The 2026 Group of 6 preview series begins with the MAC, Conference USA, and Mountain West. Gary Segars breaks down all three conference races with championship picks, best futures bets, win totals, dark horses, schedule edges, quarterback storylines, and teams to fade.
The MAC discussion centers on Western Michigan’s repeat case, Miami’s program floor, Toledo’s upside at +440, Central Michigan over 6.5 wins, Eastern Michigan as the best longshot, and Kent State under 3.5 as the top fade.
Conference USA features Liberty’s bounce-back profile, Jacksonville State as the best value, Western Kentucky’s program floor, Delaware’s continuity case, and Kennesaw State’s defending-champ fade profile.
The Mountain West preview focuses on New Mexico as the stability pick, UNLV’s ceiling under Dan Mullen and Jackson Arnold, Air Force’s value if Liam Szarka fixed the offense, Hawai’i’s upside with Micah Alejado, and North Dakota State’s fascinating FBS transition.
Also covered: Sacramento State joining the MAC, Liberty’s QB room, Caden Creel’s importance to Jacksonville State, New Mexico’s continuity, Air Force over 6.5, UNLV under 8.5, best title futures, projected title games, surprise teams, and disappointment picks.
