Getting down and dirty on UW o-line

LARAMIE (AP) — It’s a case of the right hand knowing what the left hand is doing.

That’s the left side of Wyoming’s offensive line where guard Sam Sterner and tackle Ryan Otterson are deeply rooted.

The two UW linemen have been getting “down and dirty” in the trenches, side-by-side, for 24 straight games.

When the Cowboys open the 2009 season on Sept. 5 against Weber State, Sterner and Otterson will begin their third season of watching each other’s back.

“It doesn’t happen very often, and I’ve been fortunate that we have been able to play together this long,” Sterner, a 6-foot-2, 302-pound junior guard from Waconia, Minn., said. “You get to a point where you’re pretty much on the same page, and that’s where Ryan and I are. We have been playing together so long that I know what he does and he knows what I do.”
