The difference is that Vandy would be one of the better teams. WSU is in a slump not a permenant doggieness.
Iowa State has proven they can be very good.
Duke is a team that is climbing back but their basketball WAY, WAY, WAY outweighs what they lack in football.
However, none of that matters because every team that you mention plays stupidly more potent schedules than any MWC team has to play.
I like how Utah, TCU, BY High and AF represent at a higher level and they schedule and beat very good teams consistantly.
Defending Wyoming, SDSU, UNM and the rest of the dogs carries no weight.
They are always mediocre. Can they step up to a higher level? Please show me proof and not beating a down Tennessee to prove it.
You guys are dreaming if you think that a) we should not ditch this dog conference, b) get some really competitive teams in the conference or c) just care about the Utes and a few others who are the only teams that ever made being in the MWC something to be proud about.
There is something about coming to grips with the truth. The truth is spelled out every year in exactly the same way with the same teams...positive or negative...it is always the same teams that really step up.
Hey, I have an idea...use the 1960 something Wyoming in the Sugar Bowl.
Go Utes!!!
