Best plays from Week 8
The opening weekend of Mountain West football is here with five of the six games happening as New Mexico vs. Colorado State being canceled.
There were a lot of amazing plays this weekend and we have you covered with the top plays from this first week of Mountain West play. It is good to have football back and the players did not disappoint with their exceptional play.
Boise State 42, Utah State 13
The Broncos got ahead and never looked back against Utah State to cruise to its home opener and win by more than four touchdowns.

Nevada 37, Wyoming 34 (OT)
This was the game of the day with Nevada racing out to a big lead but then Wyoming comeback in epic fashion by starting its final drive within its own 5-yard line. Ultimately, Nevada earned the victory with a touchdown in overtime.
Not only was this the highest game of the weekend but it may have had the most highlights overall.
