The final Associated Press and USA TODAY’s top 25 rankings are out and there are a pair of Mountain West teams ranked. Boise State moved up to 17 in the coaches poll and up one spot to 19 in the AP poll.

The other team ranked is Air Force which finished the regular season at 10-2 and comes in at 25th in both polls. It has been nearly a decade since the Falcons were last ranked, and 34 years since multiple service academies were ranked at the same time.

The coaches poll also gave votes to both Hawaii and San Diego State.
