I could see the AAC going to 14 for FB & BB to limit travel concerns

Army & Navy would continue to play other sports in the Patriot League. So the AAC could do something like the following:

Football:
WEST: Boise, SDSU, CSU, AFA, SMU, Army, Navy
EAST: USF, ECU, Temple, Memphis, Tulane, Tulsa, UAB

Basketball (no divisions)
SDSU, Boise, CSU, AFA, SMU, Tulsa, Gonzaga
USF, ECU, UAB, Temple, Memphis, Tulane, Wichita

The AAC will always be there. They’ll see what the Big XII does first in ‘24-25

Great fit for both schools-

The fact that MW offices are in Colorado makes this all the more rich.

Like a mile from AFA campus.

perhaps AFA reps will just run over their intent to leave

Initial reports also said Boise and SDSU. It will be interesting to watch if

That is not a bad move for them for a few reasons

Air Force playing Navy in-conference would be good for the team

Boise and SDSU are right behind them. Or maybe right in front of them.

Doesn’t sound like it

They are.

If this happens should the MWC stay at 10 or pick up UTEP, Montana

I think they'll pick up Weber, Dixie Tech Polytechnic, UVU and Bingham High

I just don't see any real benefits of moving from MWC to AAC

9/20/21 8:44am

Boise St and SDST I agree- I think CaliWG is right for CST and AF

ESPN vs CBS sports network. ESPN is college football. American for the most

MWC is sort of landlocked. Can only expand one way. With the AAC you can go both. Plus I think current TV contracts have

Like BYU in the Big 12, MWC teams in the AAC will benefit from the association

I think it's a desperation move from CSU.

I'm shocked Colorado State is... since they are basically BFF's with Hair Thompson...

Good for them. Who does the mountain west call up? North Texas and…Rice? UTSA?

9/20/21 8:46am

With UCF, Cincy and Houston leaving is the American actually better than the MWC

Just getting into a more east coast league is a win for these smaller programs. And Air Force getting into the same

9/20/21 8:48am

That will open a spot for Utah.

I think CSU is making a move out of desperation. They keep sucking & can't figure it out. I think they will ultimately

Navy, SMU, and Tulsa are probably more relevant in Ft. Collins than most other
