Oh come on. All the Tech folks that traveled to the game that I encountered (and there were a bunch) were all courteous. They thought their team would come in and run over us (so what…a lot of the posters on this board predicted the same). They were shell shocked but they certainly weren’t a$$holes.WyoSapper wrote: ↑Sun Sep 03, 2023 6:59 pm What I find most fascinating is that all those sunshine pumping, friendly, “Texas charm” folks are nowhere to be seen. I was impressed with how nice the Tech fans were that I visited with prior to the game. But now? Crickets. If you go to their boards….which I should t have, you are overwhelmed by the sense of entitlement and incredulity that Wyoming even had a chance. I almost want to lump any fan from Texas as a close second to BYU in their obnoxious superiority complex.
With the massive amounts of money they pump into their program and through NIL (and we are talking massive NIL amounts), they should be able to beat us. But you know what, we have a tough team full of guys that don’t give a crap of what should be and they went out and played their hearts out. Say what you want about Bohl, but no Bohl team at Wyoming has ever quit.
Long story short - Tech has a good fanbase. Do they have unrealistic expectations? yes. Do they waste a bunch of money through NIL? Yes. Are they comparable to BYU? Not in the slightest.
