PrintCollegefootballnews.com has some "way too early bowl predictions" out. Here is the link http://cfn.scout.com/2/862394.html Based off what bowls they have teams from the MWC going to, it looks like they are predicting TCU to finish first, the Y second and the Utes third. I agree TCU might take the conference this year, but I don't see byu being able to finish ahead of us. Not with the loss of their best player and their lack of speed. Personally, I think the Utes can do better than the Armed Forces Bowl.

Zoobs...
will go as far as Hall and Unga take them. Two key players that I’m sure they will ride most of the season. Still no DB’s, but they have the veteran leadership on the offensive side of the ball that the Utes lack and a more favorable schedule than we do. I wouldn’t be surprised if they finish ahead of us this year. Of course I wouldn’t bet on it though.

If BYU finishes in the top-3, they'll again go to the Las Vegas Bowl.
Unless they somehow mange to go undefeated and get into the BCS, which is unlikely, I think.
Though I think their predictions actually go:
TCU
Utah
BYU
If you notice, the Utes are the 1st others considered for the Vegas Bowl (I need to start calling it the Maaco Bowl, but yeesh that name sucks), But who knows, really.
My thoughts:
TCU 11-1 goes to a BCS bowl, unless Bosie State is undefeated.
(Get Bosie State in the MWC already to remove this threat! This would be $500,000 per team not expanding could cost the MWC).
Utah and BYU finish 10-2 and in the top 25. A 9-3 team could be on the edge of the ORV.
I really think that if Utah, TCU or BYU can finish 2009 undefeated, after the mark the left last year and the start they appear to be getting this year as a result, they would be above almost any 1 loss team.
Depends
Utah has started out in the 20s again rank wise. That was their problem last year. This year people might watch us, then again, they may not because they did not watch us after 2003 and 2004 either.
If you were an SEC team and ranked 2nd, how far would you fall with most of your d and promising Offensive replacements coming back in? You’d be ranked top ten. One analyst thinks Utah has better receivers coming in than we did last year.
No respect, low ranking, no trip to the NC.
If we stepped on Oregon, beat the hell out of them? We’d have a chance.
TCU? maybe, but all the Texasophiles hate TCU. That’s a lot of voters.
BYU? Hated also. Besides, they won’t get past their first game unscathed. If they did beat OK? Yeah, maybe the zoobs.
