    If the Pac 10 expands, it would appear they have a better than 50/50 shot at it. I don't see anyone bolting another BCS conference to join the Pac besides maybe Colorado I guess, though I really don't see the logic in them bolting Big XII. I don't think a Pac 10 championship game in FB brings more than a few mill, so I don't see why the Pac 10 would be so anxious to bring in teams that don't substantially increase the size of the pie.

    In other words, I don't see a way for

    Future Pac revenues/12 > Current Pac revenues/10

    That's the equation you have to balance to make them decide to invite Utah. Unless there's another factor which is a silly peer pressure issue that they have to be like other big conferences.

        Amazing! We agree on this.

          I based this on a this year time frame for my answer.

            Are you telling me that looking at the results and seeing that 31-40% was the only option without any votes at the point I voted isn't the most sound reasoning for my selection?

              I blame base this on Harvey Unga.

                I didn't vote because I didn't feel there was enough stratification in the categories.
