Was going through my recorder after Wyoming’s 17-16 win over Colorado State and thought I would share these quotes with you:
“I almost threw up I was so excited.” — UW senior offensive tackle Ryan Otterson on how he felt after the game ended.
“This is the best. I took a team not supposed do anything and look what they’ve done. The saddest thing is we only have one more opportunity with these seniors. The job that they’ve done leading this football team is second to none.” — UW coach Dave Christensen.
“Quote me, please. That was a fiasco in the first half. There wasn’t anybody doing anything on either side. There wasn’t anyone on the field doing anything good in the first half. They should dock us all a month’s pay for that.” — CSU coach Steve Fairchild on the fact his team had seven penalties for 49 yards in the first half.
“They were taking away something that belongs to us. We’re going to get it back, though.” — CSU freshman defensive end C.J. James on watching UW coming over to the CSU sideline and taking the Bronze Boot traveling trophy after the game.”
“Unbelievable. I said Monday I wasn’t going to know until I got out here. It started before the game even started. It’s exciting and an awesome thing to be a part of. The next three years are going to be fun playing these guys.” — UW true freshman quarterback Austyn Carta-Samuels on his first Border War.
“I get one more (game) with all these guys. That’s all you can ask for.” — UW senior linebacker Weston Johnson.
“I don’t care in the least bit.” — Johnson on which bowl game he would like to play in.
See Sunday’s paper on more from the Border War, and also from UW men’s basketball as it tries to bounce back in its own World Vision Challenge after a 75-73 loss to Monmouth Friday night. Cowboys take on Hampton at 7:30 tonight at the Arena-Auditorium.
