COUGARBLUE
According to the Mountain West Conference fans polled over the week, TCU and New Mexico will sit atop the MWC after winning three games straight finishing the season with 10-1 and 8-3 records respectively. BYU and CSU tie for third both losing one of their final four games.
Mountain West fans were asked to decide who would win in each match-up for the final five weeks of MWC football. Here are the results of that poll:
Most teams have only three games left, those who have had their bye-week still have four. Both Air Force and SDSU have an out of conference opponent left to play. The Aztecs, who play Hawaii, are the only MWC team with 12 games this season, next year 12 games will be the usual. Air Force will be playing Army and according to MWC fans, it's the only game the Falcons win.

If MWC fans were psychic:
However, the psychic MWC fans predicted this at the beginning of the season:
Games to consider:
CSU at New Mexico - The Rams need this for hope of a share of the title, but the Rams have lost all away games and won all home games.
Wyoming at Utah - Once thought to be a battle for the MWC championship, it's now the battle for a 5-4 record and chance for a bowl game.
CSU at TCU - The Horned Frogs are on a roll but they have done it primarily with turnovers but the Rams have a +5 turnover margin.
BYU at Wyoming - BYU loses often at Wyoming, but they need to beat them or Utah to finish with their first winning record in three years.
New Mexico at Utah - This could be the last hope for the Utes bowl chances and the Lobos chance to virtually clinch second place in the MWC.
Utah at BYU - BYU and Utah could both be at 5-5 making this Holy War rivalry the difference of a losing season/winning season for the victor.
