With one conference down, we’re now off to the Mountain West for the next two days.

A reminder: Action Network contacted each of the 133 FBS head coaches and asked the following question: Who is your favorite musical artist or group? Each coach was allowed to only provide one answer.

Wednesday's Mountain West Hint

We move to the Mountain West today featuring Air Force’s Troy Calhoun, Boise State’s Andy Avalos, Colorado State’s Jay Norvell, Fresno State’s Jeff Tedford, Hawaii’s Timmy Chang and Nevada’s Ken Wilson.

Today’s hints: A few years ago, I asked Norvell and Tedford for their favorite groups. Norvell went with Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, and Tedford chose Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band.

This time, one of them changed to a different choice, whole the other kept their previous selection from a few years ago. So, I’m basically giving you one correct answer. You just have to guess which one.

Another hint: no coaches picked the same artist.

Coach Match Instructions

To guess, click the music artist you think matches each coach from left to right. Some coaches might have the same answer, so you can pick the same artist for multiple coaches. When you have selected an artist for each coach, hit submit. A green box means that artist is correct, a yellow box means that artist was selected by another coach and a gray box means no coach picked this artist.

After completion of Coach Match, click the "share on Twitter" button. One individual daily will be randomly selected for some free Action Network gear if (a) you tweeted your response and (b) you are following @ActionNetworkHQ and @Brett_McMurphy on Twitter.

For each day’s Coach Match, I will provide a hint to hopefully make it a little easier to solve. We will post a new Coach Match daily at 9 a.m. ET, so check back every day.

Guess each coach's favorite artist or band!
