Take the teams out of the same conference and the fans remain the same. Boy, do I hate this rivalry sometimes. Insecurity, pissing and moaning,false flattery and interest.

Viking, my last conversation related to BYU and the Pac was very straight forward. It indicated that BYU would not go to the Pac if asked. If BYU is willing to accept it, there must be a structure that keeps them from the Bay Area schools. The BYU BOT either massively changed their position or they are basically making two conferences, one in the east and one is the west and calling all of them the PAC.Comment

What the hell happened? BYU had football series with both Stanford and Cal in within the past decade. I know that doesn't mean they'd want us in their conference, but why the animosity on BYU's part?Originally posted by KillerDog View PostPart of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”Comment
