I made a few changes this week. First was switching Fresno State and Nevada in their bowl spots following the Bulldogs beating the Wolf Pack. Next was dropping Wyoming, who is in a free fall. I don’t think Boise State and Utah State are good teams are this point in time, but the Aggies will make a bowl and the Broncos seem like the most likely out of Wyoming and Colorado State as of now.

Nevada will also be bowl eligible but the question will be who will invite them?
