the quote that jumps out at me....
"Wyoming talked trash all week leading up to a pre-game warm-up squabble that was aired on ESPN as the game kicked off."

Right, it was us that was saying we were too good to be in this bowl and that we were disappointed in the opponent. :willybs:

Have you ever seen such poor losers?

Remember Steve Cameron's aricle before the game? Check out his post game column:

It was awfully nice of Fresno to let ACS be the hero, wasn't it?

And very quietly at that?

For my part, I thought (and always had this perception) that FSU was a thug school. From the hit out of bounds, to the taunting and umpteen personal fouls - I'd say they lived up to the hype. They are cheap and dirty - and that is only the cheerleading squad (TIC).

In terms of them "letting" ACS be a hero - thanks for that. I love how they spin it it say that Wyoming had to have all of these breaks and still didn't deserve to win...in a game where they were 11 point underdogs? Fact is, ACS and the Pokes sweat more class and more heart into their socks than FSU could generate in a month of Saturdays. We won, no matter how you slice it. Poor losers I say.

Yep. Wyoming wins EVERY statistical category. Looks like the best team won.

Watched a New Mexico news cast after the game. They were replaying a post game interview with some defensive guy from Fresno who said ".......I'm looking forward to next year, I'm not going to take any more questions about this game, I'll talk all you want about next season....". The sportscaster just says "Man, poor loser" and moves on to the next clip.

Amazing what a few extra weeks of practice, a good HC, and a team with a boatload of heart can do.

Brutal schedule next season, but I think ACS carries us again to a winning record.

EDIT
PS: Yoda, y'all played well. :whistle:
