what have you got? You're in a conference where the other teams are on the other side of the country and they're all mediocre programs worse than the MWC. Good call ... let's join.

Looking at AAC

The problem with your thinking is that you think winning an AAC championship means some thing, but it doesn't.

BengalCougar

6/25/19 8:24pm

Yes it does though it means we won the conference more meaningful than the

Sure it's nice to say you won, but in reality it doesn't mean anything. It would be like winning the AAA baseball...

BengalCougar

So that’s worse than what we have now?

tatertot9

6/25/19 8:32pm

Yes.

So, what is BYU playing for? Also if you haven't noticed UCF is way better than

I never said we are better than them, that's not what this is about. Also the UCF example is a great example...

BengalCougar

UCF got the same respect BYU would get at 12-0. I have great respect for UCF and

I disagree, if we do what UCF did two years in a row we would get more recognition because of the schedule we play.

BengalCougar

6/25/19 10:47pm

Wrong the schedule we played both those years wouldn’t have gotten us in.

6/25/19 11:02pm

I never said anything about those specific years, I just said two years in a row. This year and next year for example..

I think you’re wrong about “Indy lovers”. Most don’t think we are better than all those teams.

So in the end we're a bad joke, a P5 whipping boy

Look, I don’t know what is best but . . .

this is, unfortunately, a realistic possibility

The Big12 isn’t interested in those teams

I'mBatman

6/25/19 8:57pm

I'd guess you're wrong on both points.

ManicBlue

6/25/19 10:17pm

We’ll see

Don’t believe everything you read

I'mBatman

6/26/19 4:28pm

and you should not believe everything you dream up

ManicBlue

6/26/19 8:53pm

We missed out on the BIG 12 because we thought they would break up.

Brigham

6/25/19 9:30pm

and you think these situations are even remotely the same?

ManicBlue

6/25/19 10:11pm

If the BIG12 takes those teams, which is possible, BYU would be out anyway.

6/25/19 10:19pm

I don't agree that your scenario is the future by any means. Also, I don't

ManicBlue

6/25/19 10:35pm

If they take those schools then not us, then we'll NEVER be in a P5

Iki_Balam

6/26/19 11:29am

Because we're still better off as an Independent.

ManicBlue

6/26/19 3:53pm

Based on what measure? You can watch the games on ESPN?

Iki_Balam

6/26/19 4:54pm

Based on the FACT that BYU makes more money and gets more exposure than ANY

ManicBlue

6/26/19 8:55pm

So that's all that matters? Some ESPN love and we're set?

Iki_Balam

6/26/19 11:04pm

You're blaming all these things on Indy when that's not the problem.

ManicBlue

6/26/19 11:09pm

Yes it will.

I thought that said AOC, and I thought..WHY would anyone do that on purpose?

I don’t know many people who are saying BYU is too good for the AAC. I think the issue is

The Dude Abides

6/25/19 9:09pm

Pretty sure many folks think BYU is too good for the AAC

TNT

6/25/19 9:10pm

Probably true. We’re definitely not too good for them. I just don’t think it’s the right move.

The Dude Abides

6/25/19 9:13pm

The current situation and AAC both have major drawbacks

TNT

6/25/19 9:17pm

This statement is right on. 🏆

6/25/19 10:20pm

Too good? I hope, but I’m not sure. But I love much of independence.

Cougarrr

6/25/19 10:21pm

This is a great argument. AAC is so.much better than Indy as an option
