Byu wanted marriage, but plaque-12 got what it needed without the messy commitment with someone so heretical and against their cultural dogma.
And why commit? Byu was Always available and always a welcome illicit weekend tryst. Pac-12 could still uphold their lofty anti-religious ideals and not suffer the consequence of their hypocrisy.
Then rich big 12 comes along and byu is no longer available even for the weekends. Pac-12!is suddenly desperate for marriage and the only option is ugly daughter, giddy, high pitched voice, thick ankled smu.
It’s so delicious.
