UNLV firmly in?

[mm-video type=playlist id=01g1kx1m9c8rz2mjgq player_id=none image=https://mwwire.com/wp-content/plugins/mm-video/images/playlist-icon.png]

We are all in on UNLV making a bowl game. The Rebels are at 4-1 and take on their rival Nevada who are not very good this year. They also host Colorado State and go to New Mexico, so six wins look good.

There could even be more wins as the Rebels will play San Jose State which isn’t looking all that great. Are we going to talk about a UNLV team that is going to win at least seven games?

The Rebels are the surprise team of the conference with typical expectations. Air Force is in the mix too as they are currently undefeated and had some offensive turnover, but UNLV has not been this good in a very long time and Barry Odom will have them to the post season.

Week 5 is in the books and it seems like more and more teams are slowly securing their spot in a bowl lineup. We make a big shift for a potential New Year’s Six matchup and swap out Fresno State for Air Force.

While the Bulldogs arguably have better wins with a pair of power conference wins, the Falcons have looked more dominant all year — outside of the 13-3 win over Sam Houston State.

ESPN Football Power Index like UNLV’s chances, and not just like but love the Rebels chances of making a bowl game for the first time since 2013.

Currently, FPI gives just six teams with a better than 50% chance to make a bowl game but odds are and history suggest seven will make a bowl game, maybe even eight.

[mm-video type=playlist id=01g1kx1m9c8rz2mjgq player_id=none image=https://mwwire.com/wp-content/plugins/mm-video/images/playlist-icon.png]

There are some changes this week that are not for the best within Mountain West play. We removed out Utah State after its loss to James Madison and were close to putting in Colorado State but we are not there yet.

Those two could both make a bowl game but the projections are too close to call and the confidence level is not quite there yet for either team. The Rams are higher up than the Aggies in making a bowl game this year.

Odds are, at least one of those will get to that six-win threshold to become bowl eligible.

[mm-video type=playlist id=01g1kx1m9c8rz2mjgq player_id=none image=https://mwwire.com/wp-content/plugins/mm-video/images/playlist-icon.png]

The Mountain West has been really good at getting more bowl bids than their allotment provides. This year probably will end up that same way with about seven, or even eight teams to make a bowl game.

Colorado State’s close loss to Colorado does not automatically put them in bowl contention. The Rams still need to win games. That goes the same for San Jose State and San Diego State. The latter two are in by a thread this week.

Utah State is going to barely make it in this week even though they loss to Air Force. The Aggies may have some hope as their second half showed a lot when McCae Hillstead took over at quarterback and showed well against the Falcons.

The James Madison will be a test for Utah State. Win and they are firmly in prime bowl position. Lose and there are issues.

Week 2 is over and it provided some interesting results for bowl contention teams. Fresno State needed overtime to top Eastern Washington. A good FCS team but the Eagles were not even in the top 25 of the coaches poll at their level.

That close win knocks out the Bulldogs for a potential NY6 game. It is not out of the question for the Mountain West champion to be there but that slot might be in the hands of Tulane, despite its loss to Ole Miss.

Wyoming is 2-0 and a solid win over Texas Tech so that helps their chances, and Fresno State is not out of it either.

However, the Cowboys take on the Longhorns and that will be another big boy chance to provide an upset over Texas. At this moment, Wyoming is a four-touchdown underdog.

The college football season is here! There were three Week 0 games that happened within the Mountain West, and also some conferences that have matchups for the bowl season.

There will be weekly bowl projections throughout the year and Week 0 is no different, despite the small sample size.

The MAC and Pac-12 are bowl matchups for the league and while it would take a big downfall for USC to be in the Los Angeles Bowl, there is a chance they could end up in a New Year’s Six game to face a Mountain West team.

Changes are minimal this week but we will keep updating these matchups after every game week.

The college football season is just around the corner and now is a great time to predict the bowl matchups for the Mountain West teams.

The best option is making the College Football Playoff or making it as the Group of Five representative for a New Year’s Six bid which goes to the highest ranked champion from these five conferences.

The Mountain West has five guaranteed bowl tie-ins, an alternate bowl game, and this year there are four at-large bowl games that are against a Group of Five team.

Basically, if a team from this league gets to bowl eligibility they will go to a bowl game.
