I don't think Boise State would get an offer. I think if three are offered, you're likely looking at:

BYU
New Mexico
TCU/Houston/SMU

New Mexico sounds weird, but it's a growing state with big-time basketball already on board (which shows the AD can commit to sports).

Keeps the "geographical continuity." Adds TV sets (BYU and New Mexico) and some national fanbase (BYU).

I also could see them sticking with just BYU.
