The Mountain West – Missouri Valley Challenge was an in-season NCAA Division I men's college basketball series, pitting teams from the Mountain West Conference (MW) and the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC).
[5] However, after a two-year hiatus, it was announced on April 2, 2015 that the conferences would renew the series in 2015 for another four years.
Since its inception, one or more schools sat out each iteration due to unbalanced membership numbers.
The first four series had at least one MVC squad without an opponent (including 2011 when two teams were not scheduled).
Of the schools with more than two decisions, New Mexico (MW, .875) and Wichita State (MVC, .833) have the best percentages for their respective conferences.
