That's kind of how I remembered it. I can see ESPN's point of view- they don't want no scrubs- imagine having to shell out millions you'll never see in order to broadcast Memphis and Houston games. If it was just adding BYU and another team with eyeballs I'm not sure they would raise the same fuss."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!

Why should ESPN be the one to pay the golden ticket to G5 teams? BYU fits the P5 profile but that's it.

Maybe this is why Fed Ex stepped up to bat for Memphis. Couldn't hurt, I guess.

I am guessing if ESPN has anything to do with it then UT and BYU will be in the same division...

They are just sending a message that they want remembered when the contract expires. My guess is they are ok with the B12 going to twelve but don't want to pay for the scrubs that are choices thirteen and fourteen. Hopefully BYU is in the top two.Comment

That would mean BYU would play in the Texas division. Texas is in the top 6 with BYU student enrollment in a cluster with Washington, Arizona, and Idaho (after Utah and California). Would be nice to have three BYU games per season within driving distance to attend.Originally posted by Uncle Ted View PostI am guessing if ESPN has anything to do with it then UT and BYU will be in the same division...

According to my reading of Google Maps, the fairgrounds border the Jordan River. Also, looks like they haven't built the football stadium there, yet.Originally posted by creekster View Post"I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

Maybe the Big 12 can do West/East divisions...
West: BYU, Texas, Tech, OU, OSU, TCU
East: WVU, ISU, Baylor, KU, KState, UConn/Cincy/UH/???"If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

OU and Texas will not want to be in the same division. They assume they will own the champioship game every year.Originally posted by Uncle Ted View PostPLesa excuse the tpyos.Comment
