Football Schedule FINALLY Released

Another note on Hawaii... I believed they travel to Army a couple weeks before the game in Laramie. That's a long trip and then another one to Wyoming. Going to be tough on them!

Its Navy. And it won't matter one way or the either. This Warrior team is dreadful....I haven't ruled out 2-10 or worse. The team could easily start 0-6. By the time that game comes around, I fear this team will have little motivation.

Plus they have a stubborn mule for a HC. He kept a shitty QB (transfer from Duke) in as a starter last year. The kid was the exact opposite of Smith. Holy Sweet Jesus, he was horrible!!!!!

I'm not joking. The kid was bad.
 
8/31 @ Nebraska- Loss Not in the same world as this program
9/7 vs. IdahoWin New Coach at Idaho-same losing tradition
9/14 vs. Northern ColoradoWin More dangerous than you think..they were on a tear at the end of last season
9/21 @ Air Force LossA fine Howdy Doody. Falcon O creates mismatches. Wyoming D obliges.Tough to win in the Springs
9/28 @ Texas StateLoss Cowboys drop close away game to a rising program. Franchione might even get to a bowl in 14
10/5 BYE
10/12 vs. New Mexico (probably homecoming)Win New Mexico loses 23 seniors from a crappy squad-rebuilding is an understatement
10/19 vs. Colorado StateWin Because no matter what my head says, my heart would never allow me to predict anything else
10/26 @ San Jose StateLoss New coach from SD inherits a loaded team by the bay.
11/2 BYE
11/7 vs. Fresno StateLoss Bulldogs will play in another bowl this year.The only bowl team to play in Laradise this year.
11/16 @ Boise StateLoss Cowboys will be outclassed and outgunned.
11/23 vs. Hawai'iWinWarriors will be outclassed and outgunned
11/30 @ Utah StateLoss Aggies have a new coach, and return a tough team. Pokes will be manhandled.

so put me down at 5-7.

There is no way the Pokes should lose to New Mexico, Idaho,or Hawai'i.
They should beat N Colo, but had better not overlook them. Realistically, they could lose to Colo State as well.
So Wyofishing case scenario-3-9.

Pokes might get by Franchione this year-depends on whose JC class is better...and San Jose state has a new coach-he has a loaded team, but maybe he screws the pooch...and perhaps the ghost of Howdy Doody rises up and grants DC a miracle on the mountain....
Beaverpoke case scenario-we go to a bowl at 8-4

Not happening this year. Pokes whip Neb, Boise, Fresno, USU...(sounds good though...doesn't it)
 
Northern Colorado is one of the worst programs in the Big Sky.. last year was their most successful season since becoming an FCS program. Pokes should handle them easily.

The USU game could go either way I see us either 8-4 or 9-3.

I agree. People forget we lost 4 close games last year because we didnt' have Brett Smith or an experienced backup. Guess what, we do this year. Thompson nearly beat AFA by himself....this year he could . I see USU as a toss up only because it is only the road. Same with SJSU. Both lost the only successful coaches they've had in decades. It will make a difference. We beat Fresno because they have never won in Laramie.

9-3 or 10-2.

Go Pokes!!

I think the Pokes are 8-4. Fresno coming to Laramie will be interesting and really that and the SJSU game are the difference between 8-4 or 10-2. That game against USU from 2011 still gives me nightmares.
 
This is has been Wyoming football the entire CDC era.......when they win its close, and when they lose its close (for the most part excluding elite teams and terrible OOC games).....it will come down to the small things. Turnovers, injuries, O-Line/D-Line progress (or lack thereof). Wyoming could go anywhere from 4-8 to 9-3 in my mind.

Typically we get a mixed bag and not one full of the other (2011, loss to USU by 49, somehow beats SDSU/AFA on the road). I expect mixed results this year. Maybe a tough loss (Air Force?) along with an unexpected win (Fresno)?

I completely agree with that J-Rod. I predict 8-4 or 9-3 simply because I think we are a deeper team and I feel like with all those close games we have had as we are building this program, one of these years could be a breakout that you see from teams that are in similar spots as we have over these years.
 
These are my least favorite threads. I don't give a fuck who we r playing, we can win or lose. We lost to UNM that one year, almost lost to weber st. And SUU so nothing will or can surprise me
 
Catching teams at the right time is crucial. I like getting Nebraska first but hate getting Air Force in September.

It will however be nice weather and a good chance to catch a Pokes road game.

I bet we blow AFA out after last season. Thompson almost beat them, Brett Smith will destroy them.
AFA fans are gonna be pumped about Howdy Doody coming to town but it is gonna be bad for them.

Wyoming didn't blowout anyone last year. Winning? Of course that can happen....but calling for a curb-stomping in Colorado Springs is far-fetched at best....
 
What I think.


8/31 @ Nebraska. . . .Asswhooping loss
9/7 vs. Idaho..........W
9/14 vs. Northern Colorado.....W
9/21 @ Air Force......W
9/28 @ Texas State......W

11/16 @ Boise State..........L

They beat CSU in close to blow out fashion...

Why the fuck aren't we playing the sheep for the last game of the year?
Because no one goes whether it's in Laramie or FoCo. Thanksgiving weekend games have always sucked attendance-wise.

Maybe it would be wise if Wyoming Atheletics did some sort of fancy tradition for thanksgiving? CJC cook up some big turkeys, get some parades going. Some beer flowing. Watch some sports on a big screen in the AA...

I agree - but dear god Wyoming & AFA games are some of the lowest scoring games in history (it seems).

What was it, 3 years ago, it was almost 0-0 at halftime? It will be interesting to see how we defend the triple option without English around.

You forget the 1988 classic - 48-45 in Colorado Springs.
