Re: The schedule wasn’t kind to the pokes this year

Boise State and Wyoming, two teams with pretty darn good defenses, albeit maybe a little overrated in the preseason. Difference between the two is the offenses are night and day going into the bye.

Re: Wofford

588 passing yards, 2 TDs, 2 INTs through 4 games. I'll wait a little longer before anointing TVW anything, but that's certainly not great.

Yeah, even with the poor start, I'm not concerned. Bohl smacks these option teams hard.

Wofford

Anyone know anything about them? I think they're a triple option team. Should be easy pickins, but I don't know much about them.

Re: The schedule wasn’t kind to the pokes this year

I am so tired of everyone's negative crap. Hell yes i am pissed that we lost, hell yes I'm pissed at how we have been losing, but I also realize who we have played . You really believe USU can put those numbers up on our defense???? I don't! I also don't believe we will be punchless against them ei...

Re: Rest of season..

I'm not feeling the 2016 comparisons. The early losses sucked, but Allen was very much showing off his special ability by then. TVW hasn't even reached game-manager status yet. Evans health is a key factor too. It's early, only three games in. Anything can happen. That said, the other teams try too....

Re: Love Bohl, but...

I mean, this is true on principle. They haven't been eliminated from anything. That said, they haven't exactly looked like they'll run roughshod through the MW. It's tough sledding to finish 8-4 in the regular season again.

Re: Love Bohl, but...

It's put up or shut up time. After Wofford, the BSU, UH, FSU stretch is as brutal as it gets when it comes to current Mountain West form. Buck up or brace for a 2-5 start.

Re: This defensive group is special

DL got stood up vs. WSU and Colden was picked on all afternoon. The DL knows they can be so much better, but Wazzu won't be the last team to attack Colden like that. There was no blueprint to breaking the Wyoming defense in 2017. There is one in 2018 if C.J. doesn't grow up quickly. I'm very curious...

Re: Missouri Game

What got lost in the offense's crap fest was that the DL struggled to get pressure on Wazzu's QB, a rather unexpected development. The offense being blah again won't be a stunner, but my hope is that the defense bounces back and reclaims that "dominant" title. Vigen stinking it up is par f...

Re: People need to relax!

This game was pretty reminiscent of the game at Nebraska in 2016. Competitive game early, but the depth of the Autonomous 5 program wins out in the end. I think that perspective is also important when looking forward to the rest of this season. All is not lost. We can still have a good season. I mo...

Re: Who makes these lines?

Vegas has to up their game after the Hawaii debacle of the last two weeks. CSU was -14 vs. UH, LOST by 9. Vegas double dipped and made Hawaii a double-digit dog at home, then Navy loses by 14 (and it wasn't really that close). They've been all over the place the first few weeks.

Re: People need to relax!

It's okay for people to criticize. Nobody wants Bohl to go away. Long-time Wyoming fans know what the football gods did to the Pokes when *some* fans thought Wyoming had outgrown Tiller (the vaunted Koenning era was not far off). It's just frustrating to see the team fold like that. Geezus, I knew W...

Re: Wazzu predictions, were a day away!

IIRC, there was one throw slightly behind a receiver that tipped off their hands and was interceptable, but no Aggies got within two yards of the ball. That was the only dangerous pass I recall from TVW. Nothing most QBs don't go through every game.

Re: Wazzu predictions, were a day away!

Been a Poke fan too long to share that optimism at this point. Had my optimism dashed too many times. This is pretty much exactly how I feel. I have a really hard time believing we'll be able to dominate them at the line of scrimmage. I could see our defense holding them to under 30 points, but off...

20-10 Pokes. Offense does enough but isn't perfect, defense embarrasses a green Wazzu offense.

Re: WYO vs.NMS

Two 100 yard rushers for the Gophers. Apparently that's gonna be a thing for the Aggies this year.

Fresno @ Minnesota is going to be an interesting game.
