The Wyoming Cowboys kick off their 2024 season against Arizona State this Saturday at 8:30 p.m. at Mountain American Stadium, marking the head coaching debut of Jay Sawvel. He aims to become the first UW coach since 1962 to win his first game on the road. With 16 returning starters, the Cowboys look to overcome last year's inconsistency, while the Sun Devils, who finished 3-9, have bolstered their roster through the transfer portal. Sawvel emphasizes the need for quarterback Evan Svoboda to remain poised as he leads the team against a more competitive ASU. The outcome could impact the Cowboys' strength of schedule and playoff prospects in the expanded College Football Playoff format.
