If UTEP had stayed in the WAC, I wonder what teams would not have been acquired into the 12 team MWC conference. Idaho and New Mexico St. didn't make the cut in 2013. San Jose St. and Utah St. were the last teams in. Probably San Jose St? The would sting after they had finished the year before ranked in football.
