My best case scenario for BYU

Brigham

7/28/21 9:14am

you think Cinci would reject an invite to join a new BigXII?

Avery

I don't know if they would. I don't know if they view it as on upgrade.

Brigham

7/28/21 9:17am

Of course it’s an upgrade. Higher upside schools, and no dogs at the bottom.

7/28/21 9:19am

I don't think the B12 adding 4 non-P5 teams helps their case to retain A5 status

That may well be true. I am not a fan of big conferences.

Brigham

7/28/21 9:18am

Does it really matter with 6 auto bids in the CFP? Some of the teams left

The 12 team playoff is in jeopardy with the OU/TX move. SI had an article they

Great...

Refugee

7/28/21 9:24am

You know, if that happens, I’m wondering how much more mental bandwidth

Refugee

Needs to be BYU and Cinci. If 4 add UCF then Houston.

7/28/21 9:19am

Not Houston. No disrespect, but they don't add additional footprint.

Brigham

7/28/21 9:22am

The city of Houston would be THE LARGEST footprint in the conference

7/28/21 9:59am

Houston might be necessary for legacy B12 teams to get sufficient games in Texas

Doogal McCougar

Finally, someone who gets it.

7/28/21 10:38am

The difference here is that the others would actually have to kick out the B12

Doogal McCougar

7/28/21 9:21am

The first problem with that line of thinking is "dilute their product"

2FarGone

7/28/21 9:21am

agree. however, the political baggage byu carries has not gone away. there

7/28/21 9:18am

It has lessened a bit but still there. But Baylor can relate.

7/28/21 9:20am

Except that is not what prevented it last time

2FarGone

7/28/21 9:25am

Because it didn't even get that far.

7/28/21 9:30am

There is no way Houston is left out of any BigXII Expansion

B Blue

7/28/21 9:27am

Taking Houston over Cincinnati or UCF is like taking USU over BSU. Bad decision.

7/28/21 9:29am

I disagree. When you look at revenue from non-P5 programs for the 2019-2020

cougarfan84

7/28/21 9:56am

Compare that to current revenue in the Big 12:

Outcomes in order of likelihood:

byujdmba

7/28/21 9:29am

Yeah I disagree completely. B12 more likely by far than AAC. We have already said no to AAC and never to B12 yet

7/28/21 9:30am

It's the negative nelly in me.

byujdmba

7/28/21 9:31am

We're not going to the AAC, but the status quo is always the most likely outcome

2FarGone

7/28/21 9:35am

I think MWC is more likely than a depleted AAC if B12 steals their top 4 teams

Bandit

7/28/21 9:42am

AAC is not an option. BYU can’t but their Indy schedule

7/28/21 10:01am

I think you overestimate the impact of CSU. Houston over CSU.

Florwood

7/28/21 9:52am

If only for a regional travel partner for BYU. But that’s about it.

7/28/21 10:02am

The obsession with Cincy makes zero sense for the big 12

Stev_ie

7/28/21 10:24am

I include them as a partner for WVU and access to the Ohio/Pennsylvania market.

Brigham

7/28/21 10:29am

I don't see how Cincinnati brings the PA market. Cincy is right on the border
