  • apparently there is some rumor out of san diego about mwc expansion

    According to this radio show the mwc will add boise, fresno and nevada and will get an autobid from the bcs.

    Fast forward to the last 3rd of the recording only about 15 seconds long.

      My brother told me that for BSU's record to count in the next BCS bid evaluation they would have to join the MWC this summer, and play 1 last year in the WAC. He often doesn't know what he is talking about though, so I am skeptical.

          A stipulation for BSU to compete as a member of the MWC should be that the turf in the stadium be green.

            Never gonna happen. Everyone outside of the MWC/WAC loves it.

            Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

              If you're guaranteed an autobid from the BCS with that, I pull the trigger. I'm doubtful an autobid is a guarantee, though.

              I prefer cutting out the dead weight and adding Boise and maybe Fresno.

                I agree, if an autobid comes with that, do whatever you have to to get it done.

                  Just to add some fuel to the conspiracy fire, what if the reason why BYU has so many unfilled OOC slots over the next couple of years is to provide wiggle room for expansion?

                    This is my fear with expansion. More shitty conference games.

                      Pick your damn poison, Jay. Do you want the auto-bid or not?

                        Wrong. We'll be a BCS conference, so they'll be awesome.

                          Without the guarantee, I definitely don't. I don't like divisions, the possibility of additional conference games on the FB schedule, and I don't like splitting money 12 ways.

                          With the guarantee auto-bid I'd take it. Then after five years I drop Wyoming, Nevada, and pick third team randomly between CSU, UNM, UNLV, and SDSU. I go back to a solid 9 team conference with 8 conference games.

                            Good luck with that master plan. College football isn't a fantasy league that you can add and drop members at will.

                              Big East does it.
