Certainly seems like the Beavers want their home game. Not willing to only play at Oregon. It is an interesting situation. If they cut Oregon altogether and only play the new PAC 12 games and become the big fish in a smaller pool so to speak, they look better nationally and may even rank high enough to get into the playoffs.
they'd have to be the big fish in the entire G6 landscape, not just the Pac-12 meaning they'd not only have to be better than Boise St, WSU, San Diego St. etc, they'd have to be better than Navy, Memphis, Tulane, Temple, South Florida, UConn, Bowling Green, UNLV, Wyoming. In other words they'd have to be obviously better than 61 other G6 teams because it's nearly certain there will only be one G6 team in the playoffs. And if the SEC and Big-10 have their way, G6 may lose their automatic slot
