[Harry]

The Mountain West Conference has agreed to tie-ins with six bowl games starting in 2014, sources said.

The Mountain West's six bowl tie-ins are expected to be six-year deals from 2014-19.

The Las Vegas Bowl will get the first selection from the Mountain West, while the Poinsettia Bowl in San Diego will get the second selection, sources said. The Hawaii, Armed Forces in Fort Worth, Texas, and New Mexico bowls will share the third, fourth and fifth selections. The Famous Idaho Potato Bowl in Boise, Idaho, will get the league's sixth selection, sources said.

Despite a number of bowls changing conference affiliations after this season, the final year of the current four-year bowl cycle, the Mountain West retained all of its previous six tie-ins. The league also is considering adding a seventh bowl in 2014, sources said.

A la the New Orleans Bowl being the Big Easy's 2'nd bowl and IMO............CUSA Commish' Banowsky needs to park it in San Antonio and not leave until he secures another CUSA bowl in the Alamo City. This is what can happen in December in San Antone' during a bowl week.
