Game Recap: #25 Colorado 56, Wyoming 41

Second-half runs by the Buffs bury the Cowboys

Poor shooting and turnovers plague the Cowboys in Sin City

Hunter Maldonado continues to carry the brunt of the Wyoming offense, but his 14-point effort wasn’t enough on Sunday night, as the Cowboys fell 56-41 to regional rival, #25 Colorado.

Tyler Bey was the main man for the Buffaloes, scoring 11 points and pulling down a career-high 19 rebounds. D’Shawn Schwartz led Colorado in scoring with 12, while Evan Battey nearly registered a double-double with nine points and 13 rebounds.

After Maldonado, Wyoming’s leading scorer was Greg Milton III with seven points, while Trevon Taylor and Jake Hendricks each scored six. The Cowboys’ anemic offense was hamstrung by poor shooting (32%) and turnovers (19) throughout the game.

Despite the backdrop of playing in The Entertainment Capital of the World, this game failed to deliver many of the thrills that its host city is known for.

It was an ugly, low-scoring affair from the beginning, with the teams heading into the locker room knotted at 15 points apiece. The Cowboys and Buffaloes combined to shoot below 25% from the field and committed a total of 16 turnovers in the first half.

Maldonado led all scorers with nine points at the break. Colorado’s Tyler Bey had ten rebounds by halftime but had made just one field goal to that point.

But the Buffs came out swinging in the second half, going on a 13-0 run over the first four minutes.

Wyoming answered and cut the deficit to as little as four points during the second half, but never fully recovered from Coloardo’s haymaker at the beginning of the period.

Another Buffaloes run late in the second half put the game out of reach.

Colorado (4-0, 0-0 Pac-12) remained undefeated after Sunday’s conquest at T-Mobile Arena. The win should help Colorado remain in the national polls and keeps them nipping at the heels of Pac-12 front-runners Oregon and Arizona.

OUTLOOK: For Wyoming, Hunter Maldonado has taken on the role vacated by NBA draftee Justin James, who served as the Cowboys’ do-everything star last season. A 6’7” sophomore, Maldonado was shaping up to be a great complement to James last year before an injury cut his season short.

Now, the spotlight—and the burden—is squarely on Maldonado.

But so far, the results have been much the same for Allen Edwards and the Cowboys. Wyoming came into the game on a bit of a roll after wins against Detroit Mercy and Louisiana, but that momentum took a big hit on Sunday.

With the loss, Wyoming (3-4, 0-0 MWC) falls back under .500 as they prepare for the second round of the MGM Main Event in Las Vegas. It was the Cowboys’ third loss in three tries against Power 5 opponents. Earlier in the season, they lost to South Carolina by 34 and to Oregon State by 20.

UP NEXT: The Cowboys are guaranteed a fourth shot at a Power 5 school on Tuesday, when they face the loser of the Clemson-TCU matchup. That game takes place later Sunday night. KenPom projections favor the Horned Frogs by three points over the Tigers. Both teams currently reside in the top 75 of Pomeroy’s ratings, with TCU at #51 and Clemson at #75.

PODCAST: 2019 Mountain West Week 13 Recap

Division titles have been clinched.

Contact/Follow @MWCwire

The championship game is set, bowl dreams dashed.

Jeremy and Matt are back to recap another week of Mountain West football and there was a lot on the line this week. Boise State and Hawaii both clinched the division crowns and there will be a rematch for the league title vs. the two teams. Bowl dreams were dashed with Fresno State, Colorado State and San Jose State all going down this weekend.

Also, we go through and attempt to figure out who should be offensive player of the year through each game recap, and it looks like the vote could go to any number of players.

Mountain West Football Bowl Projections After Week 13

Only seven teams will be bowl eligible.

Contact/Follow @JeremyMauss & @MWCwire

No more bowl eligible teams.

The Mountain West will have seven bowl-eligible teams this season since the teams in contention to get to six wins all lost. The seven teams are Boise State, Air Force, Utah State, Nevada, Hawaii, San Diego State, and Wyoming.

