Week 5 Mountain West Football Recap
Jeremy and Matt are back to go over everything in Week 5 of Mountain West play. We discuss if Utah State is a bowl team after thrashing BYU by forcing seven turnovers in the win. New Mexico and Air Force scored all the points and we told you to take the over. Wyoming's Josh Allen is sort of back and San Diego State keeps winning with defense, special teams and offense. Nevada is a complete mess and just maybe Fresno State found a quarterback. SUPPORT THE PODCAST This episode is presented by Acorns.

Week 5 Mountain West Football Preview
Week 5 of the podcast is here and Jeremy and Matt spend a good 90 minutes talking about the games this week which begin on Friday night with Utah State hosting BYU. On Saturday there are a lot of late games, so spend your day wisely getting ready. There is a mix of conference games like Nevada vs. Fresno State, UNLV vs. San Jose State and Colorado State at Hawaii; and also a few non-conference games in Wyoming hosting Texas State and a big game in San Diego State hosting Northern Illinois. We also talk about the future for SDSU and their hopes of maybe crashing the playoff and what games Aztec fans should be monitoring this weekend. We start the show discussing a blogging friend Brian Towle of Corn Nation who passed away suddenly this week and his wife needs help with not only funeral costs but sending him back to Nebraska. He has helped us a ton when a Mountain West team played Nebraska and he helped cover a bowl game when his Huskers didn't go but it was a Mountain West team instead. If you could spare a few bucks, or even just share their GoFundMe page, it would be a great gesture. --- 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>

Week 4 Mountain West Football Recap
Jeremy and Matt are back to recap Week 4 which had an overtime game, wild rain storm, a few blow outs and a surprise defensive effort. We start with Boise State's loss against Virgnia and discuss the expectations fans should have with this program. It is OK to be upset but calling for Bryan Harsin to be fired is a bit much. New Mexico used defense, special teams and a third-string quarterback to get a win. Then we have San Diego State braving the rain to hold off Air Force's upset bid. The night cap saw an overtime game where Wyoming topped Hawaii. We also ask the question about who the heck is Utah State. SUPPORT THE PODCAST This episode is presented by Acorns.

Week 4 Mountain West Football Preview
Matt and Jeremy are back to discuss the games this week as we hit the fourth week of the season. There is a mix of conference and non-conference games once again, plus teams are starting to take their byes. We spend the first part of the show talking about Josh Allen's draft stock which still seems to be fine after he is having a rough start to the season. With all of the Wyoming talk early on we go in reverse chronological to discuss these games and it starts with Wyoming hosting Hawaii. One of the biggest cconference games of the year is Air Force hosting newly ranked San Diego State, and there is a reason that the Aztecs might be put on upset alert. Plus, the rest of the Mountain West slate.  SUPPORT THE PODCAST This episode is presented by SlingTV.

Week 3 Mountain West Football Recap
Jeremy and Matt are back to recap a mostly terrible Week 3 of Mountain West football. Yes, there were games against three top-10 teams and five ranked overall, but winning just one of those games overall is not great (Boise State and New Mexico guaranteed the other win as it was a league contest). The quarterback play gets a lot of talk this week as Josh Allen struggled, again, Nevada went with a true freshman but lost, Fresno State might switch to grad transfer Marcus McMaryion and San Jose State suffered an injury to Montell Aaron. The bright spots were few and far between with Air Force's defense being a pleasant surprise in their loss to No. 7 Michigan and then San Diego State upsetting No. 19 Stanford.

Jeremy and Matt are back for the FINAL team preview as we discuss the UNLV Rebels. There is a lot to like on the UNLV offense with the running back tandem of Lexington Thomas and Charles Williams running the ball and wide receiver Devonte Boyd. The one concern is the quarterback with redshirt freshman Armani Rogers who has not yet taken a snap, but the optimism is through the roof for what Rogers could become. The defense has a lot more concerns and is the one area that needs to over perform if they are going to make it to a bowl game this year. SUPPORT THE PODCAST This episode is presented by Texture.
