Conference realignment rumors are running rampant throughout college football once again. This time, the rumors have to do with the Pac-12 as a whole.

Action Network’s Brett McMurphy joined “The Paul Finebaum Show” to talk about how college football used to have the Big East back in the day. That conference has since been disbanded after the ACC took the majority of its teams.

McMurphy thinks the same thing will happen to the Pac-12 after the B1G and Big 12 are done with it.

“The same thing I think, unfortunately, is going to happen with the Pac-12,” said McMurphy. “They’re going to lose 4 schools to the Big Ten, and then I think 4 schools out of the Pac-12 — the Arizona schools, Utah and Colorado — take a lifeline to go to the Big 12, and then there’s no more Pac-12, and then we’ll be left with 4 power conferences.”

John Kurtz of KC Sports Network shared video of McMurphy’s appearance.

The end of the Pac-12 may be coming if what he says comes true. Only time will tell.
