Welcome, Colorado State

Contact/Follow @JeremyMauss & @MWCwire

How many this week?

This week we have a new team entering the bowl projections and it is Colorado State which has been on a winning streak and is 2-0 in Mountain West play. To start the season the team seemed like a fringe pick to get to bowl eligibility but the awful start against South Dakota State and Vanderbilt had be down on the Rams.

Now, they are not only on the path to bowl eligibility but they have a real chance to be 3-0 in Mountain West play as they take on Utah State. If they beat the Aggies they would be on a great path to bowl eligibility at 4-3.

This slow start from the first few weeks then to a bowl game would be one of the greatest in-season turnarounds in a long time from being at the bottom of the conference and now maybe a postseason berth.
