The people that keep mentioning New Mexico and UNLV dont understand that there is ZERO upside to those markets. A California school like Fresno St has 2.6 million people living in the surrounding valley area (more than the entire state of New Mexico and nearly equal to the entire state of Nevada) PLUS they have a secondary market of 37 million million Californians that might have a more casual interest in watching Fresno games on TV. Thats a huge potential upside that Nevada and New Mexico cant provide. There is just no reason to take UNLV and New Mexico. Both have bad football and limited markets.

Sounds like YOU are the one that doesn't understand TV markets.

Las Vegas is a Top 50 TV Market (#42), while Fresno is not (#55).

Las Vegas is almost the #1 or #2 tourist destination in the USA, with approx 40 Million visitors per year.

Next time...why not do your own research into the matter vs throwing out dumb and non-factual statements like "zero upside to (UNLV's) TV market".
