Pods for this Pac-12 would beBy that logic the Pac-12 won't add Oklahoma State and to get Oklahoma/Texas they will need to take Oklahoma State and a 4th team which unless its Kansas won't be academically top 100. I don't think the Pac-12 will take both Nevada and UNLV, but 1 of them isn't out of the question. It gets the Pac-12 network into a new state Nevada(and NV is a growing state as during the last census they gained an EV), and creates new revenue for the entire conference. If UNLV football improved they would have a chance IMO as their basketball was ranked in the top 10 by ESPN when they did their all-time rankings a couple years ago. Boise State needs to improve its academics greatly to get invited, by New Mexico and BYU would pass the academic tests, and if BYU would get off there high-horse about Sunday I think they would bring a 60k seat stadium and would bring value along with New Mexico to the Pac-12 and its network.
