Although it is a narrow margin over TCU. -Arizona - Large city TV market and presence in AZ -Colorado - Presence in CO and biggest name in that state -Stanford - Presence in CA and doesn't have the baggage of Cal's restrictions on "travel to certain states by California public money recipients" -Oregon - Program notoriety and Nike money with presence of conference in the northwest. -Utah - TV market in a city and presence in the state without the baggage compared to BYU -Pitt - City TV market with some presence in PA and geographically Big 10 territory -Syracuse - Presence of conference at least somewhat into the Northeast and a state with some talent. -Georgia Tech - City TV market and conference presence in Georgia/SEC territory Bubble contenders: -Miami - Decent program recognition and city TV market. -WVU - Decent program recognition.
