  1. Coach Bohl's Postgame Press Conference:
  2. I would say they are having watched Oregon live last week. UC Davis ran right at Oregon. Great. UC Davis visits Laramie next week...
  3. Same to you. Here's wishing good luck to the Huskers from here on out. Man, the wheels fell off in the fourth. Oh well, things to build on. Thanks for the hospitality!

  6. Coach Bohl mentioned that Allen got more comfortable as the game went on. He's a very focused and competitive young man, A lot like Brett Smith with a canon for an arm.

  9. The horse is called Steamboat. Clayton Danks, a Nebraska native, is believed by some to be the cowboy riding the horse. Here's the Wikipedia page: Click Here Here's UW's explanation of the famed logo: Click Here Here's the Wyoming Secretary of State's explanation: Click Here

  12. Well, I suppose. I live in Virginia and won't get out to God's Country until Homecoming for the Air Force game on Oct. 8th. I thought you were from out there in Medicine Bow Raised in Wyoming. Graduate of UW. Now living in Northern Virginia after career in Army and FEMA. Living the retired life now.
  13. Wyoming is also the place that Devaney boarded the train to come to Nebraska. Yeah we still need to get revenge for that. He still holds the highest winning percentage all time of all Wyoming coaches.

  16. Deja vu... That's exactly what the Husky fans said. Weird.
  17. The past is NOT prologue when it comes to this team. This year's Wyoming team is head and shoulders above of last year's team. Last year's team had 17 true freshmen starters and now they come into this year with a lot more experience and confidence. The quarterback, Josh Allen, got hurt 13 plays into his first game last year. Last year was a painful learning experience for all concerned. Any Wyoming fan will tell you this is a much improved team. Wyoming played toe-to-toe with NIU and actually had the Huskies beat 27-20 with a 1:43 left in the game. A blown coverage let the Dogs tie it and put the game into overtime. Much to the Cowboys credit they fought back and eventually Allen was able to scramble away from pressure to dive into the end zone for the win. So, what does that mean for this game? Who knows? I think Wyoming is better than Fresno. Josh Allen has a much better arm than Brett Smith and is just as mobile for a 6-5, 225 pound quarterback. Wyoming has a pair of great senior receivers in Tanner Gentry (6-2, 210) and Jake Maulhardt (6-6, 230). Senior tight end Jacob Hollister (6-4, 239) reminds me a lot of former Wyoming great (and Nebraska native) Jay Novacek. And there's junior running back Brian Hill (6-1, 219) who is destined to be the greatest running back in Wyoming history. He averages nearly a 100 yards per game and is just over 400 yards from holding the all-time career record. Bottom line, I think the Cowboys will beat the 24 point spread and give the Huskers a game. Given some breaks, I think they could even win it. As they say...we shall see.
  18. For those interested, here's a Youtube of the NIU vs. Wyoming game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTaADms-dXM
  19. Wyoming defeated Idaho 42-10 in week 2 and beat Northern Colorado 35-7 in week 3. Next up is a roadie to the Air Force Academy and the "Howdy Doody Bowl".
  20. This will be interesting for comparison purposes. Wyoming plays Texas State on the road on Sept. 28th...not that the transitive property applies.
  21. Wyoming had only 564 yards total offense. The Pokes started slow with no scores in the first quarter.
  22. FINAL WY 42, ID 10 Reserves allowed spuds to score
