No one is picking the pac over the big12 today, couldn’t have said that a year ago. It seems that 11 Schools are picking the PAC over the New12.

Yeah and all MAC schools are picking the MAC over the big 12 too.. until an invite comes every school is happy where they’re at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Brett Yarmouth or whatever his name is was as great a commissioner as some B12 folks think, he would be trying to get the B12's TV partners to agree to give SDSU the same money as everyone else in exchange for Yarmouth getting Arizona to agree to join the B12 if SDSU would also join. Getting both Arizona and SDSU to join the B12 would be a shot to the bow which might actually sink the Bad Ship Pac. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't see it ever happening. They invited three of them. Messed up and missed out by not taking the other three.

since1670 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 The Big-12 is sound. It has a contract and it is expensive for any school to leave. It can wait and see if the SEC and B1G kills the ACC. If that happens the Big-12 could get several eastern schools. They are preferable to western schools for built-in reasons like time zone, distance, ... Mean while, the PAC is vulnerable. The B1G could kill it any time it chooses. That will limit any contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shizzle787 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 The real question is (assuming SDSU and SMU) go to the Pac-12, does the Mountain West stay at 11 or add UTEP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think SMU is quite that high on the PAC expansion list, though your question still stands. I feel that if the MWC wanted UTEP or vice versa that it would have happened already. Suspect the best options will be at the fcs rank. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sancarlosaztec Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I would think the Dakotas, Montanas, Texas schools looking to move up would be interested. interesting outside the box moves might include cali schools like UC Davis and (I bet not long before) UC San Diego. Yeah I know, but major Nor-cal and so-cal universities might be better long term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not considered a good look (especially for a league that doesn't need to). If they are at 11 and they don't like UTEP, I don't think they will add an FCS school if they don't have to.

alum93 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 The population of Missoula is 75k. The population of Bozeman is 55k. I just can't see why the MWC would ever invite both schools, and i have always read on this forum that Montana isn't going anywhere without Montana State. I still think UTEP will be close to the top of any list if MWC needs to backfill. Big city, 50k+ football stadium, good basketball history, and history with most of the current MWC schools. Also, EP has a population of 680k in a county of 740k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
