Air Force & BYU or Air Force & Army would make a lot of sense. I don't see any team outside of Boise State, BYU, and MAYBE Air Force bringing much value to the conference.

The only conference that's really discussed for #6 right now is the MWC. Other conferences (the MAC) have good years sometimes now and then, but not sustained. I think if the AAC lost 2 teams, that gap would be really tight between AAC/MWC. It would make sense for the AAC to try to take teams directly from the MWC to weaken it at the same time as strengthening themselves.
