This could pave the way for San Diego State to join the conference, but don't bet on it
During the souped-up muscle car race on the Modern Collegiate Athletics Speedway, the Pac-12 had lost horsepower and got itself lapped.I’m not going to say I’m shockproof, for me it was nothing more than a mild surprise when USC and UCLA turned in their letterman’s jackets to leave a conference on fumes and four flats for the numerically challenged but rich, tricked-up Big Ten.
This, really, is no bigger deal than that. Except the Pac-12 is losing the two major football schools in the nation’s second-largest market. So, don’t touch that dial. The dominoes are lined up from Southern California to Piscataway, N.J., home of Big Ten footwipe Rutgers.

Now, where does this leave San Diego State, one of the three Division I football schools in Southern California? They were talking about joining the Pac-8 when I was going there and Don Coryell was boat-racing everything in his regatta, then the Pac-10, then the Pac-12. USC and UCLA recruit here. They didn’t want the Aztecs on their lake.
