7220sports.com Kickoff Show: Pokes Going Streaking?
LARAMIE -- There was a lot more to talk about this week than what will likely be San Diego State's final game inside War Memorial Stadium.
Oh, we broke that down, too, but Cody Tucker and Jared Newland also took a look back at an impressive win over Air Force, the Cowboys first victory of the 2024 season, along with Mountain West expansion and Tom Burman's comments about conference realignment.
Wyoming's Director of Athletics was as open as he could be about the recent movement, including his thoughts on Utah State's departure, whether or not the Border War will survive this madness and his bluntness about the new-look Pac-12 never becoming a "Power-4" league.
