    You're wrong. They dont join until next year.

    Unreal, it was probably a 10 point question too....

    I don't think Utah State is currently part of that conference, whereas Wyoming is.

    Reading not one of your strong suits. This is from the article:


    Utah State will be joined in the Mountain West by San Jose State. After playing one final year in the Western Athletic Conference, the two schools will join the MWC in July 2013.

    No I read it, but I also read that they officially joined on Friday. Still think it was an incorrect answer because officially they did joined the conference, but oh well.

    Wyoming, who is clearly part of this conference is the answer. Utah St. will be a part of this conference in the future, but they are not curretly in the conference. For example, tell me which conference Utah St. will be playing in this year - because that is not the MWC.
