Houston and Tulsa to the MWC or Big 12?

Now most of us all know that the Pac-10 could not lure six teams away from the Big 12 and had to settle for just Colorado. In the past few days the story that is catching some steam is Utah going to the Pac 10. Utah is expected to join as soon as early as Friday, and believe me Utah will be going to the Pac 10 to leave the Mountain West Conference (MWC), who has just added Boise State to their conference. You catch all that?

 Now, I wonder if the MWC knew that the whole six teams from Big 12 to the Pac 10 was not going to work out and in turn figured out that Utah was going to be the next team that the Pac 10 would ask. I bet they did but now somehow the MWC must find another big team to add to their conference if they want to be a BCS automatic qualifier. If the MWC wants to really help out their conference why don't they just add up to twelve teams like everyone else? As of right now they have nine teams in the MWC and would need three more teams to be eligible to have a conference championship game. The teams that would peek my interest the most would be Houston Cougars (C-USA), Fresno State Bulldogs (WAC), and Tulsa Golden Hurricanes (C-USA). Not only would that give them twelve but also give them three more respectable teams. Houston and Tulsa both have been two of the top four teams in the C-USA year in and year out and you know they would like to be able to attain an automatic BCS bowl berth chance. Fresno State was the darlings of college football from the west coast before Boise State was. Fresno State literally would play anyone anytime and anywhere and they would make sure that the other team would know they came to play whether they won or lost.

As for the Big 12 current situation of only have ten teams looking to add two more so they could have the championship game again. Arkansas as declined an invitation to join them and who could blame the Razorbacks? But teams they might possibly be looking at would be Houston, Tulsa, Louisiana Tech, BYU, among others but whoever they get the team or teams could never replace a Nebraska.
It is going to be interesting to see where teams will land and eventually how long all this is going to take place, in another five years there might not be a Big 12 if the Pac 10 comes calling again wanting a 16 team league again. But all we can do right now is wait and see what the next move is going to be.
