Amen brother - it was the BEST part of being in the MWC

They sucked at football but had a fighting chance in hoops. The banter with the fans was amazing and rebel, Wyo and UNM fans went all out. Forget gym size, it's the lack of passion among WCC fans that is the most disappointing part of this new conference

None of the WCC games would get on ESPN playing that weekend

It was a lot of fun when UNLV sucked at bball. Not so much when they didn't.
