So its better to be indy where you can have the SOS required. Sure, you can say we can't go undefeated with a real schedule. But what you are really saying is we will never be good enough.

Would you join this conference?

Yes.

RE: No. I would not join any...

Yeah....That would be a mistake. That conference would be terrible.

Ingenious idea: let's cherry pick the best of those teams & steal their #1 bowl

Station42

11/24/15 4:55pm

So basically the AAC with some MWC thrown in

I prefer independence over that.

BYU can schedule all of those teams now as an independent

11/24/15 3:01pm

CCG, maybe better bowl tie-ins, & chance at CFP?

WhyaskY?

11/24/15 3:14pm

Won't give us better bowls or chance at CFP than independence

mwcoug

11/24/15 3:24pm

It absolutely improves our chances for an NY6 bowl

SJS

11/24/15 3:26pm

Improves chances for NY6. Decreases chances for a playoff spot.

Lance71

11/24/15 3:28pm

How would it decrease chances at a playoff spot?

problem with indy schedules is they produce a lot of uneven p5 schedules

There's no going back

Prefer Indy over having a conference with a team in San Diego, Hartford and Central Florida. But if it's a Power

HarlemCoug

11/24/15 3:03pm

Honestly, if we add 3 P5 teams and 1 cupcake to that schedule, it wouldn't be

11/24/15 3:03pm

But it would FEEL like a step backward to me.

frontrowcougar

11/24/15 3:05pm

If we played Utah, 1 other PAC, and 2 others from SEC/B1G/ACC/Big12

SJS

11/24/15 3:25pm

Joining the conference is easy. Getting the $10m+/team/yr TV contract is hard.

You lost me at Utah State.

Walter Bellhaven

Add UNLV and Army

Revolution

11/24/15 3:06pm

Why Army?

Walter Bellhaven

11/24/15 3:13pm

I'd like to see all of the D1 service academies in one conference.

Revolution

11/25/15 4:13am

Would screw up our SOS every season. Need to focus on P5 and playoff inclusion.

Walter Bellhaven

11/25/15 7:51am

In this hypothetical, IMO we'd end up playing Army like every 5 years.

Revolution

11/25/15 7:55am

AAC won't do that (cut some of their existing schools), but we could do somethin

As long as we have an ESPN deal no.

mudpupper

11/24/15 3:08pm

No way. No how. Not going to happen.

2FarGone

11/24/15 3:09pm

It's hypothetical...clearly not going to happen or a possibility in reality.

cougarmikey

11/24/15 3:17pm

No, not tempting at all

Not perfect, but its better than independence fool's gold.

Josef K

11/24/15 3:42pm

No.

CMuehle

11/24/15 3:47pm

That'll be considered P5 as soon as MWC and AAC are considered P5.

Yuk - 16 team WAC 2.0 (orphan mediocrity reloaded)

Nope

Join a conference with the hatefull Aztecs? Meh. Better be some good perks.

Count Cougar

11/24/15 4:17pm

I would not.

Samurai Jack

11/24/15 4:22pm

Keep the AAC mostly as is, just add a western scheduling division

boscatar

11/24/15 4:39pm

Is this the love child of the AAC and 1996 WAC?

Steven Koren

11/24/15 4:53pm

That conference would get the NY6 9/10 years

yfootball

11/24/15 7:32pm

Scratch Utah State and Northern Illinois ...

Modiolus

11/24/15 4:48pm

NO! As mentioned BYU can already schedule these schools

Cougarpride

11/24/15 4:49pm

AAC.2 is also a no go.

IronPotato

11/24/15 4:53pm

Nope. No point unless P5

jkccoug

11/24/15 5:01pm

Yuck. And all the bureaucracy that comes with a conference.

Dr MoBYU

11/24/15 5:06pm

Preference is no conference unless it is a great conference. What you presented

RealityCheckedCougr

11/24/15 5:27pm

Only if there were 8 conference games

The East would be an awesome basketball conference.
