Connelly: Hawaii will probably remain prolific, fun, and chaotic. Good.

You know we’re nearing the halfway point of the college football off-season when SB Nation’s Bill Connelly begins to do his previews for each of the Mountain West programs.

Connelly also covered the 2019 UNLV Rebels, who he notes picked a bad year to have a serious quarterback injury derail their bowl hopes. The Rebels did shock the San Diego State Aztecs, much like they stunned Fresno State in 2017, but Rebels fans are starting to get that itch for the next step. Can UNLV win 6+ games in 2019?
