    Congrats BYU, you deserve it. It will make the rivalry that much more fun going forward.

      I have been waiting for this moment. This is one of countless predictions in this long thread by SU that BYU would NEVER be invited to the B12:

      Oracle, my ass. We are all ready for your apology.

      We need an apology from that dork, Moose, also.

        BYU needs to add rowing and wrestling. The rowing crew could practice on Utah Lake. They may need to move the dead carp first.

          I competed in the MPSF. That is a good conference.

            Remember all the talk about how Sunday play was going to kill us? Lol @ the Oracle.


            Also, Lol @ BYU never standing a chance due to LGBT issues. Zero mention of it this time around. Furthermore, it is very clear now that what killed us last time around was OU/Texas saying no to expansion in general at the last second - not the dumb Iowa State student body.

                I think it was either invite BYU or find a nice G5 conference to join this go around. "Yeah, yeah, yeah... we should invite BYU!"

                      "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                          Yep. My hatred for the past six years has been misdirected. I hope the Iowa State student body can forgive me.

                          Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                            I can. That's something little brother would do (actually, little brother did it already).

                              Cracks me up because aTm fans have been the same way about SEC membership the past 10 years.

                                And TCU and Rutgers, etc., etc. It's a big deal to be elevated from a MWC or independence state to the celestial glory of P5!
