Bee news services

The Mountain West is off to a horrible start to the 2015 football season.

The conference has lost 21 consecutive nonconference games against Football Bowl Subdivision teams, a streak that started after Boise State beat Washington on Sept. 4. Hawaii also beat Colorado on Sept. 3.

The past two weekends have been dreadful – 0-10 and 0-10. The only wins were a pair against FCS teams and Air Force’s conference victory against San Jose State.

The Mountain West was 17-24 in FBS nonconference games during the regular season last year.
