AP releases All-Bowl Team, 4 MWC players make the list.
It’s nice to see the Mountain West getting some national recognition. Rashaad Penny and Cedric Wilson aren’t a surprise to anyone who has been following them all season, but it was good to see Carl Granderson of Wyoming (who had a great season) and Savon Scarver from Utah State get mentions as well.
