Mountain West Men’s Basketball Viewer’s Guide: Opening Night
Timothy Hurst/The Coloradoan Mountain West basketball officially begins tonight with six regular-season games to tip off the 2021-2022 season. All 11 teams will play within the first three days of the new season.
Much of the teams will start out with home games against smaller schools, but later on in the weekend, there will be several important matchups against quality opponents that could have NCAA Tournament implications.
Other teams will venture on the road for the early season and some will face Power 5 teams early in the season. But for now, it’s time to pay attention to these first few days of action to get a taste of what we could expect from the Mountain West this season.
