BYU in the SEC?

There has been a lot of talk about BYU moving conferences to the PAC-10, or, more likely, the WAC. (This all due to the fact that the Mountain West Commissioner Craig Thompson runs the conference like a delusional Iranian political leader) However, after seeing the final AP poll I think the Cougars could do far better. The poll showed:

12. Tennessee
13. Florida
14. BYU (Rise and shout!)
15. Auburn


BYU is surrounded by some of the heavyweights of the SEC. Clearly, the AP thinks this is where BYU belongs, and who are we to disagree with the omnipotence of the AP? I think we could fare at least as well as Ohio State does against the SEC. I understand that it would be difficult to square BYU's location in Utah with the South East Conference geographical designation. To solve this problem, we could move the BYU football facilities to Monticello, at least then BYU would be playing in the South East corner of Utah. I know this is a stretch, but if BYU were in the SEC, then I could watch BYU football on TV. Whatever it takes, right?

Hey Joe. This is Danny Walker down here in the AZ! I like your thinking on this subject, however, the PAC 10 would be a much better fit. Look at how they have faired over the last 3 years against the PAC 10. And, the following here in Mesa would be great. Then, "I" would get to watch all the games. hehe.
