Wyoming Ends Season With Loss
LAS VEGAS, Nevada - For the second week in a row, the Wyoming defense played well enough to give the offense a chance to win, and for the second week in a row, an inept running game prevented Wyoming from capitalizing on the opportunity.
The defense allowed a season low 275 total yards of offense to UNLV, but the offense could only manage a field goal on their oppening possession and a short touchdown run by wideout Jovon Bouknight in the third quarter.
"Yup, no running game, no win," head coach Joe Glenn told reporters after the game.
"Sound familiar? Believe me, we've tried just about everything in practice to try and find some semblance of a rushing attack. Obviously, we never found one this year, and I'm convinced the answer is to bring in some different personnel this offseason. I'll let you know in August if that works," Glenn said as he walked away, clearly frustrated.
The loss brings an end to a season that was at times exciting, promising, frustrating and disappointing. In each of his two seasons at Wyoming, Glenn has increased the program's win total by two games over the previous year. He inherited a program that had gone 2 - 10 the year before, and finished 4 - 8 in his first season. This year, with his first recruiting class, Glenn's Cowboys won half of their games to finish 6 - 6. If that trend continues, Wyoming will have its first winning season of the millennium in 2005.
