Wyoming preview: Put another log on the fire!

Frog Fans et al:

From just south of the Colorado-Wyoming state line on Interstate 25, here's your scouting report on the Wyoming Cowboys and other factors like, say, the weather.

• Gametime weather is looking like mid-20s with snow blowing west to east at 30 to 40 mph. The cross wind will make it tough on those throwing and kicking the ball.
  
• Wyoming's freshman quarterback Brett Smith has breathed life into the Cowboys' offense. They are truly a balanced attack and Smith can run. Last week against San Diego State, Wyoming racked up 396 yards and 30 points in the first half! They are dangerous.
  
• On the other side if the ball, not so much. The Cowboys' D is giving up 30 points per game and 440 yards per contest. They also have suffered from the "big play flu," most recently giving up a 99-yard touchdown run last week to San Diego State running back Ronnie Hillman. Hello, Ed Wesley!
  
• TCU's defense is improving rapidly and pressure is better each week. Look for the Wyoming freshman quarterback to get a big dose of Frog heat on this cold day.
  
• Saturday is National College Football Day. I know you may not have realized that this holiday is upon us, so fire up the grill and enjoy a beverage in honor of the great game of 100 yards and the oblong spheroid.
  
• We're on the air tomorrow at noon Central Time on the TCU Sports Network. Tune in for a temperature and wind chill update.
  
• And put another log on the fire, boys. It's going to be a cold one tonight!
