      My bad...Helper is in Carbon. Those dudes wouldn't have figured that out though. Thanks for pointing it out. Will edit to reflect.

        So to bump this thread...

        If Utah is accepted into the PAC1? tomorrow, as reported by our own Chip Brown (UtahDan), answer me this..

        (And thanks to IPU for being the only one to take the test)

        I can't see why the PAC1? is so excited in taking the 2nd rated, 2nd followed, 2nd fan base team and say that they are capturing the Salt Lake Market.

        That is like telling everyone that you are dating a Kardashian. But not telling anyone it is the fat ugly one.

        I am just confused. I see Utah and BSU as the same. BSU doesn't even own their own TV market.

          Boise St and Utah are good comparisons when it comes to fan base and market penetration. Utah owns 1/3 of a market that's probably three times Boise's. Colorado's probably about the same too. They own 1/6 of a market that's twice Utah's. If Boise were a research institution, they would have been a coin toss. But in the end, Pac just needed two schools to expand to get a championship game.

                Right, because nothing ever changes, and there is no reason to think that a BCS team would have more appeal than a mid-major.

                  You make it sound like only Ute fans will be watching the games. People watching out of bitterness and spite are still watching.

                      I'm currently sitting outside the temple, waiting to go in. Anything you want me to ask for before you're officially denied access?

                          Incidentally the SUV parked in front of me here at the Oquirr Hills Temple has the license UFANS 3. I guess the rumors are true.
