The game time for the Wyoming-Boise State football game on October 28 was finally set yesterday.
The Mountain West Conference has been holding back the announcement because of national television considerations. The contest will kick off at 3:30 p.m. It will be televised on FS2 from Albertsons Stadium in Boise, Idaho.
The announcement was made jointly by FOX and the Mountain West Conference on Monday afternoon.
Wyoming will enter the game with a 5-2 overall record and a 2-1 record in the Mountain West Conference. Boise State is 3-4 this season and is 2-1 in the Mountain West.
The Broncos lost a shocker in Fort Collins Saturday to Colorado State. The Rams trailed by 20 with 6:12 left to play and rallied for a 31-30 win with a Hail Mary touchdown pass in the final seconds. They also recovered an onside kick during the comeback.
Wyoming is coming off a heartbreaking loss of its own at Air Force. The showdown against undefeated conference foe, Air Force, was tied late in the fourth quarter, but Falcons running back John Lee Eldridge III scored on a 58-yard touchdown run with a little more than 2 minutes to play.
Air Force held on to win 34-27.
Boise State leads its all-time series against Wyoming 16-1 and has won six games in a row in the series.
