The University of Wyoming football team lost against Arizona State this weekend.
Coach Jay Sawvel said the Cowboys couldn’t come back from a pair of early turnovers, but eventually racked up seven points in a late game touchdown. Final score: Wyoming 7, Arizona 48.
“We have a lot of work to do, obviously,” Sawvel said during a weekly press conference. “No one around here will hang their head about it, but everybody around here owns it. Acknowledges the fact that we do have a lot of work to do and we got to get that done starting this week.”
Sawvel said he received an email after the game saying “they hope that I got shot.”
It’s Sawvel’s first season as head coach.
The first home game is this Saturday at 1:30 p.m. against Idaho. Fans are encouraged to wear gold to the game.
