Burmy Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 It's pretty official...San Diego State's staying in the Mountain West too.That means the Mountain West will have 12 teams, two divisions, and a championship game this upcoming season. Here's how I'd arrange the divisions:MOUNTAINAir ForceColorado StateNew MexicoUNLVUtah StateWyomingWESTBoise StateFresno StateHawaiiNevadaSan Diego StateSan Jose State Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkJourney Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 This would make more sense (and couldn't be more obvious) for MWC divisions:PacificFresno State, Hawaii, Nevada, San Diego State, San Jose State, UNLVMountainAir Force, Boise State, Colorado State, New Mexico, Utah State, Wyoming-But of course Boise wants to bitch because it prefers to play more of the west coast teams.

McCall Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 The espn article said they might align the six Pacific time zone schools in one division and the six Mountain time zone schools in the other.

Island_Style Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 The Big12 is meeting later this month. The Commissioner said the Big12 may become more proactive. They are looking at adding 6 more teams. It is coming, people. Don't think for a second it isn't. It has been coming for years. The payoff is almost here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the other 2 teams, its intriguing to me. I would assume they would like Georgia Tech and North Carolina. But if this motivates the B16 TEN to speed up their invitations (which it will), I would expect Georgia Tech and North Carolina to go to the B16 TEN, leaving Virginia and Virginia Tech to get an invite from the Big XII. Just think if that would happen... talk about a big F-U to the SEC. Clemson, Florida State, Georgia Tech, North Carolina, and Virginia Tech all being swept from under their nose.I like it.

HedleyLamarr Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Adding Georgia Tech for expansion's sake is foolish.Adding Georgia Tech to gain a media foothold in "College Football's Unofficial Capital" isn't foolish at all. I'm pretty sure the Big Ten and the Big XII would love to add Georgia Tech when the timing's right.Keep in mind that the College Football Hall of Fame is set to open in Atlanta in 2014. Should the Falcons build their new stadium and the Georgia Dome still be standing concurrently, it's not out of the realm of thought that Atlanta can become a host city for a second conference's championship game. These could be two factors that lead to either conference extending an invite for Georgia Tech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
