*Personal note: This is not good for the MW. Looks like it'll be SDSU and BSU in the future, as well.

Interesting: SDSU was the only team in the West to outgain their opponents in conference play last year. Wyoming was the only team in the Mountain to get outgained by their opponents in conference play.
