If nmsu got into the mwc wouldn’t that totally go against your point? They have never been good in football… honestly the only team we know each year Utep can beat …. So that would say that got in with a good Bball program?

I believe the point Minerforlife is trying to say is that NMSU will be better at football before us, with Senter at the helm. At least that's what I got from it.
NMSU seems like they have realized being a top 10 mid major for two decades has got them nowhere. It seems like they are going to shift resources and attention to football. If they get football going and we're asleep at the wheel they could definitely get into the MWC over us.
Do you think Coach Dimel is heading us in the right direction? It's almost a given that UTEP will get to a bowl game again this season. If the Miners stay on track and get to a bowl game next year, that will be three in a row. A first for the program. If we can win one of them, will we have finally arrived as a football program? If we do, you sourpusses will likely boycott UTEP athletics for denying you something to bitch about.
We do need to build up football, but a rising tide raises all boats. We're not going to be able to drop all other sports just so we can put every nickel we've got into football. Put that on a T-Shirt.

Given? This is UTEP, nothing is a given... They have the potential to get there. This 1st game is huge, for many reasons. A possible sell-out and a UTEP win, could keep butts in seats this season.
Exactly right shyminer. UNT is also favored on the road. UTEP can't lay an egg like they did against UTSA last year. One game at a time.
I heard they are favored by 1 point? That's pretty favorable to the Miners. I like their chances! Its going to be a great atmosphere! I am flying in from DFW, so I'd imagine some UNT fans should be onboard as well.. Us Miner fans will be a party of 6... Anyone else flying from DFW that Friday night?

Oregon to Big is hedging a bet. Didn’t say Big XII or 10 😂
Can’t find anything either except this
SMU’s president called Oregon’s Michael Schill in late July; neither they nor Pac-12 deny conference realignment was discussed
Is the Pony Express exploring a potential return to the West Coast?
Maybe I’m wrong, but I assumed he meant B1G.Oregon to Big is hedging a bet. Didn’t say Big XII or 10 😂

I wish all math was this easy. B1G announced yesterday that they had secured a media rights deal with Fox and affiliates worth 1 BILLION dollars a year. The PAC would revenue would sink to 300 million a year with the exit of UCLA and USC or about 30 per school. B1G could easily multiply by a factor of 2 to 3 the amount of money 1 or 2 PAC schools is getting right now. The questions is, would $60 million cover the expanded travel costs associated with a move to a midwest conference?

I read that each member would receive $80-100 million. In that case, without a doubt the expanded travel costs would be more than covered.
It would appear that the PAC is in a lot of trouble.
Yeah, for sure. As are the Big 12 and ACC, it would appear. Be interesting to see who stays afloat, and to what extent.
