We had discussed future schedules in an earlier thread.

It was addressed that with Power 4 schools not wanting to risk losses in their pre-conference schedules moving forward that we would see very few “big time” OOC opponents coming to Laramie in the next decade and beyond. When looking at future schedules for UW, this is completely evident.

One out-of-conference home game still on the schedule is Utah next season.

If Utah doesn’t buy the game out (Huge if), this could very well be the last “big time” out-of-conference game in Laramie for a REALLY long time and maybe ever.

So therefore, no matter how difficult it will be, we are Utah fans this year! We want them to be as highly ranked as possible when they come to Laramie on September 13th, 2025.

Tons of “experts” have them going to the playoffs and even going deep when they get there.

How cool would it be to have a Top 5 ranked team come to Laramie?!

As gross as it sounds, GO UTES in 2024…so you can come get beat in Laramie in 2025!

Even if it was just a scrimmage

Received email from Mitchell Edwards of 307 campaign thanking me for donations and apologizing for no initial response for same.

Strong work.

StillI think you should invite them over to board for dialogue…..

You could invite all the GoWYOGO gang and the 307 folks to a gathering you host where lots of beer can be had at the host’s expense and they can chat us up in person….

Just a thought….

Go Pokes

Any Wyomingites in the Olympics that anyone knows of

Josh reveals he's playing Wyoming in EA's College Football '25. I'm also playing Wyoming, but I suck at PS5. I've already lost to Arizona State and BYU. I did beat the Lambs though😆

I have friends that are walking in the AA to avoid the mosquitoes and they said they heard positive things coming from a recent MBB practice (loud but fun). Wicks was calling out plays and the vibe was much different than what they observed/heard last year. They spoke with the Cowgirl coaches on another day, again hearing positive things. Cowgirls practice after the men.
