"Holmoe points out that BYU's presence would give the conference teams in three time zones, giving television networks a lot more options for telecasts.
BYU could give the Big 12 a fourth window on Saturdays — 9 p.m. Central; 8 p.m. in Utah — which should give the conference more weight and flexibility in its TV negotiations."
I called it out a few months ago as I know a few others have. But national media has largely missed this point.
