Football

It may be something that you take for granted when watching football, but it might be the biggest key of all. What is it? The snap. It starts every play and is very critical as to whether a play is run correctly or possibly ruined from the beginning. During this spring practice, the Wyoming Cowboy football team is trying to find a new center to trigger each play. It's a competition that has a good chance of carrying over into fall camp this August.

The Wyoming Cowboys conducted their second spring practice on Wednesday morning with the emphasis continuing on fundamentals and increasing the pace of practice. Fifth-year Wyoming head coach Dave Christensen liked the improvement of his team from day one to day two of spring drills, but still emphasized after practice the need for his team to continue to improve each and every day of the Cowboys’ 15 spring practices.

Considering the San Francisco 49ers just released former Pro Bowl kicker David Akers, maybe the team should take a look at high school kicker Jonathan Semerene. The Florida prep school kicker can nail a 70-yard field goal, in the wind.

University of Wyoming head football coach Dave Christensen announced Wednesday new coaching and administrative responsibilities for members of his football staff, including the official hiring of three new assistant coaches. One of the key changes is that Christensen will call the plays on game day for the Pokes.

Wyoming football will have a new offensive coordinator for 2013. New Mexico State announced on Friday that it has hired Gregg Brandon as the Aggies' new offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

Head Coach Dave Christensen announced his fifth recruiting class at Wyoming on Wednesday. The 2013 class is composed of 11 recruits on offense, 11 on defense and 1 special teams recruit. The signees include 15 high schooler, 7 junior college transfers and 1 walk-on who was awarded a scholarship.

Looks like Super Bowl 2013 is already causing controversy. During the second quarter, Ravens centerback Cary Williams shoved a referee who tried to get into a pile up.

The Football Fanatic Foto Frenzy contest has come to an end.  The winner has been named and that person will be watching the big game this year on a brand new 46" flat screen TV!

Wyoming head football coach Dave Christensen and his coaching staff will announce the 2013 University of Wyoming football recruiting class in a 3:00 p.m. press conference on Wednesday, Feb. 6. The press conference will be held in the Wildcatter Stadium Club & Suites in War Memorial Stadium, and will be open to the public.

Bad news Ravens' fans. It looks like Ray Lewis might be thrown under the PED bus, so to speak. A new report indicates that he may have used a banned subtance to get back on the field quicker.
