It's Utah State week....nothing else matters.

[Poke-proud]

Wyoming may have a hangover after the big upset win last week and Utah St. isn't as bad as their record. So it may end up being a close game.

With that said I hope Wyoming doesn't have a hangover after last week and we come out and kick their butt!

Would be horrible to lose this game after such a big win but also wouldn't surprise me. I think we will win though one way or another. Hopefully by quite a bit.

May be wrong, but I just don't see it. I believe Bohl understands that this could happen and has worked the week to prevent it. Hope I'm right.

Called it, Bohl had em ready, take away the third and this was a "blowout".

In what world is winning by 28 points NOT blowing someone out?

We could have won by 35, but we took a knee for the last two plays of the game.

We hang a nice L on Wells shelf to consider for the next week. Doubt he's learned any lessons, lets revisit this again next year in Logan. Turd-burger served piping hot for the Aggies.

Bohl has too much class to run it in at the end. Sure, teams make little runs during the course of a game. It was the second half, I'm sure aggies made adjustments, it was nice to see us make ours and shut them out in the 4th

Feels good to beat the fuck out of the Aggies

That is the problem with not moving with the times. No one cares about showing opposing coaches respect.

If you want top 25 votes you run the score up. It's plain and simple reverse the situation and they would have put as many points up on us a possible and so would every other team in the country.

Don't get me wrong I'm not saying it's the right thing to do but for college athletics it's the only thing to do like it or not.

Seven more points would not have gotten us more votes.

What does seven points have to do with anything?

Aren't you saying Bohl should've run up the score instead of kneeling on that last drive in order to get more votes?

 

[McPeachy]

Regardless of the win, the point difference, etc., the fact that UW went ultra-conservative in the 3rd quarter fucking sucked to watch as a fan. We let those mofo's back in the game with 3 unanswered TD's, instead of keeping our foot on the gas and pounding the shit out of them. Thank the football gods that Bohl got on the phone with Vigen and told him to get it going.

No I'm saying giving up 3 TD in less than 3 mins by coasting instead of keeping the foot down and not putting it in the end zone at the end of the game those things combined keep attention on other teams.

To be noticed you have to just keep your foot down for 4 full quarters.

I have tons of respect for Bohl and coaches that respect the opposing team but that's because I'm older and it's what I was raised around it's just not how things are done anymore.

OK, I disagree that the coaches were going easy on the Aggies in the 3rd quarter. And you said "run the score up." To me, that means offense, not defense. The defense stopping USU on those drives wouldn't equate to us running the score up.

I know people have their opinions about the runs up the middle, but I don't agree. Those are the same runs you saw throughout the rest of the game. They didn't change up the play calls on those drives; they just didn't work.

Did you watch the post game conference? Even players admitted they didn't keep their foot on the gas they coasted in the 3rd quarter.

It's the entire team that has to keep focus for the entire game. If that game ended 62-7 instead of 52-28 more people would have noticed it. Instead they noticed 55-0 and SDSU got more attention and more votes.

Like I said before it doesn't matter what you think or I think it only matters what people see and 55-0 draws more attention than 52-28 especially when that 55-0 is against a team with a better record.

Personally I believe Wyoming is rarely seen by non UW fans they only see the score so we have to make sure they see a big score and I really wish the team coaches and players alike would just hang 60-70 on a team just so more people would take notice.

That's fair, I can respect that stance. However, I think it may be changing.

I agree it is changing just really really slow, there are some media personalities that have taken notice like this one for instance.

One of my favorites is this article.

Group of 5 coach of the week: Wyoming's Craig Bohl

After Bohl went 6-18 in his first two seasons at Wyoming, some questioned whether he could cut it in the FBS after leading North Dakota State to three FCS national titles. Those doubts are gone as Bohl has Wyoming off to its best conference start (4-0) as a Mountain West member. The Cowboys upset No. 13 Boise State on Saturday night, snapping a 22-game losing streak against ranked opponents. Wyoming was 0-10 all time against Boise State, losing by an average of 26.3 points. The Pokes showed balanced offense and timely defense, scoring the go-ahead safety with 1:25 left. Afterward, Bohl disappeared amid the celebrating fans, the new king of Laramie.

Am I crazy for thinking that in public perception, winning at UNLV is more important than the games against SDSU and New Mexico? No one would fault us for losing against the Aztecs or Lobos, but a loss to the Rebels could be devastating to the national view of the program.

Honestly I think a loss to anyone other than SDSU would be quite detrimental to the perception of the program strength. We've already been written off as losing to SDSU and were predicted to lose to UNM.

We need to blow out UNLV and send a message that we're a force. If we lose to SDSU it's already expected but I think we need to blow out UNM as well.

But I would love to see us beat all 3 teams.

This stretch of games are pivotal for the pokes. I like our odds against a Southern California team in Laramie late in November.

If we lose to unlv we don't deserve to win the conference. It's really that simple.

New Mexico will be tough but they are fairly one dimensional which works in the pokes favor as that one dimension is running the ball.
