Welcome back to the mountain! Week two of the realignment wars had more twists and turns than a condemned roller coaster. To summarize, the Mountain West was 15 minutes away from safety, but Utah State’s departure for the PAC 12 leaves the future of the whole conference in jeopardy. We’ll break down all of yesterday’s craziness, why those decisions were made, where the Mountain West went wrong, and how they can survive. Oh yeah, football is still played weekly! San Jose State fell just short of an upset, losing 54-52 in double OT to Washington State, but they still did more than enough to show that the Spartans are legit! Wyoming and Utah State’s woes continued, as both Jay Sawvel and Nate Dreilling are struggling to reach their program’s status quo. We’ll end the show with previews of two mammoth Week 5 matchups, with Boise State hosting undefeated Washington State and UNLV aiming to take revenge on Fresno State. It goes without saying that this is a must-listen-to episode, enjoy, and hold on tight!
