Three Current and Future MWC Teams in the Bottom 10

Opinion: Why the new-look Pac-12 is still a power conference

After the dismantling of the Pac-12, some big names, including Oregon, Southern California and Arizona State, left the conference. What was once a historic league with fierce rivalries was reduced to just two teams: Washington State and Oregon State. WSU and OSU were expected to drop into the...

Now that's a bold, or delusional, perspective.

I don't think the 2 pac rejects are going to be the best conference mates. They went from whipping boy doormats to some eerie false sense of value and superiority.

In stages of grief, they are stuck in denial. Denial that they are nothing more than g6.

So, we are a shitty team in a shitty conference that is about to become even shittier. At least we will have a nice swimming pool and wrestling room.

Could that sentiment be based on the something like 76-124 record in conference play since being included in the MWC?

Even the sacred CB only managed a 37-41 in the MWC, but with him winning nearly half of the games won in MWC in 10 of the 27 years to date of conference play it felt like we had become a conference powerhouse.

Maybe .474 in conference play is enough to say we are doing just fine!

If Sawful wins the next 2 he will be .454 in conference play and right on track to be the next CB! Maybe not such a tall order except I am extremely skeptical Calhoun doesn’t put a pounding on the Pokes in lightening fashion.

I’ll go ahead and assume the bolded part of your post was sarcasm — because if not, your bar for “success” must be buried somewhere under War Memorial’s turf.

My point was pretty simple: if we win a lot, we’ll be fine. There’s no alternate universe where we’re “fine” without winning.

On the flip side, it doesn’t take much imagination to picture what things could look like if we ever won at a Boise-State-type clip — packed stadium, national relevance, people actually excited to follow the team again.

The formula isn’t complicated. We just haven’t come close to solving it in a long time.

I think everything will turn out well if we win. But we have to win

I was serious that the AD talked about the success of getting to bowl games like we were already on that Boise style win mode.

I have referenced this before, but several years ago (Glenn era) I was invited to forums on how to increase attendance and support where I emphasized winning and winning routinely in conference. Most of the dumbshit Wyoming fans could only come up with stuff like don’t have home games during hunting season, play late afternoon games so kids soccer in Cheyenne doesn’t interfere with games, start earlier so people can drive to Sheridan after the game and get home before dark.

The formula is simple - compete for the conference championship constantly and win it. Can anyone remember the AA in the early 2000’s when winning the conference?

The rah rah from University AD's around making some small bowl has never bothered me. Every school puts a positive spin on making a bowl game...what bothers me is the year on year mediocre or worse results. I do remember you telling me about those forums, those comments blow my mind.... must be very casual fans making those.

+1000 to memories of the AA from the early 2000's though.

It'll be a bumpy ride as usual and nothing will just get handed to us once these pac-stabbers are gone, it's the Wyoming way!!!
