If the Mountain West Went Back to the 1999 8...

I feel like for as much as I'd want to root for San Jose State not just putting those omnipresent College Football Playoffs Stickers on all their equipment for the 1st Time Ever and shake the Northwest Side of Cedar Rapids to its knees in beating Iowa for the National Championship like Concord de La Salle was not a good guest and Cedar Rapids Jefferson was not a good guest and host all the way back, it is not the most materializing image.

The reality is, without believing in Cyberspace, it would have disappered back into the Pacific Marine Layer faster than Texas's Superiority. Actual San Jose State is an unqualified mess, and the Collar is ran amok in Silicon Valley and there is no hiding it.

If we went back to the 1999 Mountain 8, a lot of good money would be on the table. A LOT. And, UNLV would not just maul UNR, but, maul members of UNR's Conference, we'd get BYU-Utah :The Final, with Contracts and Images getting fixed, Air Force would play their Games Earlier to accomadate the Commander in Chief around Thanksgiving, and Air Force would not know if they won the Conference or Not. (Newsflash: They've never won a Single Regular Season Conference Title Outright that is not a Conference Championship Game.)

The irony is, the Mountain West started out as being ticked off at the WAC. Here is how the Western Giant Conference would look with a Shook Away Set of Members:
Hawaii Warriors, Fresno State Bulldogs, San Jose State Spartans, where I almost said SaberCats for the Arena Team, Boise State Broncos, UNR Wolf Pack, Utah State Aggies and Colorado Buffaloes.  Other than leaving money on the table and succeeding at shrinking Boise State, and every member being of Mountain West except Colorado, and Colorado hailing the tar out of Colorado State as the Last Game of the Year, and conveniently inserting Colorado just to put them where New Mexico State is only to have a Southwest 8 in Arizona, Arizona State, New Mexico State, UTEP, UT Permian Basin, UTSA, Texas (Child Please, I want to see the Southwest) State Back in its name badly to save San Marvelous from San Marvelous and UT Arlington. We'd get the Pacific 8 Again so Oregon State could take a National Championship in 16 Crazy, Recriminating, Time Stopping Overtimes.

We'd go from 2 Wild West Conferences to Not 1, Not 2, Not 3, but 4 Western Conferences all before deleting Division I-AA and I-AAA from our histories.
