Fox could take the position that without the Boise State home games, which Fox has all of, they'll air every MWC game they have (except the CCG) on FS2. Then the MWC would get a CCG on either Fox OTA or FS1, plus 3 games on CBS OTA, and everything else on either FS2 or CBSSN.

OTOH, if the only games currently set to be on Fox OTA or FS1 are Boise State games anyway, the rest of the MWC might not care much.

And if Fox reduces its share of annual payments by $7 million to account for Boise leaving, it's only a loss of about $700,000/team/year for the remaining members. If they really want Boise gone, they may not care much about that reduction, either.

Fox surprised me that they stepped out of the CUSA negotiations rather than sign CUSA to fill content on FS2, now after looking like FS2 would be a niche backwater, they commit to MWC content.

They got to be staying drunk or doing drugs at Fox Sports, they are wildly unpredictable.

Naah. The Boise State games are worth having on FS1, maybe on Fox. Nothing on FS2 matters. The MWC games can fill dead air on FS2, or if there's a tractor pull that Fox is obligated to televise, the MWC games can go on Fox's app.

It's all about the properties on Fox and FS1. The rest of the MWC games are a throw-in for Fox.
