Jeremy and Matt are back for the final team-specific previews as we wrap with Fresno State. This means we have all of our win-loss predictions in the book. This Bulldogs preview focuses on if the 10-win 2017 season was the real deal or is it a fluke since that nine-win turn around was a one of a kind season. The only two areas of concern for Fresno State is the loss of talent at the defensive line and a new defensive coordinator. Besides those two areas, the Bulldogs return nearly the entire starting units and that is why 18 is expected to be even better.  This episode is presented by Seat Geek, if you are heading to a college football game then pick up your tickets this way and you get to help out our show. https://seatgeek.com/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=cj&utm_campaign=Jeremy+Mauss Here is our list of complete sponsors. www.MWCwire.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mwwire/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/mwwire/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/mwwire/support</a>

The New Mexico Lobos have a slightly different offense under new offensive coordinator Calvin Magee.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the upcoming San Diego State football season. The Aztecs are coming off its third-straight 10-win season and are hoping for more this year. They do return most of its offense outside of losing a few wide receivers but the big loss is Rashaad Penny now in the NFL. He will be replaced by running back Juwan Washington and with the entire offensive line back the drop off should be minimal. There are three key games on the schedule and they are all road ones against Stanford, Boise State and Fresno State.  Can San Diego State win them all?

Yes, Mountain West media days were done just over a week but Jeremy and Matt are back to discuss all what went down in the desert. We compare how the media voted to our votes in the order of finish and all conference team.  Plus, we talk about three big stories at the event which included not promoting the league, expansion talk and is it better to have one amazing team are a bunch of above average one's. We also touch on some news that is happening around fall camp which is now underway for the league.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the UNVL Rebels who are looking to have a year where they finally make a bowl game as Tony Sanchez's enters his fourth year in Las Vegas. A bowl game should happen as the offense is mostly back and this UNLV team will have one of the best running back groups in the league and QB Armani Rogers should be taking the next step in his second year as a starter. The defense is once again the issue and the Rebels do lose a bit from that unit, so a bowl game, or higher aspirations, could determine the fate of this UNLV season.   This episode is presented by FuboTV and SlingTV, these are two streaming services which can help you watch nearly every Mountain West football or basketball game way less than traditional pay TV.  bit.ly/FuboTVOffer or bit.ly/SlingTVOffer Also, head to MWCWire.com for more deals. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mwwire/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/mwwire/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/mwwire/support</a>

In this mini-episode, we chat with Brandon Blake who covers Nevada for our website here but he also is a very knowledgeable Florida Gators fan. So, we bring him on to get a first look at the Gators as they take on Colorado State. The Gators have a new head coach in Dan Mullen which means Jim McElwain does not get to face his former team he left. This Florida team has struggled offensively and have been carried by its defense but that could change in 2018. The defense wasn't amazing last year but it should be better with experience, and Mullen is a really good offensive coach so the hope is that more points will be scored.

Matt and Jeremy are back for another season preview and this week it is the Hawaii Warriors football turn to get dissected. The big news is that the Warriors have a new offensive coordinator and will utilize the run-n-shoot but they will be doing so with a new quarterback and a new running back. QB Dru Brown transferred to Oklahoma State to finish his career so there is a new signal caller with a new offense. Having WR John Ursua back is going to be a boon and there will be plenty of balls thrown to this unit. The defense which struggled last year probably will do so again in 2018 making this year probably short on wins but possibly exciting with a pass-happy offense.

Mitch Harper covers BYU, basically everywhere and he joins the podcast this week to discuss the Cougars football team since they play Boise State, Utah State, and Hawaii this year. The BYU offensive coaching staff turned over basically everyone, including offensive coordinator Ty Detmer who is being replaced by Jeff Grimes who previously was the offensive line coach at LSU. QB is an issue as there are at least four in the mix, including Tanner Mangum who has the most starting experience. Former Hawaii WR Dylan Collie is expected to make a name for himself right away. The expectations for BYU is a bowl game and also to go 2-1 against the three Mountain West teams they face in 2018.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the San Jose State football team. They are a team where last year was basically a Year Zero situation with Brett Brennan being a first time coach coming in from Oregon State where he was a wide receivers coach. The offense has the potential to be pretty good with Montel Aaron very likely being the starting quarterback and showed signs of promise in the running game with Tyler Nevens and they have one of the best tight ends in Josh Oliver. Also what will be key is if the offense doesn't give up the ball over 40 times, so if they can cut that down then that should help the Spartans be more competitive.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the Air Force Falcons upcoming season. It may seem like the same old same old for the Academy in that they run the ball a lot, throw deep passes periodically and have a defense that is just so-so. That is what this Falcons team is but one key omission is that they do not have a defensive coordinator at the moment, or maybe it is a well-guarded secret because this is a school Tu is part of the armed forces. It would not be a shock if this defense is just a bit better and the offense hums along and a bowl game is reached, or maybe they will just win a pair of games. Tune in to find out.

