Oregon State, Washington State and the Mountain West are in the final stages of striking a football scheduling agreement for the 2024 season that includes a lucrative financial package for MWC schools, sources tell Yahoo Sports.

The remaining two members of the Pac-12 and the Mountain West are finalizing the long-talked about partnership with an announcement planned in the coming days. The agreement, for now just one season, is expected to include a fee of about $14 million paid to the Mountain West.

The alliance is built around what’s termed a “7+1” format where Mountain West teams play seven conference games — not eight — plus one game against either Washington State or Oregon State.
