Could the plan for 2025 involve The CW and ACC?

Texas Tech will play at Washington State on Saturday in a football game that will air on FOX. The Red Raiders were originally contracted to play at Oregon.

Oregon State will go to San Diego State, a trip that WSU was supposed to make. And Boise State dropped its plans, moved up a week, and will be at Autzen Stadium to play the Ducks.

There isn’t a better example of scheduling flexibility than the game of musical chairs being played in the Pacific Northwest this Saturday. It has me thinking about how creative the Pac-12 could get with the football plan in 2025.
