The conference wouldn't go out of business or anything like that, but I'd bet that Fox and CBS have the right to cancel or renegotiate the TV deal if Boise State isn't in the conference.

Of course, but even though they would at least have double than what they get now.

not so sure about that. If Boise went to the AAC and took San Diego St for instance with them- that's going to severely damage the MWC.

Dangerous game of chicken the MWC is playing here.

Unless Craig Thompson really pulled something, its Boise who playing a dangerous game of chicken. MWC will still be the #2 G5, just not as far ahead of #3. Boise could find itself having to join Idaho in the Big Sky in 20 years.

MWC might be #2, but the gap between them and #1 is pretty much just like the other 3 to the AAC.... If Boise went to the AAC, the AAC would get the G5 spot pretty much every single year- even moreso than it is now. The MWC would become an afterthought in football.

Also, if SDSU goes with them, that destroys MWC basketball. Right now SDSU is #2 in the NET. The next highest team is Utah St at #77.
