Even though Weber had, it seems like, a million penalties and turnovers, Weber should have won this game. The defense played great, the offense, well they looked good at times, and absolutely atrocious at other times. In a sense, that is to be expected, Wyoming has one of the toughest D's in the nation. Its good to know that the offense could make the necessary adjustments in the game to find success, to bad they were a bit too late. NO matter, Weber still should have won. What was with the blocked field goal? Weber needed a TD not a Field goal, and the defense was proving that they could stop the pokes, why didn't Weber go for it? There is nothing to lose in a game of this nature, but everything to gain. Weber should have gone for it. A TD at that point on a 4th down really would have energized our team. Oh well...
In my opinion though, the MVP's for Wyoming should be their Refs (it seemed as if this crew was from Casper, Gillete, or Cheyenne) Weber got homered. Yes, there were some very definite penalties, but a few definite head scratchers. The clipping call on Toones big run, the illegal motion on a TD, the holding call on Phillips 26yard reception, which would have put the cats inside the red zone, each, phantom calls, and each momentum changing calls. Yes, the running into the kicker penalty did happen, but the kicker did a great job of running into a Cat who had been blocked into the kicker, and then he did and even better job of falling down. Christensen should be real proud of the way his team won the game. Its one thing to play the game competing against a supposedly superior team, in a superior conference, but its an even toughter feat to play against a FBS team and then have to beat their crocked refs as well. A definite shame. This crew should be suspended, and sent back to reffing local Wyoming high school games.
