IMO, the most likely result of the non-AQ schools is for the current BCS leagues to poach the handful of high-quality non-AQ teams. Let's be honest in the MWC and WAC only TCU, Utah, BYU and Boise have much to crow about when it comes to wanting BCS admittance. The remaining teams in those leagues are complete also-rans. Same with the other non-AQ conferences. Only a small handful of teams bring much to the table. I almost that (the poaching) as being more likely that anything.

What, no love for Marshall, Bowling Green, and Hawaii? ;)

There was some love given to Marshall, and Bowling Green. But yes, no love for Hawaii.

I think if the pac 10, big 10, and Big XII, and BE expand, that is 8 teams that will go elsewhere.

BSU

BYU

TCU

UofU

AFA (I think they go Indy if no one picks em up)

Nevada

Tulsa

ECU

Is who I could see being taken.

There are also approximately 50% of the BCS schools who don't have much to crow about being BCS schools. They should be eliminated too, to be fair.
