    I think the years of 14-0 Utah are long gone if they accept.

    Don't know if it's a good move or not, we'll see if they do as well in the Pac12 as they did in the Mtn West then it was a good move, if they are a consistent 4 loss team in conference...maybe not.

    The first thought that crossed my mind is that Utah could occasionally beat out original Pac10 teams for CA/OR/WA/NV Mormon kids who want to play near their homes. In any event, it can't hurt Utah's recruiting.

    Here's their shot at the big time. Now they will have to do it week in and week out. 8)

    That's right KP....now they have to deal with playing a .500 type PAC 10 team in Palo Alto coached by a devious Jim Harbaugh kind of coach on their "off" weekends instead of going to play a sub-.500 team from the MWC as a breather.

    BFD...D as in difference in my opinion.

    MCG,
    This will be an upgrade in their SOS. Not as much of an upgrade as it would have been in a few other conferences but it will be an upgrade.

    Agreed 110% Kp.

    14-0 won't come so easy in the PAC 10.....just ask USC.....who even cheated and couldn't get er done...... :wink:

    And Utah is no USC....