Jeremy and Matt are back (sorry for the week off) to preview the now Josh Allen-less Wyoming Cowboys. The big questions for this Cowboys team is who will be the starting quarterback next year with the early leader being Tyler Vander Waal after spring football. There is some decent experience back at most offensive positions but it was really bad experience. So, if the offense can be just about average the defense could carry the way for Wyoming. The defense will be loaded with multiple first-team all-conference players and possibly an All-American in defensive back Andrew Wingard.  This episode is presented by FuboTV and SlingTV, these are two streaming services which can help you watch nearly every Mountain West football or basketball game way less than traditional pay TV.  bit.ly/FuboTVOffer or bit.ly/SlingTVOffer Here is our list of complete sponsors. www.MWCwire.com Or here: https://www.patreon.com/MWCwire --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/mwwire/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/mwwire/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/mwwire/support</a>

Jeremy and Eli are back to talk some Mountain West hoops and the NBA Draft. The two players who we discuss are Boise State's Chandler Hutchison who could be taken anywhere from 16-28. The other player we chat about is UNLV's Brandon McCoy. McCoy has potential to have a solid NBA career but he slid quite a bit from being a projected lottery pick back in November to maybe not even being selected. Most mocks project him a late second round pick.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the Utah State Aggies who have the potential to be in the upper part of the Mountain Division. This team returns all of its offensive line, most of the receiving group and quarterback Jordan Love is the guy. Then on the defensive side of the ball, the Aggies do have a new coordinator but they return nine defensive starters. Expectations are high for the Aggies this year and they just MIGHT challenge for the division title if things fall just right.

In the first of our non-conference previews we chat with Jake Kocorowski of Buckys 5th Quarter to get an early look at Wisconsin as they host the New Mexico Lobos on Sept. 8. The Badgers offense is the star of the show as they return All-American running back Jonathan Taylor, most of an experienced offensive line, solid wide receivers and quarterback Austin Hornibrook. That offense should have an easy time against the Lobos but the defense for the Badgers while talented needs to replace quite a bit from last year.

Jeremy and Eli are back to get caught up on the latest in Mountain West basketball. The NBA Draft deadline has come and gone and Nevada is getting back both the Martin twins, and San Diego State gets Jalen McDaniels back on its roster. The two discuss if this Nevada team is the best one ever to come from the Mountain West. Short answer is a maybe. Transfers are a big topic and we discuss the best who eligible and what Nevada will do now that they are still over the scholarship limit. There is a debate for what team is the worst in the conference next year.

Next up in our Mountain West football preview is the Colorado State Rams who are entering a year of uncertainty in Mike Bobo's fourth year. Bobo has only one win against rivals, Boise State and bowl games, so this year could be a turning point. The Rams have two new coordinators and starting quarterback Collin Hill is not likely to play next year as he tore his ACL in late February, his second in his career. The running game will lead the way and the defense needs to improve to give this Colorado State team to challenge for a division title.

Jeremy and Matt start off their trudge toward the 2018 football season by starting our preview series with the New Mexico Lobos. There are a lot of questions with this team and it starts with head coach Bob Davie who is in a little bit of trouble as he was suspended for 30 days. There is a new offensive coordinator in Calvin Magee from Arizona in a move to get the offense back on track. QB is not 100 percent certain and the running game needs some help, as does the defense.

Jeremy and Matt are back to talk a little bit of spring football as Nevada and Hawaii wrapped up their spring games. The main show is how to stream college sports, specifically Mountain West, if you don't have cable or a dish hooked up to your house.  Also, will the Mountain West ever take over its own media rights deals and package them with ideal kick times but also charge a monthly fee?

Jeremy and Matt are back to talk about the happenings from the NFL Draft from over the weekend and from a Mountain West perspective. It starts with a shocking three former Mountain West players taken in the draft with Rashaad Penny out of San Diego State is the real surprisegoing to the Seattle Seahawks at No. 27. We discuss the roles of Penny, Josh Allen, and Leighton Vander Esch and if they could start, or see significant playing time in Year 1. Then we dive into the undrafted players and predict who could make a 53-man squad that way.
