Look at the Pac 10's overall makeup.

Berkley/Bay Area (x2)
LA, CA (x2)
Eugene, OR
Seattle, WA

While the other four schools areas are more conservative, they aren't nearly as populated as five of the schools on that list and the sixth school (Oregon) has money to burn.

The PAC 10 can spin this anyway they want to. They can say BYU isn't a research institution, that BYU doesn't play on Sunday's and any other nonsense they want to come up with. The reality is they don't want a religious school as part of their makeup. Yet another reason the PAC 10 covets CU over Baylor.
