That's not a bad way to put it in that case.

Still would require a conference to change its policy, unlikely. But as you said it shifts the spotlight back to them.

Yep, still requires them to change their policy but they have precedent for that

Agree spotlight should be on the ridiculous PAC 12 rules, not BYU.

As great as this sounds, we all know this will not happen. BYU does not like to

Actions will speak louder than words. No more statements, get a game instead.

why would we do that? we want a better game than the P12 most likely would provide.

Because the damage has been done and BYU needs to fix it. This does both

What the Twitterverse thinks doesn't matter hardly at all. What the CFP Committee thinks matters a lot.

Good. We want the committee to have proof that BYU will play anyone, any place

They have that regardless of what the is out there on the internet. They have actual data sources, ADs, Presidents, etc

You give the committee too much credit. It's the same group that built the BCS

You paint too much of a conspiratorial picture. If the difference between BYU-IN and BYU-OUT is the WA story...

It's not based in conspiracy at all, and here's why....

Haha, they will not pick up a phone and call Tom or UW's AD. Really?

As i was saying. It definitive influenced the committee.

“We publicly declare...” what is this, a proclamation from the Q12?

Hence, my clause in the OP that says a PR firm would clean it up.

Maybe we should "solemnly declare" . . . 🙂
