The college football landscape is changing. BIG $$$ is being funneled in more and more and is becoming a bigger factor than ever before. That $$$ is going to be dictating changes.

When those changes come, those on the inside will be poised to advance and take advantage of the upcoming changes. Those on the outside are much more likely to be left behind.

And eventually CFB will move to a playoff. When that happens BYU needs to be in a position where a playoff is in their cards. In the MWC right now they are not.
