(Editor's note: Wyoming senior Jared Jarnagin, a middle linebacker, will file a weekly diary with ESPN.com throughout the season. For more on Wyoming, visit the Cowboys' official athletic site.) Oct. 6, 1999 Well, this was another great win for the Wyoming Cowboys.
It was a enjoyable 28-13 victory and the win improved us to 3-1 for the year. We are also getting very close to breaking into the Top 25. We played very well on defense and played a key role in the win.
In the first quarter Idaho moved the ball on us a little bit, but we held them to only three points. In the second quarter we went on a 28-0 scoring run. It started with a blocked field goal, which then ignited the defense for the rest of the half. We then had two interceptions, a fumble recovery and a blocked punt over the next few minutes. We went into the half with a 28-3 lead.
In the second half we didn't score any more points, but our defense was strong enough to hold onto the lead. We came up with another interception and some key fourth down stops.
Idaho was a very good team. It was good for us to get a solid win even though we didn't play the best that we could. This week we must step up and play more to our potential, for it is our second conference game. We need to come out and play a great game to continue our win streak, and stay on top of the conference.
