Welcome to CrashUtah - Where BYU fans Talk Sports

I thought this was an interesting summary of a number of the MWC football teams:

Colorado State (4-2, 1-1) at Wyoming (3-4, 2-1): The Lobos get to sit back and watch their next foe, Colorado State, take on the Cowboys in the annual Border War on CSTV. The teams, located about one hour apart, have a heated and long-running rivalry. They will likely be slugging it out in the snow this year.

Wyoming is on a two-game winning streak, while Colorado State is still smarting from giving up 21 unanswered points and losing to Air Force last week.

UNLV (1-5, 1-2) at BYU (4-2, 2-0): Rebels senior Shane Steichen won the starting quarterback job with his five-touchdown performance in UNLV’s overtime loss to the Lobos last week.

He will face a tall test, leading the struggling Rebels at conference championship front-runner BYU.

TCU (3-2, 0-2) at Army (3-4): The Horned Frogs are looking to recover from a nasty tumble, going from potential Bowl Championship Series busters to the middle of the Mountain West Conference pack.

Their game at Army won’t be as easy as it would have been in the past. Army is playing its best football since 1996 and only needs three more wins in its final five games to accept its invitation to the Poinsettia Bowl, where it will face a Mountain West Conference team.

Air Force (3-2, 3-0) at San Diego State (0-5, 0-2): The Aztecs picked up a dubious distinction this week, earning the No. 4 spot in ESPN.com’s weekly Bottom 10 poll, which ranks the worst Division I football teams in the country.

The Falcons will have be careful to avoid overlooking San Diego State and focusing on its big showdown with BYU next week, a game that could decide the conference title.
