State amidst a 4-school expansion.
