Mountain West Wire

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the final regular season weekend of Mountain West play. Things get going early on Friday afternoon when San Diego State hosts New Mexico, and look for Aztecs Rashaad Penny to have a big game after being snubbe for the Doak Walker Award.

Only a few games on Saturday have any real meaning. Utah State is looking to put in stone its bowl status if they can get by Air Force and reach seven wins. While UNLV is looking to become bowl eligible and hope they get into the post season. The San Jose State vs. Wyoming game has some intrigue as the Cowboys are very likely to be without quarterback Josh Allen.

Jeremy and Eli are back to go over the first week of Mountain West basketball by discussing most of the teams. It is still early to know exactly what teams are good or not mostly because the competition has been up and down.

The early assessment is that Nevada is at the top and then a mix of Wyoming, Boise State and Colorado State. Unfortunately, San Jose State brings up the other end of the spectrum.

Brandon is back once again to join Jeremy as we discuss Week 12 of Mountain West football. There are some key games on the line for schools who want to become bowl eligible like Utah State, Air Force and UNLV. Odds are not all of those schools will reach six wins to end the season.

The show starts with the two once again -- sorry, not sorry -- discussing Josh Allen's draft hype, and then at the end of the podcast we go full non-sense discussing ham, Thanksgiving food and the wonder that is fried turkey.

Jeremy and Eli are back to discuss UNLV basketball which has been a volatile topic this off season since last year was one of the worst ever for Rebel hoops. This season should be much better but they are still at least a year away from competing for the conference title. UNLV could play spoiler at some point this year to make things interesting.

Jeremy and Eli are back to preview the Wyoming Cowboys and its upcoming basketball season. The Cowboys seem to be stuck in the middle of the pack despite having some solid talent and a pretty good guy roaming the sidelines in Allen Edwards who is entering his second year.

The Cowboys are tough at home and have a few road chances to impress when they take on Oregon State and South Carolina to bolster a potential NCAA Tournament resume.

Jeremy and Eli are back to preview the Utah State basketball season and one question we discuss is if the third year of Tim Duryea could result in the coach being let go if he has another losing record.

On the positive side, the two discuss Koby McEwen who is considered one of the best lead guards in the country and if he can help lift the Aggies to perhaps the middle of the pack in the conference, and who can help him do that as well.

Jeremy and Eli are back to preview San Jose State's upcoming basketball season. The big about the Spartans is how they will replace Brandon Clarke who transferred and also how well their new head coach Jean Prioleau. We do our best to be optimistic about San Jose State and there is good news because the program is still much better than it was a few years ago.
