Not much to complain about these days. The Cowboys routed Nevada 42-6 Saturday night inside a chilly Mackay Stadium. That comes on the heels of a 42-9 beatdown of visiting Hawaii a week ago.

During this stretch, Craig Bohl's Pokes have rolled up 881 yards of total offense and 44 first downs. This defense has allowed just 85 rushing yards in those victories. The Rainbow Warriors scored one touchdown. Nevada, didn't.

Yes, these teams aren't the cream of the crop in the Mountain West. One of the biggest complaints from this fanbase, though, is when Wyoming plays down to its competition. That hasn't been an issue in late November.

Here are the rants and raves from the Pokes' regular-season finale:

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.
