Huge upset.

I tell you what, going on the road is serious business in College Basketball.

I don't think they are elite or anything but they are more than just "meh".

I meant meh more in terms of where they have been ranked the whole time. I honestly don't think they are even top 15.

Their overall composite rank is 17th. Tjats about right imo

They manage to get some good athletes in there somehow.

Steve Fisher is a hell of a coach too.

Steve Fisher is a hell of a coach too.

He's done a nice job of proving it over the years. Set the bar high for himself in his first six games.

SDSU is a better team than Wyoming. IMO, having to travel there and play at elevation is a tough assignment for any team not having a deep bench. Anybody who has ever gone to 5,000 ft and try to do some cardio work is in for a big surprise.

Guess that had to be it, cause they were down double digits most of the night from the highlights I saw.

Never underestimate opponents on the road, in college hoops.

Speaking of the MWC, SDSU had better tighten things up before the Lobos realize they're 9-1 in conference play.

Laramie is about 7200'. GO POKES!

That's what I heard today. I can really see a huge advantage for the home team under those circumstances. Along with playing at home, the altitude take some getting used to. Training at altitude is one reason the Kenyens rarely lose at distance running.

The reality is that Wyoming is pretty damn good. They have 9 losses but only 1 by double digits and in their other 8 losses they have lost by a combined 34 points to teams like Colorado ( when Dinwiddie was healthy ), SMU, UNM 2x and 3 of their losses came in )T. Cowboys return pretty much everyone next year. Look for them to be dancing in 2015

This is the time of yr when it becomes extremely difficult to win on the rd. I still think San Diego st is a very good team and will make noise in the tourney

Wyo has dragged everyone down to their level. I dont know how they do what they do so well. especially at home. The just grind and grind and hang around til the end. Not so much in this particular game, but they have a tried and true system of making teams play their game.
