The Wyoming Cowboys will be playing in front of their home fans against the New Mexico Lobos at 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Jonah Field at War Memorial Stadium. The two teams each escaped (but just barely!) with wins against their previous opponents.
Wyoming was not the first on the board last Saturday, but they got there more often. They came out on top in a nail-biter against App. State and snuck past 22-19. The success represented a nice turnaround for Wyoming who in their last game suffered a tough 31-10 loss.
Harrison Waylee continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, rushing for 156 yards and a touchdown. Waylee's longest rush was for an incredible 75 yards.
Meanwhile, it may have taken the full four quarters to finish the job, but New Mexico ultimately got the result they hoped for on Saturday. They had just enough and edged UMass out 34-31. The team accrued 28 points in the first half and coasted on those for the victory.
Their wins bumped Wyoming to 3-1 and New Mexico to 2-2.
Looking ahead, Wyoming is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 14 points.
What a start it's been for Wyoming: they've won three of their first four matches so far this season, giving them a stellar 3-1 record. To be fair, Wyoming's opponents had an average overall winning percentage of 37.5% over those games. New Mexico's win on Saturday bumped their record up to 2-2.
