Re: at Fresno

A road win is always nice. But Fresno st. looks like a team that's ready for the season to be over. If we can get them down early in Vegas, resistance might be very low.

Re: Fresno - twice in a row

It's amazing to me that had we beat csewe last week, we would be tied with them in the conference standings today. I'm guessing we win in Fresno. They have beaten air force 2x and SJS 2x. It's a long way back to the Jerry Tarkanian days. We've lost to good teams but not the dregs of the conference. ...

Re: Border War, down there

Griffin and Kot were both 2-11 from the field. Powell didn't score a point. We've lost 7 of 8 and I've been a big defender of Linder but I'm starting to lose faith. If Kogenets sees a single minute on the court, it makes me wonder how bad everyone else on the bench must be because he is utterly wort...

Re: UNLV

A lot more fun to watch than some of the recent blowouts It certainly had more drama at the end. But I'd argue the 1st half might have been the worst half of bb we've played this year. Turnovers, missing wide open shots and not even getting 20 points in the first half. If Vegas hadn't been so inept...

Re: UNLV

Watching on tv.....just nothing but empty seats and Wyo. with another uninspiring performance. Can Linder make it to next year? I thought it was a foregone conclusion that he would but I'm starting to wonder.

Re: Cowgirl freshman runs a fast mile

Salma won the women's mile today in the MW championship. She came back less than 2 hours later and finished 2nd in the women's 3k, breaking the school record at the same time. In sprints and middle distance, which was every running event that had a qualifying heat on Friday, Elbadra was the only run...

Re: Linder got tossed.

I didn't see the players deflate when Linder went out. It didn't really help the cause, but it sure didn't cost us the game. Getting on the officials clearly works in the MWC. I'm watching CSU at NM right now and Medved and Petino are all over them. Linder isn't special in that regard. Whether the ...

Re: Linder got tossed.

The loss of Ike hurt us - no doubt. It hurt us badly. I don't know that we are ever going to compete with that kind of cash for our top-flight players. That said, it might help, just a smidge, if our coach had a bit better rapport with his players. I know Maldo and Wenzel have defended him...but no...

Re: Linder got tossed.

If Ike got 500k from Gonzaga, then I don't think Bohl had to contend with anything like that. The one physical stud we had on offense, Neyor, left for big money. Maybe we don't have to deal with it as much in football because most of our players are not going to make a major impact on a P5 team. If ...

He played a little. It seems like this is his 7th or 8th year.

Re: Attendance

Why not massively discount new season tickets to residents within 100 miles? Try something, anything to breathe new life into this program. Children get in free. Anything to entice people to set foot into the building Perhaps. But I'm amazed at how many kids at Wyo. football or basketball games spe...

Re: USU

It is hard to win when we are so utterly and thoroughly outmatched down low. We get the ball down low and get stuffed. We get it inside and just get dominated. No guards or big men have the strength or athleticism to score down low. Tough to win like that That's it in a nutshell. They have multiple...

Re: Cowgirl freshman runs a fast mile

I don’t follow track closely. But how does BYU end up with 8 runners (including a Cheyenne girl) who run roughly the same time? Byu has a few advantages. First, I think the 2 year mission gives them an unfair advantage. Byu is a real power in track (distance and not sprinting) and cross country. 2 ...

Cowgirl freshman runs a fast mile

Salma Elbadra ran a 4:35 mile today at the Husky Invite. in Seattle. She is a freshman from Morocco. In her first race about a month ago, she broke the Wyoming mile record by running 4:37. It would be interesting to know how a Moroccan girl wound up at Wyoming. But it's clear she has national class ...

Re: Pokes 5-3 now

We had a cute little run but blasted by UNLV and Lobos is not good NM got a lot of help from the refs. But, they couldn’t miss a 3. I don’t what their 3 point shooting % was, had to be pretty high. There was nothing wrong with the officiating. They shot only ok from 3. They had wide open looks when...

Re: UNLV

The entire team shot miserably but Kot was 0-8 from 3. Wenzel was not much better. It looked like UNLV was determined not to let Griffin get any open looks. Frankly, that would be my strategy against Wyoming. Make Kot and Wenzel beat you. And every time Walters got the ball, he was double teamed. I ...

Re: AF

What impressed me was there was no let down from the sheep game. Some of those guys played more than 40 minutes Saturday and then they had to chase those Air force players around in that motion offense. The defense was much better in the second half and I can't remember the last time we went on a 16...

Re: AF

I must admit that I'm pleasantly surprised how the conference play has been going. I never would have guessed we would be 5-3. Dare I say that we have a real chance at Vegas on Saturday. it would be a huge win, if we could get it.

The entire game is archived on the MW website. I went back and watched the last 4 minutes and the OT. Those babies on the sheep board are whining about the officials. We got 2 horrible Flagrant 1 calls. Go watch the last 70 seconds. We didn't get one call. They missed free throws and couldn't get a ...
