Of course. We took Shyatt back and look how that worked out. No sense in holding a grudge when someone can help you win.

Re: Jay Sawvel named head coach

I'm very disappointed in this hire. First, was Sawvel on anyone's list to be hired away as a head coach or DC anywhere else? So what was the hurry? Secondly, we've rehashed this many times. But the defense wasn't all that great this year and the offense needs a complete make over. Our offense was 11...

Re: We're back in the Arizona Bowl

We are 2 point underdogs in the Arizona bowl. Assuming everyone on our side plays, I will be betting us in this game. We were down to our 5th string running back last year and still damn near won.
MAC is not a very impressive conference.

Re: MW All 25 Season Teams

I looked at the MWC website and it says selections were made by the "Mountain West 25th Season Committee". It says that committee is made up of "members" from all 11 full-time institutions, but does not list any names. I would not have put Josh Allen on that list. Josh has a lot...

Now. He missed every kick the second half of the season except for a 30 yarder. And a new punter is a given. I thought the current guy is a senior. He got the quietest cheer on senior day.

Re: I feel for Nevada

I assume most of the posters on this board have competed at some sport in the past or currently. Maybe you make a big change in your golf swing to improve. Whatever. There comes a point when you know where you are isn't going to get better without a big change. That's where we are. We tied for 4th ...

Re: I feel for Nevada

I have been a very strong proponent of moving on from Bohl - especially following the debacles against UNLV, Boize, and AFA. The field goal attempt in the 4th quarter against UNLV was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. It typified the Bohl experience. I think that we can be lulled back i...

Re: Extend Bohl!

As usual, we beat up the bad teams and even beat the mediocre teams. But I don't want to extend Bohl unless it's for decorative purposes only. Ten years and not one conference championship and only 1 appearance in a conference championship game. It's never going to happen with him. Let him have 1 la...

Re: Wouldn’t it be great to see BYU sit at home

On an even happier note: It looks like the sheep are going down to Hawaii. I took Hawaii on the money line and a loss means csewe will not be bowl eligible. It doesn't get much better than this.

Re: Bowl Game

We are officially on to the bowl game. Although unlikely, I hope we can get a non-MWC bowl in a Texas or Florida location. My money is on the Hawaii Bowl for Christmas Eve. Personally and for MWC bowls, I’m hoping for the New Mexico Bowl (it is convenient and a good time). I'm with ya. I don't have...

Re: Wyoming at Nevada

11 is a lot of points again. But I was wrong about Hawaii covering the 13.5 . Glad i did not place a bet. Think I will sit this one out again. The guys who set the line are good at what they do. Fresno st. was a massive favorite against New Mexico and lost outright. New Mexico st. was a 20 pt dog a...

Wyoming at Nevada

All 4 road losses to teams with winning records. Nevada 2-9 and certainly the worst conference team we face this year. Game at 7 p.m. with temp. probably around freezing. There will probably be more players on the sidelines than fans in the stands. We are 11 point favorites. I was pleasantly surpris...

Re: Furman

I liked our poise down the stretch. Powell really defends the paint and we have 2 guards that can penetrate and bury the 3. It was nice to see Wenzel hit a big shot at the end. I like the way this team defends. I'm cautiously optimistic.

Re: Furman

Sam Griffin is a one man wrecking crew. Kot shoots too much, and our bigs are no post up threats. Almost all the points are from Kot, Wenzel, and Griffin. Powell is a great defender and rebounder. As I post this, we are up 10 with 7 minutes to go. It looks like we have a reasonably competitive team ...

Re: Oliver Faubert

A lot of good players in Canada. And the big men usually have good ball handling skills. Hopefully, last year was a weird aberration and Linder will get things back on track. Will be watching us play Furman at 8:30 tomorrow morning on ESPNU.

This is the first time I've watched this year's team. Sam Griffin is money. If we cut down on the turnovers, we will a tough out for most MW teams this year.

Re: Hawaii +13.5

Not my favorite game to wager on this weekend by any means. I do think this is a pretty good spot for Wyoming here though. Wyoming’s last 3 losses have all been on the road against teams that are pretty decent this year and we all know Bohl isn’t good on the road. Different story at home though. Wy...

Re: Hawaii +13.5

Vegas isn’t dumb. There must be some matchup reason they see the game with this kind of spread. However, I predict the line will be about -10.5 by game time. But there are few FCS teams where Wyoming should be a 2 TD favorite given Bohl’s style of play. This is very strange. We played on friday. Th...

Re: Hawaii +13.5

Hawaii +430 on the money line. After last week's performance, I think it's questionable we even win the game.
