"The Pac-12 is not expected to renew its contract with the New Mexico Bowl when it runs out after this season, according to two sources. Conference USA will likely replace the Pac-12 and play the Mountain West Conference representative for the 2014-19 cycle, according to a source."

I just don't see any benefits for anyone on playing the spares of an AQ conference as a non-AQ champion or runner-up. When the AQs win that bowl matchup, their media just crow about how pitiful the non-AQs are compared to the AQs. When they lose to a non-AQ, its because they were just to battered from conference season (see Boisie State over OU in the Fiesta Bowl). When Purdue beats Central Michigan or when Mississippi State finishes 9th in the SEC and beats the CUSA champion, I don't think that helps the non-AQs as much as it does when the champion of the MWC plays the champion of the AAC or CUSA's runner up playes the MAC runner-up in a bowl. Plus, its more fair. Of coures, our Go5 best team will still get to play a top AQ team in a BCS bowl, so they will still have that to enjoy as a huge challenge.

Author says Albuquerque is one of his favorite places.

He must like fat chicks..

If we ever make this game, I'll go, but I'm staying in Santa Fe.

Albuquerque isn't horrible but yes Santa Fe is awesome...might be able to work in some skiing as well!
