The upper levels were patchy all over especially considering a top ranked
Team, I don’t know what official number there was but the LSU loss must have dampened the turnout because there was a lot of empty seats

Per the donors I know, they stop paying up so much if BYU goes to the MWC. The AD knows it.

If the MWC is not as big a difference maker, then why is not even one MEMWC school even close to BYU in annual revenue.
