For at least one more week the Falcons are contenders.
As has been the pattern all season, the Falcons came out with a long opening drive that included two fourth down conversions, one third down conversion, and a lot of running by Brad Roberts. 8 minutes and 18 seconds later, the Falcons had a 7-0 lead. Even during this drive, however, it was apparent yards weren’t going to be that easy to come by.
The Falcon defense came out strong and and immediately forced a three and out and on the second Wyoming drive, linebacker Vince Sanford forced a fumble by Sean Chambers which was recovered by Corvan Taylor at Wyoming’s 38 yard line.
