The Good, the Bad, the Ugly: Mountain West Receivers

Welcome to this week’s edition of “The Good, the Bad, the Ugly.” For the next few weeks, we are going to focus on how teams performed at various positions. Up this week: wide receivers.

The Good:

Boise State

The wide receiver position was a perceived weakness heading into the 2018 season. Boise State did not have an established receiver and a true number one target. This ended up being a good thing for Boise State, as it forced Brett Rypien to spread the ball around. He knew he could rely on veteran receivers AJ Richardson and Sean Modster who both finished top ten in the conference in receiving yards.
