Its being discussed on CSUs Ram Rumblings
No. We lost to them twice last year. Interesting that we are +1 on our home court. Its almost like the oddsmakers are making it easier to bet Wyoming. Seattle, is this what you would call a trap game?

No. No trap game.

They opened the line Wyoming favored -1.5

Someone they respect with big money bet on CSU so the line moved to A pick ‘em , then to CSU -1 or CSU -1.5 depending on the book.

Someone seems to think CSU will win tonight. Good thing they aren’t always right.

This seems like some upper level trolling for us to wear an idea we stole from our opponents against those same opponents. That should definitely annoy some people down south.

It's the Border War. I guess I'll stifle my vomit from borrowing CSU's state flag uniforms just because it probably pisses off a lot of people in Fort Collins.
Wyoming didn’t rip this off. Wyoming wore these uniforms last year when we played CSU. So it’s just the same uniforms from last year.
Yeah, we did. They had their state pride uniforms at least 1 season before we did.

Plus, I never knew white was one of our school colors. But ok, I guess. I'll just wear white and it won't have any UW logos on it.
csewe colors are green and white - is this for them?
Seriously. When I first heard “whiteout” the first thing that came to mind were some horrifying drives through Shirley Basin in white out conditions.
Me too! Too many memories.... :D

Okay. Didn’t realize they had them that long.

Honestly I don’t care if we come out in hot pink ballerina shoes and tutu’s as long as we win.

Okay folks. The road westbound Cheyenne to Laramie is closed for rolling closure due to full closure west of Laramie. This means that if you're going to Laramie only they should let you through. We need everyone at the game. I80 and Wyo 210 both look good Cheyenne to Laramie.

Looks like they put White t shirts on all the seat backs in the lower bowl. So free tshirts for people who get there early enough.

They should really change the seats in the upper. Looks more ghetto every year.

No question. I'm not really excited to lose capacity, but we don't exactly fill the upper bowl these days. I say install the larger seats (maybe in brown so they don't stand out so much), lower capacity with the new seats, and make for a better look and experience.

Look 3 posts up and you will see it is on FS 1 at 6 pm MT.
You can tell how big a person is by what it takes to discourage him/her.

Or get some drives to the paint like CSU does. The Pokes offense seems very predictable, very flat I'm surprised they have stayed so close to CSU.

The basketball doesn’t lie. We had a clean strip on Roddy and they called it. Even better that he missed the game winner. Good job pokes!

That was a great game to watch. It's fitting that Roddy missed his second free throw after getting to the line on a clean strip. It was also fitting he fouled out on Maldonado's flop after Roddy flopped on the play before.

This conference is loaded with teams that could do some damage in the NCAA tournament.
