Boise States bolts WAC; Joins Mountain West Conference
As reported by ESPN earlier today, the Mountain West Conference officially announced the addition of Boise State to the conference, making them just the second addition since its inception (the other being Texas Christian University.) For those MWC fans (and now Boise fans) pulling for automatic qualification, this is huge news. The Mountain West now has four football powerhouses: BYU, Utah, TCU, and Boise, putting us on even footing with most of the other conferences. There's no reason not to give the MWC an automatic qualification.
