Perhaps Colorado and Utah would have gotten offers under a difference scenario, but we'll never know, because the reason it went down the way it did was the Pac's aversion to Baylor horning in on the deal.


Nebraska tried to go to the B1G for about 100 years before actually getting it. This is fact not fiction, so all the talk of the Buffs to the PAC forgets it was Big Red started the dam bursting in the Big 12.

Technically, it was Missouri flirting with the Big 10 that caused Beebe to get the "are you in or out" answer...at which point, Nebraska said "we're out".
