ESPN's Bruce Feldman wrote an interesting piece.

I think we can easily identify what points make us attractive and what points hurt us.

10. Climate

There ya go:

"3. Conference appeal: The difference between being in a BCS conference and a non-BCS conference is eye-popping. Bowl money, bowl tie-ins and TV exposure are the start, followed by the appeal to sell recruits on the lure of playing in the SEC or Big Ten as opposed to Conference-USA or the MAC. In essence, even if you're at a second-tier BCS conference school, you can tout playing against your leagues superpowers as a draw."

It is what it is. The lay of the land of the BCS-BS Cartel & the rest of us.
