We legit can't regularly compete at the Ohio State level and honestly we don't bring enough ratings, despite a large fan base. Especially not considering the headaches we do bring. Sunday play. Social issues. Etc.

I don't like that there is zero talk about BYU to big 10. To me this suggests

Why in the world would the Big10 be interested in BYU? The same with the SEC or ACC.

Okay- I think SEC could have worked. Crazy but I think a ND type deal with the

Because we are better than some of the universities in their conference.

That's always been true. Nothing new. Maybe I should be frustrated I dunno.

I don’t know if you’re just being funny but BYU doesn’t fit their mold. Money is

It has the backing of a wealthy church & a bunch of rich CBers. Lots of dentists

Name another university similar to BYU in The BIG. I love BYU. Think it brings &

They certainly seem interested in notre dame. So it’s not unfathomable to think

There is no “to the B1G” talk for 80% of the P5. There are realistically only

I just think we should be next in line after those programs… or we replace one

Sure. I agree with that. If we ever get to a point where they are pushing out

Newsflash: When it comes to super conferences, we ARE on the outside looking in, along with about 85 other programs.

If BYU had been in a P5 the last 20 years and done well, then maybe they

I imagine BYU being BYU would keep them out.

Belboz

And that is the other problem…religious bias. It’s a real thing.

BlooCoog

8/19/22 10:29am

Totally agree, with one caveat. B1G is falling all over themselves for ND.

The more likely option is SEC. Also, neither will happen in my lifetime.

If we have playoff access, IMO, that is what really matters.

I agree that we’re not a contender, but Cal doesn’t bring anything to the table

They do though. They bring the bay area. An extremely prestigious school.

BYU fans want to bask in the sun since we just got into the Big XII, but I agree

To me it says that BYU fans aren't as delusional as some (cough cough) fan bases out there (for a change)

People are making too big of a deal over the P2. 60% of those teams still suck. Plenty of room for a 3rd/4th league.

How much of their suckiness diminish relative to BYU/Big12 with the added money?

Ripliancum

For most none. They've been sucking on the conference teat for decades and they still suck.

I'm happy with the Big 12. Great fit.
