It occurred to me after I posted that you surely knew and were looking for feedback. My bad.

Seems reasonable and, even if it is not part of a deal, I think the Big East will keep its autobid for the foreseeable future.

I've seen it speculated on some blogs that this might be the scenario. I tend to think that sounds the most reasonable thing. Given that a playoff seems absolutely remote and that the MWC isn't in AQ contending territory anyway, having a waystation BCS league might be best for everyone. I tend to think that this implicit deal is what happens. That or some kind of free-for-all play-in for one AQ spot, but that seems too bold and radical for these folks.
