Game Previews:

What to Watch For:

  • UNLV: The Rebels has a tough task, but can their offense move the ball against the might Wolverines?
  • San Jose State: The Spartans have struggled on defense through the first two weeks. Can they stop an FCS team this week?
  • Wyoming: Can the Cowboys pull off an encore against Texas? While the chances are low, it is worth seeing if their offense is for real this season.
  • Nevada: Is this the week they can snap their long losing streak? If not now, when?
  • Boise State: Can the Broncos avoid another beatdown against another powerful offense? All eyes will be on the secondary who needs to improve drastically.
  • San Diego State: The Aztecs have gotten two wins through two weeks, but have a tough test going up against the Bruins. Will they still find a way to win a close game or will they meet their match?
  • Air Force: It’s another tune-up game for the Falcons. Can they keep developing their offense and get lots of different playmakers involved?
  • New Mexico: This week is a more appropriate game to see what the Lobos actually look like. What will we see from their new offense?
  • Utah State: The Aggies held their own last week; what will we see from them going up against an FCS team this week? Can the offense show off their potential explosiveness?
  • Fresno State: Can the Bulldogs avoid a letdown against in inferior opponent this week? And will we see a better showing from their defense?
  • Hawaii: The Rainbow Warriors have fought hard the past two weeks, but have nothing to show for it. Is this the week Hawaii gets a win?
