For those who don't want to be the island in a west-coast-based conference you're in luck.  It's not gonna happen.

 

This would put the current MWC schools a notch above the AAC.

You mean they weren't already with the departures of Houston, Cincinnati, UCF, and SMU ?

If they weren't already, adding Oregon State and Washington State isn't enough to do that, IMHO.

I'd still prefer to be on an island with those teams. Sure the traveling cost will go up a lot, but we more importantly need exposure with some constant quality teams (Wash St, Or St, Boise, etc.)

LMAO we are currently in such bad shape. Pretty much the entire MWC is getting a life preserve off the realignment Titanic. Holy ****.

Wow if this happens what a blow that would be. Pretty much being left in the dust by the likes of Nevada and San Jose St... FML.

Going to make a wish to the big man above to help us get in to a better conference. Please Santa help us!!

The remaining Pac-2 have an opportunity to keep the conference alive and do it in a fashion that keeps it regional. I don't see why anybody would be surprised by this, nor why they would freak the f&^% out about it. Even if this happens, the East Coast dominoes aren't done falling. We'll be fine.

Thanks for pulling me back from the ledge. You're the hero we don't deserve.

Do you mean teams like Bama, Florida, Boise State, Miami, BYU, Notre Dame, etc.?

Wonder what the tv contract will look like for the PMWAC? That's where the real separation will be ....... as long as there's still 6 auto qualifiers for CFP. May even help in that regard.

No thanks to that PAC 12. Not better than the AAC.
