Match Details
- Date: 2025-10-25
- Time: 11:30 PM UTC
- Location: Home (Laramie, WY)
Game Overview
Interstate MWC rivalry between two teams with nearly identical conference records (1-2 MWC) but marginally better overall mark for Wyoming (3-4 vs. 2-5). Both offenses are limited, but Wyoming's defense is statistically superior (55th in points allowed, 22.6 ppg), while Colorado State has shown more vulnerability on both sides of the ball.
Key Factors to Consider
- Wyoming averages 20.0 ppg (117th NCAA) and allows 22.6 ppg (55th NCAA); Colorado State has a similar offense but a worse defense. Wyoming's rushing attack (149.4 ypg) could exploit Colorado State's weakness against the run, with Samuel Harris as lead rusher[1].
- No recent H2H details or trends available in search results.
- No injury updates available in search results, but both teams are assumed healthy for this analysis.
- Wyoming at home, which typically adds a small advantage in college football, especially in cold-weather games (Laramie elevation/late October).
- Both teams are on the fringe of bowl eligibility; Wyoming's better record and home-field edge likely give them slightly more urgency.
