You might get in without it, we'll see?
The point you keep missing is that unlike BYU, UW doesn't control who they play this year, the PAC has set the rules, I can get those for you if you need? What happens if UW breaks the guarantee, you don't think that will cost them money? Now, if the PAC comes out and says hey guys, do whatever you want, play whoever and go ahead and cost a fellow members $5M because you wanted to take on BYU then you will have your guarantee, until then, how does that make sense from a PAC level and from a UW level?
That is the risk I am talking about.
