You might want to check the research rankings, as every one

Oh yeah... that's right... I forgot Utah takes 80%

Yep, they are Morons

Not to get political, but

CALDS

Liberals seem to especially dislike mormons.

Melkor

They aren't the ones releasing "Godmakers" type BS

CALDS

9/5/11 8:43pm

They hate us for religious reasons...

Melkor

Any "Huchabee" type references?

They just booked the best TV deal of any conference.

VirginiaUte

9/5/11 8:38pm

I'm sure Utah was integral to that

CALDS

9/5/11 8:40pm

Obviously, or else they wouldn't have added Utah.

VirginiaUte

9/5/11 8:41pm

I would argue that "Team 12" was integral.

benny1982

I would argue that if there was a much better available

VirginiaUte

9/5/11 8:45pm

How is Utah objectively better than BYU?

CALDS

9/5/11 8:48pm

That is true. Utah just happened to be the best available

benny1982

There WAS a better option available...they didn't take it...

There is no real proof of this besides what random people

VirginiaUte

I don't think it necessarily HAS to be religious bigotry,

benny1982

Fair enough...bottom line is that none of us know why

VirginiaUte

9/5/11 9:06pm

My personal opinion is that BYU wouldn't make them

They got the BYU market when they picked Utah anyway

LDTemplar

Adding Utah not a business decision.

9/6/11 9:07am

So the PAC12 lost money by adding Utah. That makes no sense

VirginiaUte

9/6/11 9:20am

It wasn't about the money

If they are so dumb

fleaman

9/5/11 8:41pm

Dumb enough to invite the Yewts and Buffs just so they could

John Doe

9/5/11 8:47pm

Yet now they have the most stable conference in the country.

VirginiaUte

9/5/11 8:54pm

They are no more stable than the Big ten or SEC

improv

9/5/11 8:59pm

And if OK, et al., do go to the PAC, they will be kicking

John Doe

9/5/11 9:05pm

LOL. You're being pretty dramatic.

VirginiaUte

No drama - just truth

Having Utah and Col in makes sense

9/5/11 9:26pm

So BYU would have fit perfectly

justme77

9/5/11 9:31pm

Let's revisit records when the season is over

9/5/11 9:34pm

Oh, BYU will have a better record than Utah no doubt

justme77

Yeah because all LDS are BYU fans

Ideology in this case is bigotry...
