I'm very angry with Utah for this move. It seems incredibly short-sighted. Especially after the MWC got BSU. What Pac-10 school really fires up the Utah base? Oh, that's right, none of them. How great is the BYU game going to be in August? Not great at all. How does this serve Utah's other-sports athletes who now have to travel to the coast and back repeatedly during the school term?

BTW you won't miss playing UNM, SDSU or Wyoming. They are ridiculous schools.

About time you posted again. Congrats, Ute lover!

Interesting how dead-on a lot of this is now, looking back on it. Colorado accepted, Texas didn't go to the Pac-10 and now Utah is about to accept their invitation.

Nice job!

Also, should we address how ironic it is that we hate the BCS so much but we are dying for a chance to join them? If BYU and Utah (and TCU?) join BCS conferences the BCS will have won a major battle and you can kiss all impetus for a playoff goodbye.

2010-02-14T11:05:16.257-08:00

They won't claim the Sunday Play rule they'll say it's because BYU isn't a "Research School," even though BYU practically leads the nation in business schools. Because Washington State and Oregon are REALLY serious research schools. They extremely intolerant PAC-10 liberals don't want to look like the bigots they are. Does it amaze you that the more tolerant people

No. No he's not. Wow! Ever see so many people pass up on a coaching job at such a big Football school? My understanding is that the University wants the new coach to keep the current assistants so they don't lose the money guaranteed to them.

Amen brother!

Congrats! Way to show up for the MWC. We're getting lots of credit and good press but I wish the pundits would quit saying that Cal and OS just didn't want to be there. what a cop out. It's not like they went out there trying to lose. They both just got beat by better teams.

Maryland is a definite "stealth" candidate for several reasons:

* Big fan base: Would add the affluent and growing Washington market to the Big Ten, along with Baltimore. DC/Bal may be smaller than NYC, but more people follow Maryland there than follow Rutgers or Syracuse in NY.

* Strong overall athletic program: Football struggled this year but is

Why would the Big Ten pick up Iowa State? They bring absolutely nothing to the table except a built-in win for half the league.

Nebraska is the only team that makes sense. Bring an entire state's TV sets, big stadium, big name.

Missouri doesn't bring enough to raise the financial profile of the Big Ten and that will prevent them from being added. It would also sever

I can't believe Q picked BYU over Utah. I'll blog it tonight.

Not sure this is news. It is not like we were waiting on pins and needles to find out where he was going!

It's a very good post, Swint. I do have some qualms with your pecking order (WVa is a no-go for the Big 10, for instance), but you present some ideas I've never heard and yet I never once thought "that's crazy."

26 - 23 Enough said. GO COUGS!

Nah, Utah could sell out the Vegas bowl, but I doubt they will sell as many for San Diego.

Good luck Cougs

USC losing makes this VERY interesting. I bet either BYU or Utah draws them. Would be great to knock off the Trojans this year.

Ummmm. What a punk. Not you Steve. That Max just doesn't know when to stop. He played a crappy game (for the most part) and was lucky to win. He just made us all look bad. Thanks.
