The best at what he does this year.
An offense that wants to punch opponents in the mouth like the Wyoming Cowboys do never amounts to much without a strong offensive line to lead the way, which is why the next player on our countdown of the conference’s top athletes is especially impactful.
Keegan Cryder topped his Freshman All-American campaign in 2018 with an even better one in 2019. He was one of two Pokes linemen to start every game, allowing just one sack and accruing only one penalty in over 800 snaps at center to earn a spot on the all-conference second team.
Still just a junior, Cryder is now the tip of the spear for one of the Mountain West’s deepest units anywhere. For an offense ready to run the ball right at their foes, his contributions may not be easy to notice but will go a long way toward helping Wyoming compete for a division crown.
On a play that began the incredible upset of @MizzouFootball, @wyo_football, OC 73 Keegan Cryder (w/a great chip/combo by LG 69 Abojei) and RB 6 Xazavian Vallady show why they’re two of the best returning at their positions in the @MountainWest. pic.twitter.com/NeWlm5xlLn
