7220sports.com Kickoff Show: Show Me Something Good

SAN JOSE, Calif., -- What Evan Svoboda are we getting this week?

The guy who was on target in the second half of the win over Air Force or the erratic gunslinger who tossed two costly interceptions, including one that was returned for six, in the first quarter of a disheartening 27-24 home loss last Saturday against San Diego State?

Jay Sawvel again this week gave his embattled signal caller a vote of confidence. The head coach isn't giving up on Svoboda just yet.

Cody Tucker and Jared Newland discuss the quarterback question, along with a plethora of injuries that have steadily mounted since the opening loss at Arizona State. Can Wyoming slow down San Jose State's "spread and shred" offense Saturday in the Bay Area? The Spartans have won five of six in the series. UW hasn't won inside CEFCU Stadium since 1996.

University of Wyoming’s Top 50 Football Players

During the summer of 2021, 7220Sports.com counted down the Top 50 football players in University of Wyoming history, presented by Premier Bone & Joint Centers, Worthy of Wyoming.

The rules are simple: What was the player's impact while in Laramie? That means NFL stats, draft status or any other accolade earned outside of UW is irrelevant when it comes to this list.

This isn't a one-man job. This task called for a panel of experts. Joining 7220's Cody Tucker are Robert Gagliardi, Jared Newland, Ryan Thorburn, and Kevin McKinney.

We all compiled our own list of 50 and let computer averages do the work. Think BCS -- only we hope this catalog is fairer.
