Why Wyoming Will Win

You sort of know what’s coming. Lather, rinse, repeat …

Play great defense, count on the running game, suffocate the opposing offensive game plan.

The Cowboys will start running and keep running with speed, experience, and power, starting with Xazavian Valladay working behind a line that was banged up last year but is now a whole lot better. The Cowboys, though, will try to win by setting the offense up with good field position from defensive stop after defensive stop.

The Nevada offensive line is experienced, but it wasn’t all that great last year and now has to deal with a terrific Cowboy defensive interior.

Why Nevada Will Win

There won’t be a whole lot to worry about with the Wyoming passing game.

The ground attack will be okay, but the Cowboys don’t have the receivers to push a Nevada secondary that’s fine, but nothing special.

The Wolf Pack has a good young quarterback in Carson Strong and a good-looking 1-2 receiving punch in Elijah Cooks and Romeo Doubs. Wyoming doesn’t have the offense to pull away with this, but Nevada should have the passing game to strike quickly.

What’s Going To Happen

Don’t expect Wyoming to change what works. It’ll run the ball, slow the game down, rely on the defense, and try to dominate on third downs. Nevada will have its offensive moments at home, but not enough of them.

The Cowboys will have to press a bit in the second half after the Wolf Pack come up with a few early scores after halftime, but they’ll own the clock and the tempo.

Wyoming’s late night upset highlights an exciting Day 2

It was nearly midnight in Laramie by the time the quarterfinal round of the Mountain West Tournament drew to a close. But Wyoming fans had plenty of reasons to stay up past their bedtime. Here’s a quick recap of how eight became four, as we roll into the semis.

(#1) San Diego State 73, (#9) Air Force 60

Full Recap: Aztecs eliminate Falcons

The Aztecs got off to a slow start against Air Force, as has become their custom of late. But just as customary was the second-half surge that saw SDSU through to the semifinals. Jordan Schakel led the Aztecs with 17 points, while the Falcons’ AJ Walker poured in a game-high 18.

(#5) Boise State 67, (#4) UNLV 61

Full Recap: Broncos headed to semifinals

On paper, this was always supposed to be a close matchup. This game didn’t disappoint in that respect, although the home crowd at the Thomas & Mack Center won’t be happy to see their team ousted so early – especially after a five-game winning streak to get here. Boise State’s RJ Williams exploded for 23 points and 15 rebounds as the Broncos move on to face San Diego State tomorrow.

(#2) Utah State 75, (#7) New Mexico 70

The Lobos might have scored a win at The Pit on Senior Day, but they weren’t able to repeat the task against Utah State on Thursday. Sam Merrill’s 29 points were simply too much for New Mexico, despite the game remaining close throughout. Perhaps it was an act of grace, as the Lobos’ tumultuous likely draws to close. New Mexico’s record is likely good enough to earn an invite to the CBI or CIT, but it is unclear whether the team would accept one.

(#11) Wyoming 74, (#3) Nevada 71

Allen Edwards’ team had to wait a long time to start their game, but they decisively answered any questions about whether they could carry the momentum of their upset over Colorado State into Thursday’s game against Nevada. Perhaps owing to the late tip, the Wolf Pack were outlasted by a Wyoming team that became the first-ever double-digit seed to reach the Mountain West semifinals. They will face Utah State on Friday for a trip to the championship game.
