If the season ended today, the game would feature the Mountain West’s Air Force versus the Pac-12’s Utah, but there is still plenty of football to be played before the season is done.
Last season, the game featured the Mountain West’s Fresno State vs. the Pac-12’s Washington State.
The game will be hosted by Rob Gronkowski, who is a Pac-12 alumni. He played 2 seasons at Arizona, when the conference was still the Pac-10, before going on to play 11 years in the NFL. While at Arizona, Gronkowski recorded 1,197 yards and 6 touchdowns.
