[QUOTE="aaeismacgychel, post: 1786263, member: 748794"] This was my takeaway as well. We looked much better than I expected and Wyoming looked much worse than I expected. While it is a rebuilding year for them, Wyoming generally has a very solid football team, one that certainly can hold their own against power conference competition, so seeing us dismantle them is both impressive for us and probably pretty scary for Wyoming fans. Our defensive coverage was superb today. We'll need to get more pressure on the QB from our front 4 for B10 play, but if we do, look out, as this might just be the best team in coverage we've seen since 2001. There just weren't a whole lot of gaps for Wyoming to fit the ball into. On offense, Devito looked really good to me. Calm and collected in the pocket, and a quick accurate delivery. Our RBs are the real deal and if our OL can win their battles in run protection against stacked boxes, similar to this game, Chase Brown will go for 100+ every game this season. Very solid 1st game and makes me a lot more optimistic against Indiana. We looked really good out there today. While we have an incredibly tough schedule this year, if we can consistently play like this, we'll make that bowl game. [/QUOTE]
