Move Boise State to Moutain West

Just my opinion but Boise State could be moved into the Mountain West confrence. The move would give the Moutain West 10 teams and would help the MWC enough punch with Utah, TCU and Boise State to make the argument for an aoutomatic BCS bid.

Anyone agree or disagree?

Re: Move Boise State to Moutain West

I totally agree with you Tuck. A lot of people may have forgotten or didn't realize only a few years ago that the WAC and MWC were all one league with two divisions like the Big 12, SEC and others. It was one big WAC conference. I cannot exactly remember the circumstances behind the split up but by doing so weakened both leagues severely especially the original WAC conference.

Ok, if Boise St Broncos jump to the Mountain West Conference. No doubt about it, this conference would have a huge claim to BCS conference status with many quality teams. The fallout? WAC conference would be the worst in all of college football and should be actually downgraded back to division 1 AA where most of these teams were before originally.

Sounds like a good move to me and in conclusion Tuck agree would be a smart move for BSU Broncos but very bad for the WAC conference losing their only top football school.

The MWC has room for 3 more schools to make it a 12 team league. Boise State, Fresno State, and Nevada would round it out nicely. Another option is to have the MWC champ play the WAC champ for an automatic bid.

I have to agree with all. MWC deserves an automatic bid.
