BOISE, Idaho – Following its victory in the 2019 Mountain West Football Championship Game, the 19th-ranked Boise State football team will play in the Mitsubishi Motors Las Vegas Bowl, the Broncos' 18th-consecutive bowl selection.
Boise State will square off against Washington in the 28th edition of the game, which is set for Dec. 21 (Saturday). This will be the final Las Vegas Bowl played at Sam Boyd Stadium, and kickoff is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. (MT). The game will be nationally televised on ABC.
The Broncos' bowl streak is tied for the fifth-longest in the country with Wisconsin, and trails only Virginia Tech (27), Georgia (23), Oklahoma (21) and LSU (20).
Washington went 7-5 in 2019, including a 4-5 mark in the Pac-12. The Broncos and Huskies previously met in the 2012 MAACO Bowl Las Vegas, with 20th-ranked Boise State securing a 28-26 victory.

The Broncos are in the midst of their 22nd-straight season with a winning record, the longest active streak in the country, the 15th-longest in NCAA history and the longest by a Group of Five school all-time. Boise State also took over as the winningest program in NCAA history earlier this season (.731), with Ohio State (.730) and Michigan (.729) ranking second and third, respectively.
