2027 Border War

[Steamboat]

I think Reeves is making the majority of the decisions now.

Why do you think that? Good if he is, but what is your source?

Bruman's contract is up in June and I don't think there is any indication that will be renewed. Reeves has stated over and over that athletics will help drive the University so why would you let the wet napkin that has been Burman make any decisions that he will have no responsibility for?

Hope you're right

It is all record and weather dependent. If the NM game is for the conference title or it is nice daytime game with 50+ degree weather for UConn , 18-20 K would not be out of the question. If things go the way of last year's team, then 12K is far more likely.

I don’t think Wyoming fans will care much whether New Mexico might be playing for a conference title and would be somewhat surprised if UNM travels too well.

But hey I guess we can hold out hope that UNM will rally behind their team and come in droves so we can offload our tickets and actually get money for them.

Oh wait…surely you weren’t talking about Wyoming playing for a conference title.

Decent in my book will be at 5 or more wins.

5 wins in this joke of a conference is not decent in my book. The MAC is better. CUSA is better. Big Sky and Missouri Valley are likely better.

That said - I don’t see us getting that many as it stands.

Lots of calls by CSU fans to try and schedule Colorado that day on X.

Yeah. I’m seeing CSU wants that 7th home game. I doubt Border war will happen. Unless we go there again, which Burman will probably do because he has rocks for brains

I was. I remember the SDSU v. UW title game in 2016. It was 18 degrees at kickoff and 24K+ were there. I believe if by some miracle UW actually has a chance to win the MWC title then the last 2 games have a chance to be well attended.

I am not counting on that happening.

For what its worth...
Number of schools ranked outside of ESPN's FPI top 100
AAC 4 of 14
CUSA 9 of 10
MAC 11 of 14
MWC 5 of 10
PAC 1 of 8
SBC 8 or 14

C-USA IS bad.

yeah I think the MWC is better top to bottom that the CUSA, MAC and its close with the sun belt who really don't have a dominate team anymore

Wow, that's really an eye opener.

With how bad this new MWC is, it's hard to believe there are worse conferences out there. NIL has really widened the gap between P4 and G5 teams significantly.
