It’s time to release our SIS All-Conference teams. We used our all-encompassing player value stat, Total Points, along with other metrics and our scouting work as leading references in putting together our team of selections for 2025, plus some honorable mentions.
You can learn more about Total Points and the statistics referenced within this article here.
These picks are meant to honor this season’s best-of-the-best in the Mountain West/Pac-12.
Offense
| Position | Name | School |
| QB | Bryson Barnes | Utah State |
| RB | Jai’Den Thomas | UNLV |
| WR | Jackson Harris | Hawaii |
| WR | Jaden Bradley | UNLV |
| TE | Bruin Fleischmann | Air Force |
| FLEX | Dylan Riley | Boise State |
| OT | Nathan Elwood | Air Force |
| OT | Kage Casey | Boise State |
| OG | Jack Burnett | Air Force |
| OG | Roger Carreon | Boise State |
| OC | Costen Cooley | Air Force |
This season’s team is headlined by a true mobile threat quarterback in Bryson Barnes. He led all MW/P12 rushers with 40 Rushing Points Earned, 7 points ahead of the next closest player. This also led to him being ranked 18th nationally among all FBS rushers.
A name that should be on more radars is that of Jackson Harris, who led the country in Receiving Points Earned with 41. He also finished 4th among all FBS receivers with 59 EPA.
As far as the trenches go, Costen Cooley was one of the best blockers in the country this season. His 5 total Blown Blocks was the fewest of any FBS offensive lineman that played regularly. Pairing that with his nationally leading 30 Run Blocking Points Earned made his selection that much easier.
Defense

| DT | De’Jon Benton | Hawaii |
| DT | Ben Florentine | Wyoming |

On the defensive side, edge rusher Keyshawn James-Newby finished 4th in FBS in both hurries (39) and hits (30). His All-Conference team counterpart, Dylan Labarbera, made his own mark as he finished 7th in the country in pressures with 54.
The secondary also held its own, as San Diego State’s Chris Johnson and Fresno State’s Al’zillion Hamilton finished 1st and 3rd nationally in Pass Defense Points Saved with 39 and 36. Johnson’s 146 interception return yards also ranked him 2nd in FBS among all defenders.
Specialists
| Position | Name | School |
| K | Kansei Matsuzawa | Hawaii |
| P | Billy Gowers | Hawaii |
| Returner | Jordan Napier | San Diego State |
Kansei Matsuzawa was not just one of the most reliable kickers in the MW/P12, but also in the country. He made 96% of his field goals with 11 of his 26 attempts being from 40+ yards.
Matsuzawa’s teammate and special teams counterpart, Billy Gowers, put together his own impressive season with 24 of his 47 total punts landing inside the 20, which ranked him 9th in FBS.
Rounding out the special teams unit is San Diego State’s returner Jordan Napier, who ranked 6th nationally with 196 punt return yards and had one return for a touchdown.
