We play the Toledo Rockets. :roll:

At least the game is on T.V. this time around. It'll be on the CW.

No disrespect to any and all MAC teams but I'm getting sick of Wyoming playing MAC teams.

I hate this. Toledo is going to beat us like a drum. This sucks. Crap bowl. Crap announcers. It’s a joke.

We got screwed. The Rockets will destroy us. 11-2 and only lost 2 games by a combined 9 points.

I hope we didn’t ask for this. Get paid nothing to play in a bowl nobody will watch. Does absolutely nothing for us. Nothing.

You guys are funny.

I thought the announcing was better than most last year. Thought it was funny.

Anyways with that said, Wyoming will not get destroyed by Toledo. Will be a good game.

Just because they went 11-2 doesn’t mean anything. They had a good year but they didn’t play any real tough competition. Wyoming had a far harder schedule.

I’ll let you all get back to your moaning and groaning lol

We are excited for the matchup, date and location. Will be there. FFS - we knew we were going to a MWC affiliated bowl. We could have been going to Boise or Hawaii on Christmas Eve. While this is a 3rd AZ bowl trip, it’s a good location and date.

Such a fun bowl in person. Come on down and enjoy the warm weather. I’ll buy you naysayers a beer.😁

Way better than the potato bowl. Weird it’s the same one as last year, but whatever. We should have finished higher in the MWC if we wanted a better bowl. Just a reminder that everything, but the top two are garbage bowls for the MWC. At least it’s in a warm place

Toledo looked pretty good yesterday when they were playing for the MAC crown. Wyoming will have show up with its A game to win. While not a high prestige game, the location is warm and can be a welcome break from Wyoming winter. If we want a better bowl the team needs to be beter

I'm with you.

With the mwc bowl tie-ins and being, what 3rd in the mtn division, it's not a bad draw. Warm weather, solid opponent for our level of play, etc.

Congrats players and coaches. Now go win this!

Fully agree!

How many of you needed a weekend in a warm place in order to convince the wife? No way in hell we would be going to Boise or Hawaii. We are going to Tucson!

This bowl has location, date and opponent going for it.

The "announcers" got tiresome last year, when they ran out of schtick half way through the second quarter and when they got past their fourth shot or whatever they were doing. Yeah, I'm "old" but I would have tuned them out in the second half back when I was a student, too.

After this game we will have played more than half of the MAC schools just since Bohl has been here:

Ohio (bowl game)
Kent State (bowl game)
Toldeo (bowl game)
Northern Illinois X2
Eastern Michigan X2
Central Michigan (bowl game)
Ball State


Just win this time. Revenge for the game in Laramie when they tried to kill Brett Smith.
