Wow, that means even little brother down south can eventually get a BCS game.

I think this is was a preemptive move by the MWC in anticipation of Utah going to the PAC-10. This is JMO.

Maybe, but I'm hoping not. That would be a major blow to me to see BYU and Utah ripped apart from the same conference. I don't care what conference it is, I don't want to see them split.

With the way things seem to be playing out, I don't see Utah going to the Pac-whatever.

I also don't see the U going anywhere. I expect the other 5 Big 12 schools to announce they're gonna form the PAC 16 anytime now. They'll follow the money and that's where it's going to be.

REALLY, REALLY, REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS NEWS!!

That will happen before BYU's big sister up north gets there again.


BTW y'all, did the MWC think to add the "NO BLUE TURF" rule to BSU's contract?

I like this more than Utah going to the Pac-10/16. Keeps the BYU/Utah rivalry, plus I think TCU and BSU might have abit of bad blood between them also. I wonder if they are planning to pick up another 2 to make it a 12 team conference or more for a 16 team conference?

I really want TCU to stay. I love the TCU/BYU rivalry. Throw in Utah/BYU, and BSU/TCU, and we'll have an exciting conference!

It should be easy to make a 16 team lineup.

Automatic BCS berth!!!

Which teams other than KSU, KU, ISU, BU, and poss Missouri. That leaves room for one more. All though I think Mizzu will probably try to get in the Big 10. I think maybe from a football stand point Fresno St would be a good choice. I personally would like the MWC to dump SDSU they just haven't been a consitant enough team on any sport.

It looks like The Utes already have Boise St scheduled in 2011, 2012, 2013 It's time to see what Boise ST is really made of playing a harder schedule.

> implying that utah will be good competition<

Oh the Utes will be good competition for BSU. Cain and Wynn are looking fantastic this year in practice. They gained a lot of good experience last year.
