I'm very pleased to announce that I have finished the initial programming of a new and completely redesigned CougarCorner Prediction game. I have been rushing to get it finished in time to allow anyone who wants to join to do so, so there may be...

First 2 games for 2021 season are added to the game. I have noticed I have been having some database issues, due to a lack of resources. So be patient if it goes slow or needs to reload.
I was just watching ESPNNews and they were commenting on Boise's invite to the MWC and they said that expansion wouldnt be done if the Big 12 broken up and that the MWC would target Kansas and Kansas State.
I personally like the move, some teams to...

If they get those two schools in the MWC, I'm pretty sure that they would become the 6th (or 5th, depending on what else happens) automatic qualifying conference for the BCS. The headquarters of the BCS is in Kansas, for those who are unaware.
He told the paper that BYU and Air Force are two teams the Big 12 might look at if it can convince Texas to help hold the conference together and said the Southeastern Conference has shown interest in the Sooners.
This article talks about the quality of journalism regarding the first and later second MWC media announcements of the MWC's Boise St. decision. Granted this took place during some rather turbulent times in CFB nation but here's the best line:...
There are a lot of teams out there that the MWC could be interested in. BUT... How big should the MWC be?

it would be nice if this helped bump each team's annual take up to $1.5 million (up from the current $1.3million). From $120MM to $150MM. That would mean that Boise State is worth $30MM, while the average MWC team is worth $13MM.
He expects to readjust his conference’s television package with CBS Sports and Versus to reflect BSU’s inclusion starting in 2011. The conference is midway through a 10-year, $120 million deal with the networks and Boise State athletic director Gene...

Mountain West can re-negotiate $12 million per year TV payment from Versus and CBS College Sports, but can't opt out. Thompson expects Boise State to increase that revenue. I can't put a price tag on that, but they're a great value.
Just announced that USC juniors and seniors can transfer without penalty and play in 2010. Schools can petition for kids to get a waiver for kids who started at USC and are now in their junior year. This could be HUGE!
Also, schools can actually...

Havili might feel like it would be a little too late to jump ship now but given the news about Harvey, he could come in right away and make a big splash at BYU. Not only would he go a long way to making Heaps for a lot more comfortable, but he would...
We are 2 Years (2008 and 2009) into the 4 Year Period to Gain Auto-Qualifying Status for 2012 and 2013-

If the Big XII folds and you end up with a PAC-16 and a Big Sixteen, the BCS contract is going to get renegotiated, and you can bet it won't be favorable to the MWC.
Those two at the end (roughly the 2 min mark) are of the Pepcon explosion in Las Vegas in about 1988 or so. I was at an elementary school about a mile away. The school had a lot of damage, so the whole school went over to the LDS stake center across...

WHB is now talking about where Kansas and Missouri go.... they''re acting like they could wait as long as they want, dictate whatever terms they want, and still get a MWC conf invite after they've exhausted all other options.
I know that BYU is usually hush hush on these sorts of issues and I'm hoping that means that they aren't just sitting back waiting to see what happens. I'm of the opinion that BYU needs to be extremely proactive in these uncertain times. Here's what...

I'm not sure that BYU shouldn't just pull up a nice chair and witness the carnage. If the Big 12 folds, the MWC is in a much better position of strength than they were a month ago... I'm not sure we should beg the leftovers to join us. They all are...
This will be the unofficial official name of the conference if they are forced to add Utah as the 12th team. RES fits in great with that league immediately.
Are they just another Rice/SMU once Texas leaves them behind?

Baylor will go bowling the next two years, three if Griffin stays his senior season. This kid is everything Terrell Pryor was supposed to be, and Briles has the talent surrounding him to win.
How do they try to become relevent? Do they try and get the 5 leftovers from the Big XII, plus Boise, plus one more?
Do they add Boise only?
Do they disband and try a reformation pulling the best of the rest?
I'm tired of talking about what...

Texas still holds all of the cards. And I am quite certain that they are deciding if it is in their best interests to go to the PAC10 and add that TV deal, or to keep the Big 12 alive and form the Texas Longhorns Sports Network, and rake $$$ that...

Understood, but it's not going to be that much more money to increase to 50K seating or take up any more real estate (just build a little higher). As long as you are making the investment now, why not give yourself as much room for growth as...
Not sure Lane Kiffin can keep his nose clean long enough to keep USC out of a death penalty. The NCAA came down pretty hard. They're on hard core probation now.

At some point, in order for these coaches and ADs to start taking this seriously, something has got to stick to them. Half the time when a school gets slapped with sanctions they just bolt (or just before they get slapped with sanctions a la...

ouch.
My initial impression is that is NOT good news for us.
however, I wouldn't mind replacing Utah with Kansas. Utah's obviously not worried about the rivalry if this is true, so neither can I. And kansas basketball is an amazing upgrade for the...

I kind of feel bad for Baylor.
I don't, buncha creampuffs that depend on politicians to get them into good conferences instead of any athletic accomplishments.

As Thompson said at the news conference, the MWC will try to be reactive and proactive at the same time. I see that shaking out in one of three ways:
1. Expand to 10
Before last weekend, this seemed inevitable. The MWC would invite BSU, and people...

Conference USA will try to pick up whatever scraps are left including the remaining Big East. There might be 6 conferences left. Also I think you have to add the rebuilding SMU to the potential list.

The national sports media would have you believe that Texas and Friends to the Pac-11 (16) is a done deal. They talk about it like its already happened, and the Big-12 is dead.
And its entirely possible that it IS a done deal. But until either the...
