## Week 6 Pac-12 Impact
Boise State's win over Fresno State and Oregon State's victory over San Diego State mark key Week 6 results.

## Mountain West Teams
Air Force, New Mexico, and North Dakota State are among the Mountain West teams that could finish 13-0 or 12-1.
## Boise State's Path
Boise State (5-1) is the only Pac-12 team capable of finishing 13-0 or 12-1, but a second loss could block their CFP path.
## CFP Scenario
A second loss for Boise State could become the optimal outcome for the Pac-12 if Group of Six results shift.
## Power Rankings
Boise State leads the Pac-12 with a 5-1 record after winning at Fresno State 38-31.
## Next Steps
The Pac-12 must navigate potential obstacles from outside teams to secure a CFP berth by early December.
## Key takeaway

Boise State's 5-1 record and potential 13-0 finish could block Pac-12 teams from College Football Playoff.
