Guarantee for non-BCS schools is no molehill for Mountain West duo

It’s not so bad these days being from below college football’s Mendoza Line, where conferences don’t have guaranteed BCS berths for their champions. Schools from four such conferences — Fresno State, East Carolina, BYU and Utah — inhabit the Top 25 having broken from the gate undefeated.
The 54 schools that comprise the Mountain West, WAC, Sun Belt, MAC, Conference USA and three independents have a constricted path for one (and only one) of them getting to a BCS bowl each season. They would like to widen the trail. That’s why Mountain West commissioner Craig Thompson has raised the idea of a guaranteed BCS spot for non-BCS schools.