All have seven more wins except for Utah State and with the Mountain West having just six official bowl tie-ins there is a chance a team could get left out. At this time that team would be Utah State if they end up with six wins. The NCAA has a rule that they must take all teams with seven or more wins before they can choose a six-win team. The Aggies finish the season at New Mexico and that should allow them to get to seven wins.

As where teams will be placed it is getting more clear each week but there will be some changes if the New Year’s Six spot goes to the Mountain West.

The Broncos are in line to win out and have a good chance to do so, but there are two AAC team ahead of them in the pecking order in Memphis and Cincinnati. The latter has struggled mightily against bad teams and just keeps escaping with wins. The new College Football Playoff rankings probably will have Boise State pass the Bearcats but not Memphis. Those two AAC team will play on the final week of the season and then most likely again the following week.

Things can change and as much as Boise State looks to be good enough to be ahead of any American team, that pick can not be justified currently since the Broncos are not the highest-rated team in the Group of Five.

A few notes about the bowl lineups. Starting with the Hawaii Bowl. The game has a vaguely worded tie-in which is a combination between BYU, Hawaii or an AAC team. The Warriors have a 13-game schedule and must have seven wins to secure a bowl berth. Technically, BYU takes the Mountain West spot but a Cougars vs. Warriors matchup would be a classic WAC rivalry renewal.

There is a new bowl this year and it’s a Power Five opponent from the Big Ten in the Armed Forces Bowl.

Overall, the league has six guaranteed bowl berths and is a backup for the Cheez-It Bowl if the Pac-12 or Big 12 does not have enough teams eligible. As always, there can be trades for the best matchups.

Finally, if the Mountain West is the highest-rated team in the College Football Playoff then a New Year’s Six Bowl game is an option at either the Cotton or Orange Bowl.

Wyoming uses strong defense and running game to beat Colorado State

Wyoming Takes Bronze Boot, Again

[jwplayer eIkMAQ2P-sNi3MVSU]

Cowboys keep Bronze Boot for 4th straight year: Here’s three reasons why

Wyoming most likely secured a bowl game by notching its seventh win of the season against Colorado St., 17-7, after narrowly missing out last year with six wins. The annual Border War was the fourth win in four years for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys relied on their strengths to put the Rams away in the frigid temperatures at War Memorial Field. Here’s three quick reasons Wyoming ran away with the boot:

X Factor

Xazavian Valladay was questionable Friday night, as he was nursing a knee injury. That question mark turned into another 20+ carry night and carried him over the 1,000-yard mark for the season.

Valladay rushed for 154 yards with his most important run coming in the fourth quarter on a seldom-called run outside the left tackles for 22-yards. It set up a 48-yard field goal for senior Cooper Rothe, who ends his career as the all-time leading scorer, sealing the game for the Cowboys.

The sophomore workhorse past the century mark for the fifth straight game and six overall. The Cowboys roll as their running game goes.

The Cowboys also had true freshman Levi Williams in the mix, which was talked about all week if the passing game wasn’t working out with Tyler Vander Waal. The passing game didn’t work, but Williams still didn’t pass much as he and Vander Waal rotated. Wililams was 2-for-2 and ran the offense well and both quarterbacks had one touchdown run a piece.

Defense

As general a statement that is, defense was the key. The Cowboys put up another characteristically strong performance against a Rams offense that knows how to score.

Against a Colorado State squad that averages 30 points an outing and over 300 yards passing, the Wyoming defense held its opponent to its lowest output of the season. Pat O’Brien still had 200 yards passing, 95 of those going to the typical Rams NFL-bound receiver Warren Jackson. Jackson had the Rams only score.

Wyoming only recorded one sack, but allowed less than 50 yards in the rushing game. The defense had five tackles for loss.

Logan Wilson, a Reese’s Senior Bowl invite, had the stop of the game for the Cowboys picking off an O’Brien pass with just over three minutes left in the game.

Zero Degrees

At the time of kickoff, the temperature was hovering around 10 degrees. By the end of the game, it had dropped to around zero. While both teams are used to the winter temperatures, the north of the border crowd is definitely used to more extreme weather.

Wyoming V.S. Colorado: Game Preview

The Cowboys are looking for a Top-25 win against a pretty good Colorado Buffaloes team.

