It has been awhile since Wyoming put a video out for the football team. Usually teams don't put out a video after a shocking less. I like the message the Pokes are putting out here. While many fans have spent the last six days bitching and calling for coaches to be fired. I'm more interested in seeing how the Pokes respond after such a low moment. I'm pumped for the game this weekend!
The University of Idaho has a crazy new marketing website called "Get Vandalized". You can design your own Vandal and change the background. I gave my Vandal two shields so that he would be would be extra defensive. Defense wins championships folks!
A look at Cal Poly in their season opening win over San Diego. Their quarterback senior Andre Broadus is legit and could give the Cowboys fits.

Mountain West Connection put together a list of all the conference games this week and how they can be viewed. This chart will be very handy in the future as the TV deal is such a mess this year.

After his 173 yard and two touchdown performance Wyoming's Robert Herron was named receiver of the week by College Football Performance Awards.

Others that received honorable mention are: Marqise Lee (USC), Conner Vernon (Duke), DeAndre Hopkins (Clemson), Brelan Chancellor (North Texas) and Byron Hankerson (FAU).
There is some possible hope Wyoming fans. U-Verse could possibly pick up the Longhorn Network and possibly in time for Saturday's game.
Mountain West Connection found another Wyoming game that will broadcast. The new Time Warner Cable SportsNet will launch October 1st and show 12 Mountain West football and at least 24 basketball games. The Wyoming at UNLV game is one of those 12 broadcasts.

Jeremy and Chris from MWC Connection have been doing a preview for every Mountain West team. They were kind enough to have me join them. They even finally wrangled out a season prediction from me. Check out the podcast and the other great stories they have on the site.
