I think they really believe option 1 is either NFC or AFC West.

Option 5, put your tail between your legs and join the MWC

I think you mean Option 1..

He does create an interesting scenario. At what population point is it worth

I would so love to see the Big 12

1 isn’t happening. As stated on ESPN, if the B1G was an option for Oreg or Wash

He's confused. Their only option is #2 (surprise). All the others are fantasy, and lacking even the faintest

On ESPN Greg McElroy floated the possibility that if the PAC 12 can’t get close

LSUcougar92

6/6/23 11:05am

Yes, they are the only ones getting any kind of play in that regard, and it's nevertheless tepid

Bob Vance

6/6/23 11:46am

Maybe wishful thinking on ESPN's part?

CameronG

I don’t think McElroy has a dog in the fight. He just looks at it from Oreg. and

that guy is a nobody, the only Ute fan on that board worth paying attention to

None of the National guys are even close to being right 100% but some random Ute

CameronG

you can look up his posts if you want, don't take my word for it

Strawhat4life

6/6/23 11:29am

And also the go to for realignment information according to you

CameronG

6/6/23 11:35am

His word is as good as anyone else's when it comes to Ute football info

Strawhat4life

6/6/23 1:05pm

So it's likely Utah goes to the B1G? He may have just lost all credibility

CameronG

6/6/23 1:20pm

I'm not sure exactly what he's getting at, I think what he's saying is that Utah

Another reason why the Big 12 has to torpedo the PAC, ASAP.

BlueFever

Can look at top-40 without considering existing conferences

“Bite the bullet and join Big 12” haha. Big 12 has been better than PAC 12 for

This notion (widespread among UU fans) that they are too elite for Big12

cougarmeister

Hold on there! What about Women's Gymnastics?

lbmango

Good point, now updated with that important information.

cougarmeister

6/6/23 11:54am

There are plenty of Ute fans that believe that, but not the majority in my

Strawhat4life

It's 99% of Ute fans on Twitter and the ones here on CB.

I agree with the Utes, their brand is strong and they should go independent!

I need Baylor to beat them by 20 points. Please.

It’s so funny USF, UU, and ASU think AAU status is an automatic ticket to the B1G

runningryan

6/6/23 12:08pm

Yup, having a good program for 20 years doesn’t make you valuable

runningryan
