2005 Week 9

SAN DIEGO, California - Wyoming simply never let the Aztecs touch the ball. The Cowboys ran 73 plays to the Aztecs' 45, and held the ball for almost twice as long, never really giving San Diego State a chance to score, as the Cowboys won 24 - 10.

Wyoming quarterback Kenneth Wingate was brilliant again, completing 25 of 33 passes for 373 yards and three scores, all to senior wideout Jovon Bouknight. The Aztecs simply didn't have an answer for Bouknight, who finished with 11 receptions for 191 yards.

When they were on the field, the defense played well, getting good pressure up front and keeping the wide receivers in front of them, forcing San Diego State quarterback Shayne Mann into a disappointing 6 - 19 performance.

"The guys came in focused and executed well all afternoon," head coach Joe Glenn said.

"When we do that, we're a pretty decent football team. As long as we play smart, and don't make mistakes, we can stay with a whole lot of teams."

Wyoming clearly stayed with the Aztecs today. They will get a much greater challenge next week when 6th ranked Colorado State visits War Memorial Stadium in a battle between conference unbeatens.
