Bill Connelly wrote up his 2022 MWC preview on ESPN+. As is typically the case with lower G5 conferences, the actual content of the was a bit on the lazy side, but I expect that.
Anyway I thought the simulations were interesting. Not sure how many times he simulates to get his averages, but he had UNLV with 4.9 wins, 3.3 conference wins and 34% chance at a bowl game. To me 4 wins needs to be the minimum but would hope we can get 5 or 6. He also mentioned Steve Jenkins as one his “10 favorite players in the division.”
