He also said if they go 10, then a team like Airforce who plays Army and Navy every year would only get to play 1 other Out of Conference game.
1-The WAC didn't split because they were at 12. They were never at 12. They jumped from 10 to 16, and split because 16 was the stupidest idea ever.

2-Thompson is an idiot. No matter whether the MWC expands to 10, 11, or 12 teams, we should still only play 8 conference games, just like every other conference that has any brains.

3-It doesn't matter where the MWC gains its 5th bowl game, we need one. Both New Mexico and Wyoming have been left out recently. Besides which, it's our best bowl game already. Las Vegas can't be played later because all the hotels are full after Christmas. San Diego is the city's 2nd bowl. New Mexico is a worse location and match-up with no tradition. And Fort Worth is too far east.

Wyoming would love to play in Boise. So let them play there, New Mexico can play their little bowl game and let BYU, Utah and TCU fight it out to play in Vegas. The losers play in San Diego and San Francisco (why does it sound like the winner is actually losing here?)

The MWC has bowl games in:
Las Vegas
San Diego
Fort Worth
New Mexico

With other deals in:
Houston
Boise

No San Francisco bowl for us. The Emerald sucks anyone (held in a baseball stadium).
