that are no longer tied to ESPN's competitor's contracts that ESPN will have consistently better and cheaper options than BYU. BYU would have low value to them.

So TCU is the only team screwed of the B12 leftovers

LiveCoug

7/26/21 10:16am

That leaves TCU out. Pac looks very weak.

OSU to P12 in this scenario

LiveCoug

I'd assume one TCU/UNLV/BYU (probably in that order) gets in over Baylor

Why do you think Baylor is less desirable than those? Just curious.

Baylor's got a lot of negatives and not a lot of positives

Can you cite stats for poor BYU TV viewership?

What are you wondering? Lots of ways to look at the data; all tells same story

So TCU gets left out too?

And Coastal Carolina????? What's with that?

PAC would take TCU before Baylor IMO.

Although I could see that happening, I don't think the Pac12 would really pursue

I can't fathom a scenario where the PAC-12 adds those four

Disagree...The worst nightmare is:

This is the scenario I'm afraid of

Disagree, BYU's chances at CFP are greatly improved if new 12 team format sticks

As an Indy we just have to be #11 or better...which happened once in last 25 yrs

krindorr

7/26/21 1:13pm

This would be bad it's also highly unlikely

Cool, but that isn't close to your WORST nightmare!

but why only 23 teams? Not big enough in my mind.

Avery

7/26/21 11:07am

How about ND?

Z-Ute

7/26/21 11:16am

ASU in Phoenix is a bigger fish than AZ.

ALUF 1990

Arizona is an AAU school, ASU isn't

Z-Ute

7/26/21 11:15am

Here ya go.

This seems pretty likely.

This would never happen. They are going to shrink this significantly.

If this happened (and I doubt it would) the SEC South would be

To do this, requires so many difficult hurdles, some of them legal and...

Meanwhile SEC which gets better laughs at the others getting worse too.

Michener "Sports in America" 1976. This with play in system.

If that is the move that the PAC makes they are even dumber than I thought

kimdaddy35

7/26/21 2:06pm

Which of these, outside of OU/UO are most likely?

Dr T-bone

7/26/21 2:13pm

I think you underestimate the liberal prejudice of the PAC. They won’t take any

canofpicante

That map of the Pac 12 is ridiculous. I will laugh at them.
