I think they have issues with snapper.

I know that was the previous excuse…but who cares at that point? What’s the odds of getting 14 to win in under 2 minutes???

Muma and our secondary had a rough game. As did our oline.

Officials were garbage but so were we.

We've seen the game plan. Stuff the run and make Chambers beat you through the air. He's going to have to play a lot better than tonight or it will turn into a really long year.

I guess I'm just happy we were in the game for a while.

Wyoming doesn't beat teams with a pulse on the road... and find ways to almost lose to terrible teams on the road. Holding Air Force to 24 isn't too shabby, especially considering we waited until extremely late in the second quarter to even get our first down.

Outside of the 2 scoring drives before the half, we amassed a grand total of 87 yards.

The last three minutes of the first half was the only good part of this game

We definitely will only go as far as chambers will take us. It’s enough to win some games but it’ll never be enough to win a championship. I don’t get it. Chambers looks like a passer at times and then will go through spurts where he’s not even close. Is it his feet? I don’t know.

AF O is solid. I bet they score 24+ most games so you gotta out score them.

Pretty simple and we'll see lots of it. Dare Chambers to beat you. He couldn't do it tonight. It really isn't more complicated than that.

I wasn’t able to watch. Seems like the d did their part. 24 points is ok. Held them to 3.3 ypc which is commendable against AF. Seems like the offense sucked as per usual

My take, for what it's worth??? AF came out controlled the ball and clock for the 1st 8:18 of this game, we came out flat on O again, and miraculously found ourselves for about 6 minutes of the 2nd then AF does what they do best....pass????? Sure, when we keyed on the run all game the surprise catches really did a number on us. Undefeated isn't the Wyoming way anyway and it was a bit overhyped, now we really get to the meat of our schedule and we'll see how bad we want it...afterall Boise was woken up by beating BYU today. We shall see, prepare for a night, hard fought game against the Fresno St Bulldogs next week..

How bad do they want it???

The next four games are very winnable - Fresno, New Mex, at SJSU, csu.

No need to panic. Yeah it sucks we lost, but it could have gone either way.

Yeah, we lost a road game to a decent team. Sucks, but it's not the end of the world ... yet. I do think we've got to give some other QBs a chance. If Sean stinks the joint up in the first half of next game I would like to see Williams.

I agree. Could be a boost that the team needs.

Got to disagree here...(hope that is ok...this is a message board after all) I think that game was a master class in how to get dominated by AFA. We had exactly two possessions where we did anything at all. I don't think it could have gone much worse for us if Troy Calhoun had scripted it himself.

There was a brief moment from the last few minutes of the first half through our first cruddy drive after the half where I though there was a glimmer but it was fool's gold.

I actually agree with this. Way more bad than good in the game and lots of room for concern.
