UNLV & Fresno State get statement wins! Sky nearly falls for Nevada & CSU! Must Watch Games of Week 3! W2 Recap!
Description
Welcome back everyone, to the Hike’s Peak podcast, thank you for coming back to the mountain! The second full week of the season was much kinder to the Mountain West than the first, with the conference combining for an 8 and 3 record this weekend! By far, the two biggest wins came courtesy of UNLV, who made a statement against Nico Iamaleava and UCLA, and Fresno State, who came out on top of a wild contest against Oregon State in Corvallis. We’ll break down both of those performances, complete with the biggest takeaways, and then we’ll switch gears, because not all wins are necessarily positive ones. We’ll go over Colorado State’s near-death experience against in-state FCS school Northern Colorado, as well as Nevada pulling a rabbit out of a hat to beat Sacramento State. Both contests have a lot of things to pull apart as to what went wrong, so excited for that part of the show. To end the show, we’ll hand out our second Player of the Week award, and I’ll tell you the three can’t miss games for week three. No time to waste, let’s just dive right in!
