Edwards became the only coach in Cowboy history to win at least 20 games in his first two seasons as head coach. Wyoming was once again a potent offense last season averaging almost 80 points per game. Wyoming also tied an NCAA record a season ago going 6-0 in overtime joining Chattanooga (1989) to win six games in overtime over a single season.
Thursday’s game is the second meeting between the two schools. The Cowboys defeated Cougars in a regular season game on December 5, 2016 in the Arena-Auditorium 67-60.
