Broncos Again Picked To Win Mountain West

The Boise State football team has again been picked to win the Mountain West Conference.  Media members selected the Broncos as the preseason favorites during the conference’s annual media days that kicked off Tuesday morning in Las Vegas.  This is the final year the Broncos will play in the Mountain West before leaving for the Big East.  It’s the fifth straight year Boise State has been picked to finish first. 

Five Broncos were also selected for the preseason All Mountain West team.  They are Mike Atkinson (DL), Matt Miller (WR), Jamar Taylor (CB), Joe Kellogg (OL) and Mitch Burroughs (Returner).  Boise State had more players picked than any other MWC team. 

Boise State begins preseason practices on August 4th.
