    is there not a clause to renegotiate if they add more teams?

      They should. For a while they were looking like a power conference with Oregon up there and USC carrying their mystique. Now SC has again proven to be one of the great teams, on paper.

      Now again, no NC game for the conference of champions.

      I don't follow the PAC12, so does anyone in that conference have a "big" win outside of the conference?

        Well seeing at UT and OU do not own their 1st and 2nd Tier TV rights, but the Big 12 does for the next ten years, that would make some interesting renegotiations.

        • They had some good wins in the OOC schedule. Arizona beat OkieSt. Oregon State beat Wisconsin. Utah beat BYU <snicker>.
          Will donate kidney for B12 membership.

            I guess the only way is if the whole conference disbanded. Texas, Ok, Ok ST and maybe TCU left for the Pac12 and the ACC took West Va and Kansas you would only have 3 teams left Iowa st, K State and Baylor. The leaving teams vote on giving the rights back to the teams.

              I don't think it works that way.

              • Hey, Ute fans. You really should talk to your conference about considering BYU as an expansion candidate. It totally makes sense and we're a ton better than your current rival (Buffs ). Anyways, think about it.

                  If you guys didnt hate gays and research so much we would be all for it.

                    Dude, we have a Holmoe for an AD. What more does the PAC12 want?

                      Give me a break. BYU is full of gays. Tunnel singing? Ballroom dancing? All we ever do at BYU is talk about gays. And research. Where do you think all those NOM papers about gay marriage come from? We also have FARMS. 'Nuff said.

                        Well dag'um I hadn't considered that. You have our vote!

                          I've always thought that would be awesome. I promise to bring to bear on the Y's behalf every bit of clout I have with the conference's decision-makers.

                            All this realignment talk is making my head hurt. Hearing Texas, TTech, Oklahoma and Okie State to Pac-12 rumors again. Hang on tight folks.
                            Where are you hearing these rumors from? cougaruteforum?

                            • That would be an interesting conversation, given that they've signed their first and second tier rights over.

                                If anyone other than you had brought this up, BYU to the PAC12 would get more support. You just ruined it for BYU fans everywhere.
