That's what any mentioned schools east of the Mississippi represent. And why add ANY BB schools as long as our league is being designated as a 2 bids league? It only increases the in-conference competition for those bids.

The only schools that moved the needle are west - and there aren't but a couple of those (BYU & BSU). And to get those two (which apparently is unlikely) you probably have to bring a 3rd (probably SDSU). All this other talk is just that, it degrades the league rather than strengthens it just to add schools & delute revenues.

I agree 100% (Colorado State or UNLV wouldn"t kill the league but I agree any AAC
expansion has to go west)

Lol. Dont have a horse in this fight but seriously? Why? Colorado State is really bad at football and UNLV has had two football winning seasons this century.

I guess it’s branding. When UCF schedules it’s homecoming game it just sounds better that UCF beat UNLV 45-7 or UCF beat Colorado State 45-7.. It sounds like FCS football when it’s announced that UCF played UAB, Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Appalachian State ??
UNLV has national championships. UNLV has had numerous NBA #1 picks.
Colorado State is the 2nd most popular school in the state with plenty room for growth.
