The first really big Mountain West showdown of the season kicks off Friday night when Boise State travels to take on Fresno State. This game could possibly be a preview of the Mountain West title game in a few months. While Boise State is not undefeated as a lot of people hope for, but they are 2-1 and have seemed to right the ship after losing pretty bad at Washington.
