Due to space limitations, not all of the post-PCC affiliations of Idaho and Montana are shown in this table:

  • From 2001 to 2005, Idaho remained in the Big West Conference, but had to find a new home for its football team since the Big West dropped football after the 2000 season. During this period, Idaho was a football-only member of the Sun Belt Conference.
  • Montana's tenure in the Mountain States Conference (popularly known as the Border Conference) was bookended by two academic years as an independent: 1950–51 and 1962–63.
