During the 2022 season, our team at Mountain West Connection will be releasing our bowl projections each week. It will take a few weeks for things to even out but the projections are becoming a bit more clear. During most of the season, we will only be projecting Mountain West teams and what bowl game we think they will end up in. As the season progresses, we may add opponents.
All bowl games will be finalized and announced on Sunday, December 4th

I made some changes after news broke Monday. I orginally put UNLV in, but took them out when it was reported they would decline a bowl game if offered. Now, the AD said they will accept a bowl bid, so I put them back in. Also, it was reported SDSU would go to the Hawaii bowl so I put them in there. I forgot the Arizona Bowl gets the pick after LA and G-Rate, so moving Wyoming there as the 3rd best team (although the bowl may not want them). I shuffled around the other teams in the pecking order to reflect that.
