My BYU, pac 10+2 and big 12 conspiracy theory.
When the pac expanded they knew that utah didn’t own the media in the market. BYU ratings we’re much higher. It was a problem that needed an answer. They couldn’t have their school not own a media market they were in

They started with the pac sticker and shirt blitz promoting utah unlike anything else they have done in other places.

They knew that to kill BYU they had to deny access to their teams for scheduling and that dried up. No Help for BYU. The plan make BYU toil in the MWC and the shifts of the pac. They gave utah incredibly favorable schedules off the bat to give them a leg up.

Then BYU did the espn thing and they moved into a regional phase. The MWC refused to schedule BYU too. I believe this was done part by seething hatred but also in coordination with the PAC. It’s called play ball if you want to play ball.

Then BYU didn’t die and espn loved the relationship giving BYU better exposure than any team in the west.

Seeing that BYU wanted to make a big 12 move I believe at least some institutions in the pac and their allies did a hit PR job on BYU mounting efforts with big 12 administrations and student body groups.

They wanted to put BYU in a box and starve it.

BYU who still kills utah in ratings will join the Big 12 and Yewtah will never run BYU to the ground.
