Is there going to be a New Year’s Six game?
The college football season is just around the corner and now is a great time to predict the bowl matchups for the Mountain West teams.
The best option is making the College Football Playoff or making it as the Group of Five representative for a New Year’s Six bid which goes to the highest ranked champion from these five conferences.
The Mountain West has five guaranteed bowl tie-ins, an alternate bowl game, and this year there are four at-large bowl games that are against a Group of Five team.
Basically, if a team from this league gets to bowl eligibility they will go to a bowl game.
