Narrator: The Pac 8 teams are facing a major challenge in the upcoming football season. Ohio State University (OSU) has been invited to join the conference, and many of the Pac 8 teams are not happy about it. Scene opens with a meeting of Pac 8 coaches and athletic directors. Coach A: I don't think it's fair that OSU gets to join our conference. They have a huge advantage over us with their resources and recruiting. AD A: I agree. We need to find a way to kick them out before they even get here. Coach B: But how do we do that? They've already been invited. AD B: We could try to pressure them into withdrawing their acceptance. Coach C: Or we could try to dig up some dirt on them and report it to the NCAA. AD C: That's risky. We don't want to damage our own reputations by playing dirty. Coach D: Maybe we could challenge them to a series of non-conference games and beat them convincingly. That would show everyone that we don't need them in our conference. AD D: I like that idea. We could schedule a game with them and advertise it as a Pac 8 vs. Big Ten matchup. Coach E: And we could make a big deal of the fact that we're playing them on our home turf. AD E: Yes, we could make it a huge event and really promote it. Coach F: And if we win, we could use that as leverage to pressure them into withdrawing from the conference. AD F: It's a long shot, but it's worth a try. Coach G: Alright, let's get to work on organizing this game. We've got a lot of planning to do. Narrator: The Pac 8 teams went to work organizing the game, and it turned out to be a huge success. They filled the stadium to capacity, and their team won convincingly. After the game, the Pac 8 teams used their leverage to pressure OSU to withdraw from the conference. And it worked. With OSU out of the picture, the Pac 8 teams were able to continue on with their conference without any interference from outside institutions. And they all lived happily ever after.
