    Of course. They have to get there first, though. Once they have proven they can get there, then that's an entirely new battle they'll have.

    Yeah, but where would they go?

    MWC wouldn't be that much of a step up from CUSA. If anything, it would just be UH doing worse in a different non-BCS conference.

    and they shouldnt go into the BIg 12 , so where do you go? Maybe we would get some recognition if we went into the MWC?

    Slightly more coverage, but I think it would be a negligible amount.

    Maybe if the MWC did a major realignment and attempted to collect the 12 best non-BCS teams to create a super-conference (which actually would be kinda cool) that could consistently rival virtually any conference in the BCS, UH would see a greater benefit from leaving CUSA. But that's not a very likely scenario.

    I just think that UH needs to dominate CUSA year in and year out before they think about jumping ship (or before any BCS concference would think about adding them)

    Quick question for the longtime UH football people here. It seems that Robertson Stadium isn't thought of as a great stadium at all. Does the university have plans to build a new stadium to accomodate a better program in the future?

But that's not a very likely scenario.

    I would love to see this be a new potential BCS conference...

    UH - Probably ranked next week
    BYU - Ranked
    UTAH - Ranked
    Boise - Ranked
    TCU - Ranked
    Fresno St - Nearly beat Wisconsin today
    Southern Miss
    East Carolina
    Colorado St - beat Colorado last week
    Nevada
    Tulsa
    Air Force

    Basically take the best from each the MWC, WAC and CUSA which would create a number of ranked teams coming togathar that would match almost any conference in the nation. This would elevate UH as they would get a number of high profile matchups that would easily sellout Robertson or even semi fill Reliant along with giving the WAC and MWC more legs to stand on when they fight to be included in the BCS.

    What a game!!


    It will be great to see UH enter the top 25 for a change!

    First win over a top 5 opponent in the last 25 years! :)

    Go COOGS!

    Nah that wont work.

    UH needs to focus on:
    1. Dominating Con-USA comp every year.
    2. Improving attendance.
    3. Improving stadium.

    After all are complete. UH pulls out all the stops to get into the BIG 12.

    I've actually looked at pretty decent plans. I'll have to dig up the renderings I saw online.

    And here are the stadium upgrades I was talking about:

    8,000+ more seats would be added to Robertson Stadium. With Ann Richards out of the way (RIP), it's time to kick Baylor out of the Big 12 (and put them in their rightful conference of CUSA), and put UH in the Big 12. :)

    It's a race to see which BCS buster can run the table.....UH still has a formidable opponent in TT, while BYU faces the tough MWC opponents (plus a helter skelter Florida State team.) Meanwhile, Boise has nothing in the way.... If all three run the table, I wonder who will finish highest in the rankings? Probably BYU based on current ranking and SOS.
