Boise State became the latest team to back out of a bowl game due to COVID-19 cases.
The Broncos are unable to play in Friday's Arizona Bowl against Central Michigan per Barstool Sports, the title sponsor of the game. Boise State's inability to play the game may set up an opportunity for Central Michigan to play Washington State in the Sun Bowl.
The Cougars are looking for an opponent to play in El Paso on Friday after Miami had to back out of the Sun Bowl because of COVID-19 cases.
There are many financial reasons for Central Michigan to head to El Paso to play Washington State.
