    Josh Rosen with a great response when asked why he is choosing to play in in his bowl game when other players are choosing to sit out to prepare for the draft.

    PAC 12 not representing well so far. 1-3, with losses to the MWC, B1G, and Big 12.

    Hilarious. I hope Utah is the only pac12 team that wins.

    I enjoyed the rich rod cam last night, especially after Purdue pulled off the great trick play. Also, the Purdue game winning touchdown was amazing.

    I share your schadenfreude to an extent, but do we really want our conference to be a laughingstock?

    It doesn't matter. Some conference flops in bowls every year, and nobody remembers for more than a week. People do remember the playoffs, and we aren't there. With the playoffs, the bowls are less meaningful than ever. Say the pac-12 had gone 8-2 in bowls - would anyone have noticed or cared? No - what they would remember is that we missed the playoff.

    So...enjoy your shadenfreude. Go Wolfpack, Nittany Lions, and Buckeyes!

    Rooting for the conference to impress was so MWC.

    Ok. I'm on board with this.

    And it appears that capitalization matters when it comes to emojis.

    luv this conference, but seeing Arizona, Oregon and UCLA lose does have its perks

    OK. You’ve convinced me. (Even though AJ agrees with you.)

    I completely agree. I am cheering for the Huskies to seal Penn State's first-ever three bowl game losing streak. They deserve a 50-year bowl ban.

    Just one more game! I think uw will win, but a psu win would be hilarious.

    The rest of college football now knows what we know. PAC 12 officials are terrible: https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nca...MvC?li=BBnb7Kz

    Now if someone will just find out why they’re making tons of money for being terrible.

    Honestly, collegiate football and basketball officials are very well paid, and at least in the Pac-12 they seem to rarely be held accountable for anything.

    Officials and weather forecasters...two jobs where being correct is optional.

    PSU wins! Post gifs of Utah being the only Pac-12 winner.

    So the PAC-12 has 8 bowl losses this year. That is the worst record in the history of CFB.

    Does anybody remember (or care) who previously held the record?

    The previous record for total losses was set last year by the Big 10, who went 3-7. The B1G is 7-0 this year, and if Michigan beats SCar, they will be 8-0.

    In two weeks, nobody will even remember the record this year.

    I can think of a certain G-5 wanna be fan base who will.
