The Big 12, or XII, should really change it’s name because now they’ve officially decided to stay at 10 teams. BYU was one of the major candidates for inclusion into an expanded Big 12 but it’s not going to happen.
That means BYU will complete the home and home with Mississippi State and make the return trip to Starkville in 2017.
BYU is currently an independent so all of their current contracts would be on the chopping block. They have 12 games on the books and none of them were against Big 12 teams so eight of those contracts would’ve had to been bought out….
