if they think the MWC is going to get BCS AQ status now. If no one had left the conference, there was an extremely high chance of that happening. But no one is going to give them AQ status if the only good team in the conference going forward is Boise. The breakup of the MWC has really made it easy on the BCS. If the MWC is smart, they won't even consider BCS AQ status as an option when making decisions.
