UNLV will visit Boise State in Mountain West championship game after prevailing in metrics breakdown
Boise State will host UNLV in the Mountain West Conference championship game on Friday. It is the third straight season the Broncos and Rebels will meet for the title. Boise State, New Mexico, San Diego State and UNLV all finished with 6-2 records in conference play. Because all four teams did not meet this season, the tie was broken by a composite average of nationally recognized metrics. UNLV and Boise State had the top two composite average scores. The Broncos earned the right to host because of their 56-31 win over the Rebels in Boise on Oct. 18.
