Receipts
I just joined the Fire Bohl bandwagon after Illinois. I still don't think we're good. Afa was missing a bunch of guys to injury and 50 of them had flu this week.
I think we'll lose just about every road game, starting this week against Byu.

I appreciate your posts as much as anyone on here especially pertaining to our B-Ball team. I would not be opposed to the football team stealing some of the basketball teams early season thunder which I think they will if the team that played today plays here on out. I think you are wrong in many ways. I do not think we will lose to CSU in Fort Farr, nor do I think we lose to Hawaii. Those two teams are the definition of a dumpster fire. I think we get San Jose at home as well and New Mexico on the road. They keep winning and improving there is nothing this team can't do.
I'm obviously staying guarded, but I feel better after tonight, I just feel your wrong about all road games.

Smh. We were missing two starters as well. What will it take for you to believe
Don't get me wrong. I'm excited for our young team. I'm really happy that they're exceeding my expectations and giving me something to cheer for before hoops.aranderson wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 11:25 pmI appreciate your posts as much as anyone on here especially pertaining to our B-Ball team.

I just don't have faith this staff can ever win a MWC title. Tonight didn't change that.
I think we will beat CSU.

I'll own it. I still don't think Bohl is a good enough coach to win the division. I'm thrilled for the kids, and am happy to eat crow on this one.
What is the difference between politicians and stoners? Politicians don't inhale...they just suck.

We should be able to beat everyone but Fresno and Boise if these teams show up. Hell, Boise isn’t unbeatable this year.

Craig Bohl is to Howdy Doody as Rocky Long is to Craig Bohl.
That was a pretty big win. With a down MWC, knocking off the predicted division champ sets up well for the remaining conference slate.
My position on CB hasn't changed. Let him ride out his contract. Regarding the team, my position also hasn't changed... with a down MWC, it's tough to tell. I'll revise 1 thought. Only byu is probably out of reach. Obviously AF isn't out of reach but this team may be able to stay competitive with the remaining schedule. I originally thought there would be 2 to 3 out of reach mwc games.
Great win to start conference play.

Bohl still drives me crazy with clock management stuff. I swear the man coaches like he gets a bonus at the end of the year for every unused timeout. Line up to go for it on 4th and 1 and then take a delay of game with 3 TOs???
After seeing that I thought we were headed for another close conference loss, like so many others from 2017-2019, where we play not to lose instead of to win. Happily proven wrong. The last two drives showed what it looks like when teams actually have to guess run vs pass against us. Turns out it makes us a lot harder to stop. Credit where credit is due to Bohl, Polasek, Peasley, Swen and Co.

Here to eat my crow. This is not the same team that got trucked in Illinois. Happy to see play action passes, screens, and passes on first down!
MW is down this year. We've got as good a chance as any to win this division. I'm cautiously optimistic going forward.
I hope the team and coaching staff know how much we hate the borg. The only thing sweeter than kicking the poop out of byu is racing across the field to grab the Bronze Boot.
To summarize: GO POKES!!! f-word you, byu!

Sebastian Harsh, Gunner Gentry. Losing players to injury is part of football. The Pokes didn’t use that excuse. Next man up and they’ve been winning. Easton Gibbs lost 12 lbs in 24 hours and was running a 103 degree temp, and played an excellent game. The injury/illness excuse happens to every team. You deal with it. Wyoming is legit. Give them some credit. Let’s get on board.

The MWC is terrible this year and I still don't think we can win the league.
Usually I don't voice negativity, but after nine seasons of .500 football and zero titles, I expect .500 football with zero titles.

I'll eat a little crow here too. I had us penciled in for 4-8. Did not think we'd get through AFA, and yet here we are. This team is tough as nails and resilient. I really had questions after Illinois. To use a little coachspeak this week though, with a young team it's all about the improvement from week to week. It's clear that this team is coming together.

We'll see how this works. I've tried either being supportive or not saying anything at all for the last nine years. Maybe me being negative is all we need to switch the bad cosmic mojo and win the league.LanderPoke wrote: ↑Sun Sep 18, 2022 12:31 pmHell of a season to be negative!

I'll still go to games and watch all of them on t.v. I just don't expect anything other than 7-5 and a Potato Bowl appearance.

I am your man, although not a "muppet" (WTF is that anyway).
WYO rose to the occasion, and of course it helped they were without a few of their speedy arrogant RB's, no?
Dear Karma,
I have a list of people you missed...