Do the Wyoming Cowboys have enough luck to get a win Sunday in Las Vegas?

WHO: Wyoming Cowboys (3-3, 0-0 Mountain West) vs. No. 23 Colorado Buffaloes (3-0, 1-0 Pac-12)

WHEN: Sunday, November 24 —7:00 PM EST/6:00 PM MST

WHERE: T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, NV

TV: None

STREAM: ESPN 3

RADIO: Tunein

SERIES RECORD: Wyoming leads all-time series 20-12

ODDS: Colorado -18, per KenPom

PREVIEW: The Cowboys have the opportunity to get a win against a top-25 team on Sunday as they take on the Colorado Buffaloes in a neutral site game in Las Vegas. Wyoming heads into Sunday riding a two game winning streak at home, and look to upset a really talented Buffalo team. 

Hunter Maldonado is leading Wyoming in points (16.5 PPG) and assists (2.8 APG), but he could use some help. In the Cowboys three losses Maldonado had little help on the scoring front but in two straight wins has seen his teammates really find a rhythm. They have also done a good job containing opposing team’s stars in those wins. Detroit’s super sophomore Antoine Davis (21.7 PPG) was held to just 11 points while making just five of his twenty-three shot attempts. While on Thursday, junior forward Jalen Johnson of Louisiana-Lafayette ended the night with 8 points after coming into Laramie averaging over twenty.

Check out our article on the top-25 players on opposing teams in non-conference play below, as there are several Buffaloes on the list.

Colorado is 3-0 on the year so far and may have been undervalued in the initial preseason top-25 poll. They return their top seven scorers from a team that finished 4th in the Pac-12 last season. Tad Boyle uses a mix of taller athletic guards in a smaller line up and are lead by a trio of juniors. Tyler Bey (6-7 218) is a double-double machine and gave several Mountain West teams a hard time in the post last year with his length and bounce. D’shawn Schwartz (6-7 225) has complimented Bey and Mckinley Wright IV so far this season. The Cowboys need to contain Wright IV as he does a little bit of everything for the Buffaloes (14.7 PPG, 5.0 RPG and 5.0 APG) and they are a better team when he takes control.

The Cowboys need another solid performance from multiple players on Sunday. And if they can get a productive game out of their front court as they have in their last two games, that may be a difference maker and can free up guys on the perimeter to score.

Prediction: Colorado 75, Wyoming 60

What’s Going To Happen

Wyoming is already bowl eligible, but as it’s learned from recent seasons, gong 6-6 doesn’t necessarily guarantee anything. It has a trip to Air Force next week, and a bowl isn’t a lock if the team finishes up the year on a four-game losing streak.

It needs that seventh win.

Colorado State has it tougher. It has to beat the Cowboys this week and Boise State next week to get eligible.

The Rams – despite just the four wins – are playing better. The offense has perked up, the passing punch is there, and the team is starting to look like the one it was supposed to be early on.

However, the offensive line is too leaky, gives up way too many plays in the backfield, and doesn’t generating nearly enough push for the running attack.

Wyoming might not have any sort of passing game to rely on, but in the home finale, the Mountain West’s No. 1 pass rush will take over on key downs, and the offense will grind out drives as it holds on to the ball for close well over half the game.

The Cowboy defense will do just enough to keep Patrick O’Brien and the Ram passing game in check – there won’t be anything from the ground attack to take over.

Tiebreaker or championship weekend

Jeremy and Matt are back to preview the 13th week of Mountain West football. There are rivalries and championships on the line. The Bronze Boot gets things started on Friday night with Colorado State taking on Wyoming. The Rams are wanting to remain in the discussion for a bowl game.

The Saturday games have two big ones that could determine the championship game attendees. A Boise State win over Utah State puts them in the title game and hosting, a loss means tiebreakers come into play. San Diego State vs. Hawaii is a winner-take-all in the West Division and is a late-night Facebook game.

Nevada takes on Fresno State and the Bulldogs are wanting to get to a bowl game and need to get this win to have at least five and then win next week as well. The other game is San Jose State who is also looking to stay on track for a bowl game and they are on the road at UNLV.
