Those are colors but don't ask me what shades they represent. I'm pretty much down to the red, yellow, green, gold, silver, white, black, orange and blue. Oh, there's brown and gray too. Why would anybody need more colors than that?

Can one of the females inform me what fuscia or what teal represent?

Ute4ever, perhaps, you can tell us. Afterall, you sent out the roses to all the guys, so you probably know that stuff better than most gals.

From reading this thread it sounds like MWs criteria means to be in the South, East or Southeast. The four corners of America.

You haven't seen ASU play? That knocks your credibility to comment on anything in the Pac 10 down to about exute level. Regarding the Pac 10 do they not have ESPN, ABC or Fox Sports Net in Texas?

Wow, am I speaking a different language? I didn't say I hadn't seen ASU play. And it isn't about access to sports channels. Try reading again, Husky.

Thank you Tex, but perhaps you should try reading again. I was not talking about you.

Apologies for the misunderstanding. You can see how I might have thought you were speaking to me.

They did not want Hawaii there, and Hawaii showed they shouldn't be there. SOS would have helped keep them out.

If Bronco dumbs down the schedule, the BCS criteria will change on him midstream, and BYU will be stuck with a crap schedule which will then count against them and keep them out of the BCS. I hope he can see the writing on the wall. Play the best you can, and beat them. That is the only sure-fire formula for a mid-major to crack the BCS.
Bronco doesn't want to get fired and then have to move his family all over the country chasing ephemeral ass. coaching gigs. All he cares about is job security, and keeping asses in the seats. He knows he's been living on luck, some amazing good fortune dropped into his lap, and clearly he's not a risk taker at heart.

Holmoe is the same. He will do what is in his interest first. Easy schedules and winning seasons is in his interest.
