I'm with you on this, ejmpalle. I just don't see the benefit, except that the MWC is marketing itself as "the best non-bcs conference," and because of that, I think a lot of Boise fans see it as a step up. Plus, just looking at their history, they've been climbing the ladder since they became a 4 yr institution. The fans are used to stepping on their conference to move up to another one.
