Well since Colorado is already a member of the conference, I would suspect they would prefer Utah.  This would give them a much better geographic rival.

Utah also has a political angle to it since Senator Hatch and the citizens of Utah have lobbied against these BCS mega conferences the most.  That is hard to do if your state school is in the Pac Plus.

Salt Lake city is not a great media market, but it seems more important than any TV market in Kansas.

And with Kansas, I suspect we would always fear they would defect to the Big 11+.
