#25 Wyoming at Fresno

I can't believe this game.
What an absurd way to win our 3rd road game in the MWC.

People want to talk about who has a clear path to the MWC Championship but as of now there is no clear front runner, just teams with a little better positioning than others. SDSU, WYO, and NM are sitting pretty, but there are a LOT of teams right behind. One bad week and it all comes crashing down.

First win at Fresno! NICE!
 
6-game winning streak is a possibility. Won't be easy, but THIS needs to be the stretch where Wyoming solidifies itself as a MW contender. Never seen a champion that didn't make a run at some point.

@Fresno W
New Mexico
@Utah State
Nevada
Colorado State

Who is ahead based on the Brandenburg standings system?

+1 for a road win
0 for road loss or home win
-1 for a home loss.

For example we are at +1 for the conference season because the SDSU home loss offset one of our road wins. We get zero points for holding home court versus SJSU. (We would also get zero points if we had beat SDSU in Laramie.)

15 - 26 at the free throw line.....22.7% from 3. Kids need to work on shooting for sure. And 17 turnovers....

Yeah, cause we always shoot so bad.
Hankerson had a selfish moment, cause it sounded like Grabau was calling for the ball during those missed Fts.
Nance rarely misses two in a row.
On the flip side: Nance convincing double/ double as well as Cooke!! Great game by our Bigs! And Adams came up clutch several times!

Lots of work to do, but a lot of fun!
Forget that Fresno is 9-10... This was a battle for 1st place at their place and we pulled it out!
GO POKES!!!

We're at +2: road wins at the Fort, Joser, and Fresno and a home loss to SDSU.

We're still in first in the Brandy standings.

So Hank should not even touch the ball and then he wins the game. Got it

3OT was a killer for FRESNO

Actually he shouldn't touch the ball when he is going to be put on the free throw line. Glad he hit that 3 though but that is what he does.

Wyoming should win all of those games actually. None of them will be tougher than the SDSU or the Fresno road game. New Mexico will be tough at the pit but they won't be tough in Laramie. Wyoming should handle them at home easy.

Completely agree. No trip ups, this should be the win-builder a team aspiring to be in the tourney needs. Sitting at 21-3 with @SDSU, SJSU, @UNR, FRES, @UNLV, USU, @UNM to go would be a great spot for this team.

I don't know. Utah state is good at home, and AFA, no matter how bad they are always gives everybody fits down in Clune... If we play like we should we will get through this, but there is not one gimmie in this conf. Everybody is tough.

We haven't beat the Lobos in years. They'll be tough anywhere, I don't care who they lost.

Hank should not touch the ball when we are in a situation where they are gonna intentional foul. That's why that was posted. Got it??

Agree. If we can get the turnovers cleaned up we should win these games though so lets hope they get that issue fixed.
