hawkeyelobo Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 In a non-surprising move to college football insiders, BYU and the Mountain West have agreed on letting BYU join the MWC West Division for 2017. BYU has 6 MWC schools scheduled in football and only needed to drop home games against Portland St and Massachusetts. BYU will replace them with two MWC schools who play at Hawaii and have not already scheduled a 13th game, giving BYU the required 8 conference games. BYU is excited about the opportunity to play for a Conference championship again, and qualify for the Access Bowl. More news to come.

For a guy that professes to not like BYU you sure do comment on them a lot.

sebasour Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Somewhat makes sense, with us headed to The Big 12 the MWC needs a replacement to a keep it's title game. I'm questioning it a bit though, the Cougs have been a meh football team in recent years, don't provide much of a TV market, and provide lots of other issues with their network and not playing on Sundays etc. Rice or UT San Antonio would be far better choices, but hey let Hair Thompson Hair. This dumpster fire league is no longer my problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I move we kick the West Division the hell outta the MWC conference for 2017. They would be eligible to join the MWC the following year for an entrance fee of $50,000, the total of which will be split equally by the Mtn Division teams. Do I have a second?

No, really Crixus... I can confirm that the rumors of UNM joining the Big12 are just that! 2 Quote "Make a mistake once and it becomes a lesson, make the same mistake twice and it becomes a choice."

suralexander Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 You have got to be kidding me. Nothing will happen anywhere until 2020 when the B12 try to get 4 from the p12. If that fails the B12 folds with two to the B10 and 4 to the P12. And a good chance the SEC may take two as well. KState and Iowa State may be available though.
