Next thing you know Hawaii will join the Big 12.

TCU is now in a conference with an automatic BCS bid.

Has anybody got a clue what the Mountain West will look like next year.

The only thing I am sure of is Nebraska has joined the Big 10/12.

I think it's a good move for TCU. They have had a couple of very good years and are a hot team. And for the big east it opens up one of the larger TV markets to them. It's a good fit for both the conference and TCU.

They will now be in an automatic qualifier conference so no longer will need to rely on the whims of just the voters. I think it's a big step up for them and that they will prosper a lot from the move.

It seems like a lot of jockeying this year for conferences. Not sure how this will all end up but Boise needs to make a move to somewhere to get them into a conference with an automatic bid.
