DENVER — CSU Bakersfield and Utah Valley will join the Western Athletic Conference as it moves away from football after a half-century on the gridiron. The 50-year-old WAC is the first Division I conference to give up on football since the Southwest Conference dissolved in 1995, but the additions of CSU Bakersfield and Utah Valley assured at least for now that it won’t also go the way of the SWC. The other four teams in the WAC are Idaho, New Mexico State, Denver and Seattle.
