Summary
The conference realignment collision course continues to rampage through the college sports world, as the Pac 12 is on the verge of extinction due to the exits of Colorado, Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, Washington and Oregon in recent weeks. To get the opinions of the fan bases being affected, we bring in Oregon Football legend Geoff Schwartz for a first hand take. Geoff takes us through what this means for Ducks fans, and futher fans of college sports as a whole. After, Mark and TJ talk Rutgers (don't worry, this time it's actually something worth talking about), the Orioles incompetent management. and the HBO show "Winning Time" - which Mark auditioned for - coming back for a second season. Geoff Schwartz was a 3 year starter at the University of Oregon, and an 8 year NFL offenisve lineman, spending time with the Panthers, Vikings, Chiefs, Giants and Lions. He now covers the Pac 12 and NFL on SIRIUSXM Radio, and is a part of the Fox Sports NFL Coverage team. Schwartz holds the Pac-10 record for rushing by a right tackle, at three yards.

| 0:08.3 | On today's episode of the Mark Titus show, the Pac-12, as, as first reported on the |
| 0:13.4 | Mark Titus show, the Pac-12 is in fact dead. |
| 0:16.9 | And I would say the big 12 is holding the knife. |
| 0:20.0 | It is not at the big tense fault. |
| 0:21.4 | The big 10 graciously came out many times over the course of the last few days saying, |
| 0:26.9 | we do not want to kill the Pac-12. |
| 0:28.3 | That is not our intent. |
