Now that the regular season is complete we decided to extend our contest one more edition. As you can see Matt Blaylock holds a one point lead over me for the title. So the champion will be determined after the Mountain West bowl games are complete. Again we added Nevada in here since they are a future Mountain West member.

Check out our bowl picks are the jump.

Most of the group was fairly unanimous in their picks. Ian went out on a limb and picked Nevada to knock off Southern Miss in the Hawaii Bowl. I swayed from the group with a couple Mountain West teams losing here. I think the hometown crowd will propel the Cajuns over the Aztecs in New Orleans. Despite losing their head coach I still expect the Rockets to throw everything they've got at Air Force.

The good thing here is that everyone sees the Cowboys winning the New Mexico Bowl. That really is the only one that matters here.
