This week, I got questions about Oregon’s No. 1 ranking in the AP Poll, Oregon State’s 2025 football schedule, Paul Allen’s wishes, the WCC’s feelings about the Pac-12, Utah’s woes, Lincoln Riley, USC’s regrets, Washington State’s magical season, Boise State’s football upside, Pac-12 media negotiations, and more.

Pac-12 vs. Mountain West legal drama?

How do I handle trolls?

How would I rank the former Pac-12 members in football this season?

Will Oregon be No. 1 in the first College Football Playoff ranking?
