Only for football.

Also, Hawaii is in the WAC. SDSU is the furthest west team in the MWC.

Within 7 days the number will be down to 20, or lower.

Wow! I would have never expected that. I think it's a smart move for those conferences.

It was pretty much the original Western Athletic Conference members left after the major expansion and formed the Mountain West. Now those schools seem to have again joined a huge conference.
