No. 6 Boise State

Am I crazy to think that Boise State’s reign may be over? The Broncos are on another coach, and it feels like although Boise State will still be good, they are slowly falling back to the reality that is the Mountain West.

I may be completely over reacting given the fact that BYU has won the last two games, one with a third string QB and the other by 34 points, but Boise State just isn’t the untouchable powerhouse in the Mountain West anymore, and I know I sound stupid for saying that considering they are 13-1 the past two seasons in conference, but it just feels like things are starting to slip from them.

If the Cougars can pull off the trifecta and win for a third year in a row, I think that it may be safe to say that BYU will take the crown for the best G5 team out west.

This is a rivalry game, and I will be absolutely hyped for this game. To be honest, every game No. 6 and higher is going to be a great game, and this one just happens to the bottom of those great games.
