re: So how long before La. tech leaves the WAC???

after the MWC and big east merger goes through then CUSA will probably add tech along with four other schools or how many they need to make it a 16 team conference. This is just my opinion but it looks like 16 team conferences are the only ones that will survive.

then this will be conference makuup in a few years

sec
pac 16
big 16
big east

conference usa
2 more conferences making up the remaining 28 division 1 schools or 3 small conferences.

this is purely for football playing purposes only.

then you would have five AQ achools ande 3 wildcard schools and the 2 playing for the championship making up the BCS games.
