The Wyoming Cowboys football team is hoping for its first win of the season Saturday against Toledo.  Wyoming lost last week to nationally ranked Texas and while Toledo lost to Arizona.
 
Wyoming Head Coach Dave Christensen said that the Rockets are well coached and will will present a number of challenges.
 
“They are gonna come in with two very good Quarterbacks, both do an excellent job of executing their offense," Christensen said. "They’ve got team speed at the skill positions and defensively, so we are looking forward to the game.”
 
Christensen is looking for the Cowboys to cut down on turnovers and to improve their kicking game.  Kickoff is at two in Laramie.
