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.

Jeremy and Eli are back to preview San Diego State's upcoming basketball season. The big question revolves around the Aztecs not having Steve Fisher roaming the sidelines, but instead Brian Dutcher moves one seat over as the head guy. One key addition that is discussed is former San Francisco guard Devin Watson who just might be the scoring burst that the Aztecs have sorely lacked the past few years.

Jeremy and Eli are back to preview the Nevada Wol Pack who are the overwhelming team to win the Mountain West, but could be some concerns with the amount of transfers which Nevada is relying on and also the loss of Cameron Oliver. Even with the potential issues at hand, Eric Musselman should be able to lead them to the regular season title and back to the NCAA Tournament.

Jeremy and Matt are back to recap a Week 10 which featured the first snow football game of the year between Colorado State and Wyoming. There are now two more teams that are now bowl eligible: The Wyoming Cowboys and the Fresno State Bulldogs. Boise State continued to prove it is the best team in the conference as they dismantled Nevada, 41-14, and held that offense in check. We also had Utah State get back to .500 as they topped New Mexico by winning the turnover battle and having a few big plays. SUPPORT THE PODCAST This episode is presented by Texture.

Jeremy and Eli are back to discuss the upcoming Colorado State season. The Rams lost a decent amount of talent from last year and may not be able to replicate last year's success with a short bench. Head coach Larry Eustachy is a great coach and should be able to get this team together but making a run at the Mountain West title might not be in the cards this year.

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview a huge slate of Saturday games. There is one out of league game with San Jose State traveling to BYU in a matchup of a pair of 1-7 teams on the year. We discuss if Fresno State may be in a let down spot as they take on a potential Armani Rogers-less UNLV team as a three-touchdown favorite. Who would of thought that the Bulldogs would ever be that large of a favorite this year. San Diego State is hoping to end its two-game skid at Hawaii, an over looked rivalry between Colorado State and Air Force takes place, New Mexico takes on Wyoming and the battle of four quarterbacks will go down when Boise State and Utah State take the field together.

This week Jeremy Mauss is joined by Brandon Blake to discuss the Week 8 action. Since we have Brandon on the show we go a little bit in a different direction by talking about BYU vs. Nevada (and the rest of the Mountain West), are the Wolf Pack getting better and Josh Allen draft hype.

There is a lot to like about this team with the return of Chandler Hutchison who tested the NBA Draft waters last year.
