-Mountain West Conference-
Predicted Finish
1.Boise State
-Sure the Broncos lose their top two receivers to the NFL and are now playing in a more competitive conference but they will still be able to end up on top. They return star QB Kellen Moore, talented RB Doug Martin and will start 7 seniors in the front 7 of the defense. Add the 3 returning Offensive lineman and this team will be in for another good season.
2.TCU
-I think TCU is a bit overrated coming into this year but i just can't put them any lower than #2 in this conference. They only return 8 total starters but RB Ed Wesley and new QB Casey Pahcall may be able to carry this team along with defenders Tank Carder and Tanner Brock.
3.San Diego State
-I really like this Aztecs team and might have them above TCU if it werent for Coach Brady Hoke bolting for the Michigan job and the team having to replace their top two receivers and 6 defenders. Having said that, they do return 4 offensive lineman who will have the task of blocking for a great duo of QB Ryan Lindley and Freshman All-American RB Ronnie Hillman. SDSU has the advantage of playing both Boise St. and TCU at home this year and I would not be shocked to see them win atleast one of those games and make some noise in this conference.
4.Air Force
-Air Force will again put up massive rushing numbers with their option attack behind 3 veteran O-lineman and QB Tim Jefferson running the show and the defense, returning 8 starters, should be decent.
5.Wyoming
6.Colorado State
7.UNLV
8.New Mexico

QB Kellen Moore, Boise State
