The 2013 Pac-12 football schedule rotation has been set, ESPN announced today.
There are a couple of changes to the rotation from the original Pac-12 schedule grid that was released in 2010:
If the prior Pac-12 scheduling pattern holds true, the 2013 opponents should simply switch sites for the 2014 season.

Do we know why the team rotation was altered for UW, WSU, Colorado, and Utah?

Don’t know why the rotation was altered. Pac-12 didn’t issue any comment.

I think SoS would be the reason, but i think it would be better if they rotate every year, that every team has played in a 6 year period every team once.

I like it, Chris Hill actively petitioned this change in an effort to get the Utes Bowl eligible. Nationally and locally, Utah already has an identity issue as the #3 team in the State behind USU (10-2 and in the top 25) and BYU (7-5 and on ESPN every week) Both those teams are going to the bowl games and Utah finished 5-7. AD Chris Hill cannot afford to let the Utes miss another bowl game or the fan base will go away. They are already expecting season ticket renewals to be under 70% After a second straight losing PAC 12 Season.
Utah needs to drop BYU and USU and schedule 3 wins in the preseason. One 1AA and 2 struggling 1A programs, not one 1AA and 2 bowl teams that are rivals. Get to 3-0 and PRAY we can go 3-6 in The Pac 12 again, then get back to New Mexico or back to El Paso for a bowl game. Go Utes!
