Oregon and Washington were left hanging for a long time b4 they were able to go to the B1G.
There is no way they'll add Sac State, and I do not think even San Jose State. Fresno State does not want those two in there as it would dilute their ultimate influence in Central/Norcal.
UNLV and Utah State I'm sure in their minds add value from a media perspective, that otherwise would not be in there.
UNLV & Utah State make sense to me.
I'm sure behind the scenes, the MWC may be angling for all the teams to basically change the MWC to the Pac- xxx, in essence adding WSU & OSU.

AAC teams (Memphis, Tulane, UTSA) have rejected overtures from the PAC2 to join. Still needing 2 football teams, they're going after UNLV and Utah State now. The MWC is trying hard to keep them. Even if they succeed, the PAC is going to be a slightly better MWC going forward. Rumors of Gonzaga joining the PAC have also turned out to be false. Be hilarious if they have to beg Sac State and San Jose State to join just to meet the minimum necessary...
