The Big 12 expansion groundswell

[TripletDaddy]

This is the type of push back against the Big 12 we need to see happen more frequently.

if a b12 team threatens to make it into the playoff this year, look for chatter from all the other p5 conferences, especially since one of the other 4 slots will likely go to BYU :rockon2:

After winning the Heisman, Taysom will surely be the talk of the playoffs.

Just think, it will all start with such an impressive fall practice showing that Bronco will cut practices toward the end.

What if President Monson just decided that there are things more important than money, and said BYU would join the Big 12 without accepting a dividend from the conference?

Even better, what if he told the PAC 12 that, and the conference booted out the Swoops.

I can dream, right?

if you go to http://www.foxsports.com/ home page right now, scroll halfway down and there is an article about Bo Pelini and Ole Miss. But the pic with the story is of BYU and TCU. TCU is in the b12. coincidence?

as soon as i see a flight plan of a private jet between kpvu and an airport within 400 miles of any b12 school, i'll be sold.

The SEC, Big Ten, Pac-12 and SEC all have their own conference athletics TV networks, built for the purpose of broadcasting Tier 3 games. The Big 12 and ACC do not. Odd as it sounds, the college football expansion insanity is driven primarily by these lower-tier TV games.

[Flystripper]

Yeah. Simple solution. Let BYU keep its own tv deal until the conference tv contract comes up for renewal. Also I am skeptical that there are not provisions in the contract that allow for renegotiation if the conference membership changes.

IMHO the problem is that there is not a great expansion partner to pair with BYU, be it in the east or the west.
