Traveling to the “Dome of Doom” in Laramie Wyoming has been a business-as-usual trip for the Aztecs in recent years. Winners of nine straight and five of six in Laramie, the Aztecs have pretty much owned this series in recent years. A similar outcome was generally expected this time, except Wyoming, (0-3 in conference play and 5-10 overall) heading into the game had different ideas. The Cowboys kept the game close during the first half, trailing by one at 43-42. Despite having starters Graham Ike (foot injury) and Hunter Thompson (mono) out, the Cowboys needed to be a bit more unconventional in their approach.
