BTW< this was the first and LAST time Wyoming won the conference title at home!!!! Still pissed about our 2016 loss to SDSU for the MW title!!!!
 
The video had some great highlights for us including highlights of the Pokes embarrassing BYU on ESPN Thursday (Sept. 1, 1988).

I was at that one, too! It was insane.

One of the thing the video reminded me, is that we weren't a pass-only team. There were a lot of great running plays.

I was at both games.

I was also at the 1987 game v; OSU where everyone thought Thurman Thomas was supposed to be their best player. I remember telling my friend Mike that I thought OSU's second teamer was better than Thomas as we watched the game. The next year Barry Sanders proved it to the world.

I went to the OSU game with my folks. My mom pointed out that it was a big deal they had Thurman Thomas, and it was a great win for us.

We lost to Okie State in 1987 with they had both Thurman and Barry, 34-27. Our only win against the southern Pokes was in 1995, 45-25.
