Common Man Predictions – Wyoming Cowboys

[Sirhornsalot]

One of my greatest fears will be put to the test this week as the Horns, coming off such a dramatic win over Bama, are primed for a letdown against a team EVERYBODY expects them to beat. In the recent years, we've seen this play out where we get rolling, then lose to someone we shouldn't lose to. I hope we have effectively broken the chain this year.

Wyoming is not to be discounted though. They can ball. They beat Texas Tech and manhandled them in the 4th quarter.

Seriously though, we should win this game handily and hope we escape without injury. It's a home game so we have that advantage as well as having the better team.

Texas 56

Wyoming 7

59-10

Arch finally sees some action

59-10

Arch finally sees some action

It would be good to get him in a game finally and see how he does.

 

[UTfish]

Texas      42

Wyoming 13

Which statement doesn’t belong?

Which statement doesn’t belong?

Wyoming could play us closer, is what I was thinking. But I think we're going to put on a clinic instead.

 

[Capn Hook]

Horns 45

C'boys 13

 

[Billybass]

I’m seeing a sluggish start, then controlling game late.

Horns 31

Wyoming 13

Horns 31

Wyoming 13

I agree. We start sluggish but finish strong.

Horns                   42

Yellowstoners      24

 

[MBHORNSFAN]

We will likely start slow but should win by 20 plus points.

Texas 41

Wyoming 17

I'm going to hit it this week. Malik will play most of the 3rd and Arch will play most of the 4th. Wright gets to finish this one.

Texas 66

Opponent 13

 

[Baron]

I'm going for a duplication of the Rice score. Wyoming could be a clone of Rice and I expect a slow start from Texas just like the Rice game. 37-10.

If Texas blows out Wyoming then I'm going to start thinking similarities to 2005. Think about it, Bama was our Rose Bowl vs. Michigan.

 

[Hiwood]

conventional thinking is that Texas has a letdown....but the current odds are Texas - 28.5 but the Over/Under is only 49

Im an unconventional guy and I smell a rat

so my pick is 

Texas 40

Wyoming 7

 

[Coot]

Texas  38 - 10 Wyoming

 

[Sirhornsalot]

 

[Dillohorn1]

UT 35   WU 17

 

[NEOkHorn]

Neyor, Red, Arch, Malik, and A. Hill all score their first TD as Horns. Wy scores a garbage time TD late to close out a 52-13 Texas romp in front of a raucous home crowd. It's a new day and a new attitude on the Forty.

I like the Neyor pick. I think Sark is going to try to force it his way at some point in this game. We saw him giving Kielan some chances for redemption against Bama last weekend.
