4. December 7, 1996 - It was the ’96 WAC Championship Game. The 25-28 loss was hard, but the Pokes held their heads high after forcing 6th ranked BYU into overtime. What a game.

3. November 27, 1993  - At San Diego State on the last game of an 8-4 season, Wyoming came from behind to pull out a 43-38 thriller.

2.September 7, 1996 - Early in that great 10-2 season, the Pokes proved their were for real, beating Iowa State on the road in OT, 41-38.

1. November 16, 1996 - After 9 straight wins, the season’s first loss came the week before. We weren’t letting that happen again, especially against CSU in Fort Collins. Wyoming rallied late in the 4th quarter to win the Border War and claim the Bronze Boot, 25-24.

Godspeed, Coach.
