Week Eleven Bowl Projections

Each week members of the Mountain West Connection team will be completing bowl projections. With the lack of bowl tie-ins for the Mountain West, some of these bowl projections required quite a bit of research. We will start with the obvious Mountain West tie-ins and then things get interesting.

Zach: I made some pretty bold changes last week and I still think UCF drops a game, but it looks like they have some wiggle room now. Also, I think Hawaii loses to UNLV and Air Force wins out.

Las Vegas Bowl: Boise State vs. Arizona State

Hawaii Bowl: Fresno State vs. Western Kentucky

New Mexico Bowl: Air Force vs. Marshall

Arizona Bowl: Nevada vs. Louisiana-Lafayette

Potato Bowl: San Diego State vs. Western Michigan

Military Bowl: Utah State vs. Army

Matt: Sticking with 6, but this whole thing is a mess

Las Vegas Bowl: Fresno State v. Stanford

Hawaii Bowl: Hawaii v. Memphis

New Mexico Bowl: SDSU v. Marshall

Arizona Bowl: Nevada v. Louisiana-Monroe

Potato Bowl: Boise State v. Buffalo

Cactus Bowl: Utah State v. Baylor

FatDuckUW: Colorado State, New Mexico, UNLV, and San Jose State are out with losing seasons. Meanwhile, Wyoming and Air Force are still on the bubble with 6 losses. Not sure that I see a bowl spot for them though should one of them get to 6-6.

Las Vegas Bowl: Boise State vs Arizona

Armed Forces Bowl: Utah State vs Houston

Hawaii Bowl: Hawaii vs Marshall

Potato Bowl: Nevada vs Eastern Michigan

New Mexico Bowl: Fresno State vs Middle Tennessee State

Arizona Bowl: San Diego State vs Arkansas State

Mike: I’ll stick with 6, but switching a few things up after this weekend. Utah State may or may not end up in the Vegas Bowl, but they currently have the best record and so they deserve the projection this week. Hawaii is hanging on by a thread but still think they get in. Also, good thing I didn’t put Fresno State in the Fiesta Bowl last week.

Las Vegas Bowl: Utah State vs. Arizona State

Hawaii Bowl: Hawaii vs. USF

New Mexico Bowl: Fresno State vs. Marshall

Arizona Bowl: Nevada vs. Louisiana-Lafayette

Potato Bowl: San Diego State vs. Buffalo

Cactus/Whatever Bowl: Boise State State: some middling Big 12 team
