Social media destroys chaotic Pac-12 trophy presentation after Oregon beat USC
By Adam Spencer
Published:
The Oregon Ducks upset undefeated USC on Saturday night to claim their second-straight Pac-12 title.
That was notable because, well, Oregon wasn’t even supposed to be playing in the game. The Ducks were tapped to fill in for Washington after the Huskies had to back out of the game due to COVID-19 issues.
That messy situation summed up the Pac-12 season perfectly, as did the chaotic trophy presentation afterwards. As you can see below, the Ducks got a bit wild, and, in true live TV fashion, we could hear everything that was said.
Just look at this utter debacle, presided over by Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott:

Fans flocked to Twitter in the aftermath of the presentation to call out the Pac-12 for seemingly having no clue how to handle things:
The PAC-12 trophy presentation summed up their entire season. What a mess.

To say this Pac-12 Championship trophy presentation is the hottest mess would be an insult to hot messes everywhere.

That PAC-12 trophy presentation might’ve been the worst postgame production I’ve ever seen.
No one knew what the hell was happening, technical difficulties everywhere, and there was ZERO censoring so you could hear everything the players were saying.
THE PAC-12 IS A JOKE ??

I thought the Pac-12 Championship Game would be the biggest shit show of the night for football, but it turns out the trophy presentation was worse. Multiple players dropping n-bombs in every other word on live television. ? Also acting like they won a national championship.

What else did we expect from the Pac-12?
