Crap! And still no known invites to the pre-season tourneys. A couple of cupcakes is OK, but USU plus the MWC need quality wins OOC.

This confuses me. The coaches in both conferences regularly talk about how hard it is to get a home and home against quality opponents, and here was one hand delivered to both conferences. Given basketball schedules aren't scheduled years in advance (like football) seems like it would've been an easy fix to just start this year. I wonder who had problems with it?

Is this upcoming season when the MW goes to playing 20 conference games?

With travel costs on the rise, it would make more sense for the MWC/PAC-12 to form a challenge (not going to happen)

Our academics aren't good enough for a basketball challenge with the PAC-12.

Sometimes I really dislike having Boise State in the conference. :disappointed:
