Biggest bowl blowout win EVER!!!! Biggest prior was the 1950 Gator Bowl vs. Washington & Lee, 20-7.

MOST points scored by Wyoming in a bowl...Biggest previous...35 points in the 2009 New Mexico Bowl (vs. Fresno State 35-28 W/ot.

Speaking of that 2009 NM Bowl win, this win tonight is the first since the 2009 game stopping a two game bowl losing streak.

We lost last year's bowl game. I won't mention the "teams" name.

It was probably a record for getting in the red zone and settling for 3 instead of 6.

That run offense got worse as the night went on.

Back-to-back 8-win seasons for first time since 1987-1988, which was also the last time we went to back-to-back bowl games.
