In a word, yes. It's in Laramie. WY is on the rise. If we come out flat or uninspired, it will be a real contest. If I had to pick, I'd say BYU by 10, but I thought we'd play TCU tough

Give Wyoming credit...
Last year, they were 118th nationally in turnover margin (finished the season with 37 turnovers, 14 takeaways).
This year, they're somthing like 30th nationally in turnover margin so far (7 turnovers, 14 takeaways).

That's basically how Bronco righted Crowton's sinking ship in his first year as head coach.

Wyoming is a good team. They are well coached and play hard. Usually that translates into close games and wins. Don't be suprised if Wyoming keeps this thing within 1 score all the way to the end. utah's offense may be down but their defense is as good as it always is and Wyoming's freshmen QB gave them trouble for most of the game. I expect them to be able to move the ball and score on our defense. I don't think their defense can stop our offense though. I just hope all you that are predicting blowout don't come back here and do the usual complaining when the game turns out to be a very close hard fought game.

Only way we lose is if we turn it over 3 or more times. Otherwise, we score too much for Wyoming to hang.
