There are five games against FCS foes, six against Power 5 teams with seven home games, two neutral and two road games.

Jeremy and Matt are back to actually talk some football. Week 0 started off with Hawaii defeating Arizona at home in a very wild contest. The Warriors won 45-38 and it saw a bit of everything with a ton of offense, interceptions, fumbles and defensive stands. Hawaii does have things to work on like ball control, more consistent defense and finding a starting quarterback.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the first week of college football, and that is the Week 0 game between Arizona and Hawaii late on a Saturday night. The two first go over some of the latest news in the Mountain West which surrounds UNLV's offense, Air Force losing players and depth charts being solidified.

The main course is Hawaii hosting Arizona. This game should be a shoot out as the over/under is set at 74 points. Both offenses should be able to move the ball nearly at will and this game could come down to what defense makes the biggest stop.

Matt and Jeremy are back to preview the Boise State football and its 2019 season. The two are also joined by Raja Prabhala who covers the Broncos for the website. The big issue with this team is who will start at quarterback and also running back as both starters have moved on from the program. The Broncos get the benefit of the doubt but that does not mean there are question marks on the program. Odds are that the Broncos will compete for a conference title even though they lost a lot of offensive playmakers.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the Hawaii football for the 2019 year. Entering the second year of the run-n-shoot might lead to an even more explosive offensive, especially if QB Cole McDonald is healthy. The running game must get better at running the ball and make up the production lost from WR John Ursua. The defense needs to get better but on the positive side there is experience on that side of the ball, and to help the team this unit just needs to be average.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the 2019 San Diego State football season. The Aztecs do have a new-ish quarterback in Ryan Agnew is the new full-time starter and a spread offense that will still be running the ball a lot with a healthy Juwan Washington. The defense loses a couple of players but it will still be one of the best in the league.
