Favorite Glenn and DC moments.

I make this post in anticipation of Wyoming football going to new levels, and not having more of the same.

And by more of the same, I mean, overall a below average team, with the occasional good moments.

Favorite Glenn moments:
Vegas Bowl- Beating UCLA
Listening to the Ole Miss game with my grandpa hearing Javon Bouknight break those tackles and score a TD
Flipping Whittingham off.

Other things I liked about Glenn: Hard nose, tough defense, ability to take down the teams we shouldn't (Ole Miss, Tennessee)

Favorite DC moments:
NM Bowl- Beating Fresno St.
ACS stiff arming that CSU d-back for the 49 yard TD, getting us the Boot and becoming bowl eligible
Howdy Doody

Things I enjoyed from DC: Explosive offense at times. Brett Smith.

Hopefully in 5 years we can talk about how we won MWC Titles, and winning MULTIPLE bowl games with Bohl, instead of talking about the 1 bowl win, and the occasional awesome play.

What are some of your favorite Glenn and DC moments?
Am I missing some good ones?

You mean ACS freshman year?
That was the game where we were down like 21 and ACS led a come back.

Bretts freshman year was when Wyo took that huge lead into halftime and almost blew it.

Both scores ended 30-27 in San Diego with Wyo winning.

Marsh was awesome to watch, he was when I really started paying attention to UW sports, him and D-Mo
 
Glenn:

Vegas Bowl- my first in-Person bowl game. A great time of momentum and publicity for the program
Utah 2006- took the Utes behind the woodshed. 31-0 when it mattered (Utah got 15 garbage time points late)
Virginia 2007-23-3 win over ACC team in the War and it wasn't that close. Out gained them 470 to 100 or so. Coming off a 5-3, 6-6 season in 2006 that featured a couple of heartbreaking close losses (including at UVA by 1) along with some impressive performances (see above), it seemed like the Pokes had turned a corner and would be contenders in a tough MWC which was garnering national respect.


DC:

NM Bowl- Fantastic finish.
Border Wars 2009-2012- 4 in a row

ETA: God damn this was a depressing exercise. There were some real moments of excitement and hope with both coaches. Hard to believe the way it ended for both.
 
Can't comment on Glenn, I converted to my Poke obsession right after his last year as that was when I was really deciding to go to school here. For DC my favorite would be the 44-0 beat down of the Sheep. Also the 09 New Mexico bowl was pretty special.
 
That year that DC/Gregg Brandon converted to the triple-option spread offense for the AFA game. I thought we had that game.....
 
Joe Glenn had the greatest personality of any coach. He was also the coach during my college years so he'll always have a special place.
-Beating UCLA in the Vegas Bowl
-Beating Ole Miss twice
-Beating Tennessee
-Beating CSU in 2003 & 2006
-Powder River Let er Buck

I wouldn't call the DC era a compete failure. We went to 2 bowls and he brought some good QB's in.
-Beating CSU 4 times straight
-2009 NM Bowl
- 2011 season
-Bringing in Nike uniforms
 
Glenn: Chris Stutzreim coming up with a 3rd and long pass completion to seal the win over Tennessee. Sending out Joe Glenn in his final and rough year with a win at Tennessee!

DC: Josh Biezuns coming off the edge to tackle Mathews multiple times in the backfield as Wyoming held on 4 straight plays from the 1...giving Wyoming the New Mexico Bowl victory over Fresno State in DC's first season.

haha. I thought the same thing. Honestly, before even seeing this post, I thought, BirdGate and HowdyDoodyGate were what I remember the most. That is sad actually.

I was at the NM Bowl when we shut down Ryan Matthews three straight plays. That was pretty cool.
