Mountaintop View 10-20-21. Aztec QB, Wyoming offense, Murray rankings, Bronco gone, SDSU top of PAC-12?

It’s halfway through the week and Mountain West games are just two days away. As always, the links press on. Check out what is coming your way today and the rest of the week.

Aztecs name Johnson starter.

A 6-0 team making changes at QB may raise some eyebrows but Lucas Johnson, the transfer, has helped the team to victories over Utah and Towson, filling in while the starter was injured. He also tossed the TD to seal the win against SJSU. Could the best team in the conference be getting better?

Cowboys looking for changes on offense.

Craig Bohl says there are no grumblings in the locker room by the defense for the offensive woes. The defense remains focused on doing their job, not complaining. However, changes may be coming, as Bohl will use this week to reevaluate the QB position and figure out who gives them the best chance to win.

Murray’s rankings.

Here are the latest rankings from Nevada writer Chris Murray. Air Force has jumped a few teams after their big win. Broncos drop, Rams are slowly climbing, and is there a place lower than 12th for UNLV? However, take a look at his prediction for their next game.

Long-tenured WR dismissed from team.

Aztecs are top of the MWC and PAC-12.
