Geographic, frick no. Culturally, surprisingly yes. Migrating New Englanders aside, PAC and B1G teams play each other before other conferences (drop obvious cross state rivalries)

This is true.


The pac schools have the same ball-shrinkage issues that the big10 has.

They wanted desperately to avoid:
-Aconference champ game
- A game that meant more than the rose bowl
-A playoff.


Their elitism is focused on how to slow the whole thing down so they can have a chance to leap onto the merry go round without getting flung off.

They are too proud of their blue bloods when the southern blue bloods forced the change that you see today.
