Thanks Ron I agree one of my favorites of all time
Robert Duvall's character was one of the best ever
How about " What to cut cards for a poke" classic

I agree- loved that movie BTW got it on DVD
Ron check out the book titled " From Guns to Gavels How Justice Grew up in The Outlaw West "by Bill Neal
This book was done with a lot of research and takes place in your part of the country during the turn of the century.

Of course I do.......everyone knows that the MWC strikes fear in all the BCS teams.....why do you think the BCS won't let em in.....must be the defense !

I meant a good one ... but you knew that.

TCU held Oklahoma to their second lowest point total in 2008. Though Texas also earned the mark, only Florida gave up less. Florida did this by keeping their offense on the field for extended periods of time.

Utah faced one of the best PAC 10 defenses (Oregon State) and a solid SEC defense (Alabama). By far the best defense they faced was TCU.

The MWC as a whole has focused on defense. Offense gets you to big games, defense wins them.

TCU will be much improved in offense this year. Look out.

Yeah, it would be tough to play a game without one.......you may not win any..

Little known secret:

The MWC is a defensive league. EVERYONE in the MWC has a defense.

First of all, Welcome to fanblogs... We need all the MWC fans we can get around here.

I would like to state that any disparaging remarks made towards Wyoming have been directed related to the fact that the rivalry between our schools is long, historic and intense. When coaches are acting in an unsportsmanlike manner you know the rivalry is intense.

The only thing I disparaged, really was the school colors. I have said nothing about the people here. I did link to a BYU sight that captured the typical Utah/BYU attitude towards Wyoming for educational purposes for those east coasters that dominate this sight.

Please don't take us too seriously, we pick on everyone equally. Just be glad your not from Alabama ... We are merciless to the fine folks of Alabama.

I have no idea where OU_Ron gets his information from. 83% of the stats on this sight are made up on the spot.

I am looking forward to seeing Wyoming become a bowl regular in the upcoming years. I really believe that the new coach may be the person to turn around an entire state, not just the football program.

Save the energy for the day you get into it with Tiger Educated.

GO MWC!

That reminds me of the TV movie " Lonesome Dove "......great thought for a friend to do that for you...but might be a little rough on him if he's 95 years old and can't get on a horse.........you might think about changing you will when he reaches 90..

Tomcat....just remember this for the rest of your life.....Wyoming is God's country! (well, maybe not the southwestern part) but the rest of it is my idea of heaven on Earth! When I die, and this really is a part of my last will and testament, my best friend has to ride 23 miles into the Big Horn mountains and spread my ashes in our Elk hunting camp....

My apologies, I didn't realize that Washington....or Wyoming had such a great defense ( not sure which team you're talking about ).....maybe if Stoops sticks around a few more years, he'll be able to make the Sooners into a top 10 team..

Negative on the logo mistake, in Ranger school, we were required to do a paper about Army history and that was the story I chose to research, the logo and the war cry were both in WWII cowpokes, but I do commend you on getting the entire war cry right! Also, there is a heated debate on whether the horses name was Steamboat (I am a fan of this name) or Redwing. It was Guy Holt riding in the pic though.
And I am relaxed.....you should see me worked up! ha ha!
as for you ronny boy, we may not go to bowl games every year, but the last time we went......we won (2004), which is more than I can say about the sooners (2003). We also have a top 10 defense pretty damn consistently! Not too shabby if you ask me!

Utah got screwed on National Title Game! Hell they walked all over BAMA and BAMA was ranked #1 for how many weeks and was undeafeted till SEC title game! They beat BAMA more than Florida did! Take the #1 out of each conferance and have a bracket that has single elimination and you got your title game! Then do what ever you want with all these damn bowl games!

15pokes15 loosen up man! Its the internet! The Utah ass whoopin we got in SLC in 2007 we deserved thanks to Joe Glenn! Onside kick oh I saw it coming, as a coach you gotta keep you mouth shut about a guarantee or its going to come back and haunt you! New things happening in Laramie with the new coach! Excited to see what happens when his recruits come in and we have no more of Glenns players slumping around town! Anxious to see what 7220 will do to Texas, look what it did to UVA, especially with a fast paced Spread Offense!! OKLAHOMO! LOL For the Brokeback THEME running around, that film was filmed in Canada! To get from Wyoming to Canada gotta go through sheep country USA "Montana"!! LOGO change not a fan of it! This state evolves around that logo and not all of that has to do with the University! OH 15POKES15 you got it all wrong with the LOGO and WWII your thinking of the battle cry "Powder River Let'er Buck, We didn't Come to Play, We Came to Fight and F@^&!" For all you outer staters we say "Powder River Let'er Buck" before the team comes onto the field! To get the LOGO corrected here, the horse is Steamboat! The badest, meanest horse to ever live on the planet that was raised on a ranch outside of Laramie and the rider is Guy Holt! Colors well I like them, they are alot better than the Praire Gold that we used to have!!

7220 ft HOWS YOUR OXYGEN!
