Why would Boise State put their program in the Big East

That would be some really bad travel for all sports.

Because Big East is looking to expand, still mostly easy competition and an AQ conference.

Boise just wants the automatic BCS slot.

AQ=AQ...why wouldn't you want your program to be an AQ?

I get that they want the automatic bid to the BCS, but geez it seems like they'd lose more money than they'd get in the BCS with all that travel. It can't be cheap to send your women's volleyball team to Storrs, CT.

If super conferences form you need to get into an aq conference asap before it's to late. I'd think Boise would strive for big 12 or pac 12

AQ conference and it sounds like Air Force, SMU, and Houston are all coming in too so that sorta lessens the blow in terms of travel costs (not much, but a little.)

Well, its basicly the Mountain West with an automatic BCS bid. The competition is only marginally better than the MW once you throw out WVU (who wants in the SEC 
or ACC)
It's a perfect storm for Boise. They get to keep their cupcake schedule, get more money from the conference, and get their automatic BCS bid since they will probably win the BigE Championship every year.
