IMHO it's easier to overcome the religious bigotries of PAC 12 for inclusion

than it would be to overcome the AAU obstacle in the BIG10. The academics obstacle with the Big10 is very black and white. I really think that BYU would get invited to the PAC12 long before they were invited to the BIG10.

B1G wants to expand (apparently). B12 wants to expand (apparently).

BYU will never go to the Big Ten

Big 10 wants its member in the AAU. All but one are...

You have a point. But "Big 10" is a group with competing interests.

Until the Big10 acts against that standing rule assume it is still in place.

You think the PAC 12 is academically snobby? Not like the Big 10

I don't think the P12 is snobby. Should I?

I don't think the BIG 10 has the religious bigots the PAC12 has.

After the Pac-12 let you in, any claim to academic superiority died

I don't think anyone thinks the Pac is academically snobby. They do have schools

All of whom outperform BYU by a country mile

Now that is "lol." There is no way you are that stupid to actually believe that.

I thought that about the P12 before their last 2 invites.

Yes it is impossible. The B1G is not vying for BYU.

This. More specifically it's impossible because the SEC is on the cusp

More like B1G takes OU/KU and UT goes to PAC

Sure, that's possible.

BYU still has the whole "academic probation" thing going for it

My bad, I thought you said we were currently on probation

Extra Biscuits

I think it was actually my bad, as I did call it "probation"

LSU and Illinois are on "The List."

Still might constitute ammunition though. Those teams have been P5 for a while

The Big Ten is the mirror image of the Pac 12

Only they are great academically top to bottom.
