Mountain West Teams in 2024

Boise State

Boise State heads into this game with just one loss and the nation’s leading rusher. They beat UNLV earlier this season on the road, and now, they have the luxury of being at home. 

UNLV

UNLV has overcome many issues this season, including Matthew Sluka's departure due to NIL payment issues. Williams has been a phenomenal dual threat in his absence, leading UNLV to one of the nation’s leading rushing attacks. 

Having lost at home to Boise State already, a UNLV win would be a notable upset.
