This Program is SPECIAL... (The Rise of Wyoming Football)

[@rhd26]

As a guy who never watched college football before, after NCAA 25 came out I chose a random team to be both my dynasty and my real life team. I am now a lifelong die hard Wyoming football fan

[@the503creepout7]

There are only a few teams that can really pull off the clarendon font numbers on their uniforms... #1 being UCLA. And #2 being Wyoming. Both those teams make that font look so cool & classy.

[@GAdawg2k8]

Josh Allen’s impact was such that when he was drafted by Buffalo, you saw people walking around with a hybrid Pokes/Bills logo on shirts and hats. I have lived in Wyoming for 10 years. I’m a Texas fan, but I understand the importance of Pokes football in the state. They are the state’s lone four-year school in a state with one area code. I encourage you to go to a Wyoming game in Laramie. It is an amazing atmosphere that is to be experienced at least once.

[@Waynebruce234]

I’ve lived in Wyoming for 8 years now, I’m a Texas fan too UW games are electric for sure!

[@davelb87]

A Mount Union profile would be great. A +/- 25-year stretch where every graduating class won at least 1 national title.

[@pedrop99969]

Loved watching them In Arizona bowl

[@kaih307]

Being a Wyoming grad and native I truly think a game at The War should be on everyone's bucket list!

[@GAdawg2k8]

I’ve been to several Border War games since moving here, including the game during snowstorm and the last and first Border War games in Hughes and Canvas stadiums. But taking in the game at War Memorial is intense!

[@cougmike]

Didn’t realize how many coaching ties between Washington State and Wyoming. Dennis Erickson, Joe Tiller, and now Jake Dickert. I’m kind of pulling for Wyoming to make their way into the Pac-12 and continue their rivalry with CSU.

[@Gamer19CG]

Wyoming is a nice school. I definitely see a good program that will continue to get their recognition like other Group of 5 schools

I wish college football could go back to being what it was in the 2000s early 2010s when it was a regional sport from a recruiting standpoint. Sure the big boys could recruit nationally but it wasn’t what it is now

[@AceManning18]

Only the big boys recruit nationally now, for the most part.. you might have a specific coaching staff with a pipeline somewhere, that's always been the case.

13:48 As a resident of the state, you really mispronounced Thermopolis. (Thur-maw-poll-is)

[@GregoryFrank-tr1uw]

As a resident of Thermopolis just say Thermop (Thur-mawp).

[@B-Drizzle15]

Said the same thing 😂

[@Lfg117]

You skipped over a very important story in Wyoming sports history, and U.S. sports history, centered around a very strong Wyoming fb team in the late 60s. Thank u for profiling Wyoming cfb.

[@wyoguy9720]

Yeah… never really bounced back from that

[@augiegirl1]

“DEV-ny”? It’s De-VAN-ey! As in, Tom Osborne’s predecessor at Nebraska who started the dynasty!

[@jasonshaneyfelt1039]

He made this same pronunciation on his video about Nebraska and the comments were full of corrections. Clearly, he doesn't read the comments lol

[@augiegirl1]

@@jasonshaneyfelt1039 He must have made multiple Husker videos. I'm watching one from April 2022; his pronunciation (De-VEH-ney) is closer to correct & only one commenter corrects him.

You should do something on SIU-Carbondale

[@immockingu3510]

I am transferring to East Carolina University in Fall Semester. A video on them would be cool, as I and my dads side of the family is very much into College Football.

[@Jettvikings]

You should look into Montana State university

[@MarkCzmic420]

Awesome video as expected.. can you do a video on James Madison.(JMU)

[@Crusaderknight6277]

Can you do the birth of the college of Idaho football or the rise of college of Idaho mens basketball

[@GAdawg2k8]

I like that you focus on some of the smaller schools in the FBS. You could also do a deep dive into North Dakota State. Another suggestion is maybe a deep dive into the Appalachian State-Michigan upset game and other famous games in CFB.

[@gandhithegreat328]

Well, this was a jinx as they are sitting at 2-9 going into the last game of the season

[@jcwelch5603]

Wyo Alum here... let's be honest, there's nothing special about this program! But they try! WE have sooo little to be proud of! It's only popular b/c there is NOTHING to do in the state! Ppl only go to UW b/c cheap in state tuition & UW has to accept WY hs seniors! Ppl show up for the game, but by halftime losing, most ppl leave the game early! & when hunting season starts, attendance goes way down! Sad that our best bowl wins in last 40 yrs. are 2nd rate games & most bowls don't want us b/c Wyo fans do NOT travel far!!😂 A game here is not bucket worthy, I see more enthusiasm at a HS Texas FB game! All u need to see is stop video at 3:28 and see how they welcome the FB players onto the field! Enough said...😂

[@arthurplant5962]

Today, the Wyoming Black 14 is celebrated. The College Football Hall of Fame features a Wyoming 14 armband & Black 14 Banner, the 1969 Wyoming vs. BYU game. Around the fiftieth anniversary of the protest and racist dismissal. Their coach, Lloyd Eaton, removed all the black players on the spot for asking for his support.

you didnt talk about the cowboys in 1968 being a powerhouse and then the most important part of the history is the black 14. a very bad time for wyo football. please take the time to read about the black 14. it not only affected wyo football but byu as well also the coach that went to nebraska was bob de van ey not the way you pronounced it.

[@BradyElliott-g3c]

Your accent is getting better, but try to be more natural. Your content is interesting and something I want to watch, but it's just tough with the way you speak off the script. This is an easy fix. Just have a normal conversation with us.

[@charlesdparker3925]

This new cowboy coach must stay on for 8 seconds, where a second is worth a year in many other places. He'll need to be at Frontier Days for his first years and the Hunt the high country for big game. His family will need to express their love of the Wyoming lifestyle and after a few years, he'll need to vote for the conservative candidates, openly. This now could be his demise.
