Street & Smith
Street & Smith’s kicks off their Mountain West preview for 2007 with TCU as a Top 25 contender thanks to their “stellar defense.†In fact S&S likes TCU so much that they have 8 TCU football players on their All-Mountain West preseason team. Here’s how Street & Smith see the MWC playing out this fall…
MWC Predicted Standings - Street & Smith

Lindy’s
Lindy’s, meanwhile, has just one major difference and otherwise is a carbon copy of the Street & Smith preview. The difference? A John Kerry, oops, I mean flip-flop of BYU and Utah at #2 & #3.
