Way-Too-Early Top 25 College Football Rankings for 2019

Athlon Sports, one of the top preseason football magazines that typically comes out in the spring, released their annual Way-Too-Early 2019 Top 25 poll. Obviously it’s very premature, but it’s interesting to get a gauge on where perceptions are.

Warrior Beat: QB Jeremy Moussa leaving Warriors

Jeremy Moussa, one of the top recruits from Hawaii’s 2018 recruiting class, is transferring to a junior college. It’s not a stunner, really. When Cole McDonald, Chevan Cordeiro, and Moussa entered the battle for the starting quarterback job, we knew the math wasn’t working here. Someone was likely to transfer sooner rather than later, and that someone ended up being Moussa. Don’t be surprised if the California native ends up being pretty good somewhere else.

Boise State men hit reset button with big win at Wyoming in Mountain West opener

Mountain West Conference play has finally begun! Sure, Nevada probably has the league locked, but we’ll watch anyway.

Alex Hobbs, Justinian Jessup, and Derrick Alston all scored in double figures. The race for 3rd in the Mountain West is wide open!

Nevada too much for Utah State

The Wolf Pack continue to be a bunch of meanies. No. 6 Nevada rolled the Utah State Aggies in route to a 72-49 win, despite this being a contest between what many perceived to be the top two teams in the conference. The undefeated talk continues to build.
