Here is the reasoning. It is pretty well known that teams from the WAC, CUSA, MAC, and MWC do not have as strong of schedules as say, teams from the Big 12, Big 10, SEC, or PAC 10. This is a contribution to why non-BCS teams are kept out of the National Championship game in Pasadena, CA. But just this football season, it was announced that Boise State was looking for some more BCS teams to fill their 2011 schedule, and no one wanted to play them(See quotation/article below). Boise State is a beast of a football program! Quite the dynasty.
"So what is on the table for the BCS opponent? The BCS team gets to stay at home (if they choose), they will be compensated, and they get to show their prowess over the lowly WAC one more time."
