UNLV

There’s a difference between credit and confidence for me. He gets the credit when we suck for sucking, therefore he gets the credit for when we’re winning. Am I totally confident that he’s an outstanding head coach? No. Still a lot to prove. Has he surprised me the past 3 games? Somewhat. SJSU and NIU were both wins that I believe we should have won and we did. Air Force was a good team, not great, so at home I expected another win. Didn’t necessarily think we’d pull it off, but he did get them prepared to win that game, so good job by him. UNLV is a good team, it’s on the road, and historically under Sawvel or Bohl for that matter, we have not been good enough to win a game that actually means something. To me, this game is a pivotal moment for the Pokes to finally get over the mediocrity hump. If he can do that, my confidence just might go up another tick! Lots to prove on Saturday for the players and the coaches IMHO.
Well, I guess its just me. Sawful talks too much, he says the wrong things, he listens to too many people and then says, Bohl told me, Kenny Dillingham told me. It's ill-advised to name sources. He comes across as dumber than plastic. So yes, its on me - I don't like him, I have zero confidence in him and wish he would go away. He is not the future for Cowboy football.

As a coach, he makes it hard to root for him.

Despite his terrible overall record, all it takes is a couple wins for him to start chirping about how dumb our fans are for ever questioning the coaches.

He's our head coach and I want him to succeed, but he doesn't make it easy to get behind him.

Wyoming needs to control the clock and win the turnover battle to keep it close enough for a late FG or TD to be decisive. UNLV is likely to load the box until Wyoming proves it can move the ball by being able to complete at least mid -range passes. I am doubtful that the Sawvel/Bohl defense will be able to stop UNLV so it will be up to the offense to minimize UNLV's number of possessions by sustained drives.
this is my thinking too. dan mullen can and probably will coach circles around bohl and sawvel

Yes, he’s kind of a doof. That being said, if his doofiness improves week to week, I’ll take it. To me he talks like a defensive coordinator, not a head coach, but it has gotten a little bit better over time. So, even if he sounds like a complete idiot, if we’re winning, I don’t care. It just sounds and looks so much worse when we’re losing. If he wins, he can quote whoever he wants at this point. It will be monumental if they win in Vegas and I’ll be rooting for that no matter what. The players deserve it!
