Projection: likely out

Wyoming’s résumé reads like a team with flashes but not enough sustained quality, because the best moments — a neutral-site win over North Dakota State, a gritty road showing at Texas Tech and a true road victory at Air Force — are outweighed by damaging results such as an unexpected home loss to Grand Canyon and heavy conference setbacks to San Diego State plus road defeats at New Mexico, Nevada, Fresno State and Boise State. The nonconference slate is littered with comfortable wins over low-major opponents that do little to offset those bad losses, and the Cowboys have not built a body of work away from home that would impress a selection committee. Upcoming home games against San Jose State, Colorado State and Fresno State and a home date with Air Force give them clear chances to add resume-friendly wins, but looming road tests at Utah State, San Diego State, Boise State and Grand Canyon present immediate risks that could deepen the damage. That combination of weak signature wins, conspicuous home and road losses, and a remaining schedule that contains both help and meaningful danger is why the team sits outside the field.
