COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) - The commissioners of the Mountain West Conference and Conference USA have spoken about staging a postseason game between their champions in hopes of securing an automatic berth to the Bowl Championship Series.
C-USA commissioner Britton Banowsky issued a statement Friday confirming he had met the previous day in Colorado Springs with MWC chief Craig Thompson to discuss "scheduling, television and postseason football."
Neither league has an automatic BCS bid and would likely have to wait until the current BCS contracts expire in four years to broker a deal for one.
The talks follow the announcement earlier in the week that Nevada and Fresno State will move to the Mountain West from the Western Athletic Conference.
