If BYU were to be invited to the Big 12, they'd fare no better, and maybe even worse, in football in the Big 12 than Utah has fared in the PAC. Is that what the BYU fanbase REALLY wants? I don't think so. I think they want MWC/WAC results. Load up on the cupcakes, win 9-10 games in the regular season. Go to a bowl game and feel good about your team and view yourself as a "national power" and a good team.
