Boise State and Oregon locked at 27 apiece. Ashton Jeanty’s second TD run of the game ties it up with 12 minutes to go. We’re heading towards a classic finish.

Make it 34-34. Oregon’s second special teams house call ties us back up. Boise State to get the ball back with 10 minutes flat remaining.

#BoiseState comes up a hair short against Oregon, losing 37-34 on a last second FG. Ashton Jeanty was transcendent, but they couldn’t overcome the Ducks two kick return TDs.

Massive news here. #BoiseState, #SanDiegoState, #FresnoState, and #ColoradoState appear to at least be having discussions about joining the rebuilt PAC 12, effective 2026. No statements from the schools mentioned yet. Will provide any additional info I can find ASAP

Pete Thamel reports that the plan has momentum behind it, and the expectation is that the four tabbed #MountainWest schools will make statements within the next few days, if they are going to join the new PAC 12, that is.

I've talked with multiple coaches/staff at Boise State in the last 30 minutes who were surprised and not aware of the Yahoo Sports report. They didn't have any knowledge. The group of people in the know on this stuff is apparently very small.

OH MY GOD ITS OFFICIAL #BoiseState, #ColoradoState, #FresnoState, and #SanDiegoState are leaving the #MountainWest for what will become the PAC 12 (2 more teams are needed to reach official conference status) A shocking turn of events, and a massive blow to the future of the MW

My top expansion candidates for the #MountainWest, off the top of my head: - North Dakota State / South Dakota State - New Mexico State - UTEP / Sam Houston State / Texas State - (if $111M is used for expansion) UTSA, North Texas, Rice - Idaho / Montana / Montana State
