This is the issue here with the move.
Texas Ex's vs t shirt fan

Nevertheless there are more positive then negatives
1) PAC 12 owns its own network. The payout is not determined by ESPN or FOX
2) The growth of the SunBelt to the decline in the Rust Belt
3) Reaearch money in future industries
4) California vs Texas
5) The change in Texas' identity. Will Texas be forever linked to the South or will Texas be considered a Western state. I grew up in west Texas and lived in south Texas and found my lifestyle from where I grew up and lived to be more in common with the Western states than the Southern states.

The pacific states are very rural and like Texas once you get outside of th huge cities look and act very much like Texas and Oklahoma.

There are six PAC 12 Networks, grouped by state. (Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, Arizona, and Utah) The networks are broadcast and distributed by Fox, and then each region gets their own cut.

If a game is being broadcast on PAC 12 Arizona at the same time as a game on PAC 12 Oregon, for example, here in Washington we get the one for PAC 12 Oregon.

They would have to redo their entire contract with Fox in order to accommodate both you and Oklahoma, either making it one central network or adding PAC 12 Oklahoma and PAC 12 Texas...which Fox Sports SW would have a HUGE problem with. DirecTV already refuses to carry PAC 12 Networks because they don't want to pay for six different networks. What do you think they will do with 8?
