But more importantly, I just can't see them standing in the way of the move...because I think they'll see 1 major conference vs. zero as better than two teams on the way out with no real chance of ever having an opportunity like that again. Who knows, though.
Well, given how vocal Orrin Hatch has been about the BCS, I suspect he might take issue with Utah getting an invite but not BYU.
