Wyoming and BYU come into the Poinsettia Bowl under different circumstances.

The Cowboys have lost three of their last four games, while BYU football has won seven of its final eight games.

I’m not sure if momentum can carry over nearly a month, but if it can, the edge goes to the Cougars.

It’s also worth noting that one of those Wyoming losses was a 56-35 shellacking at the hands of New Mexico, so it’s safe to say that game was a letdown.

Meanwhile, the Cougars haven’t lost since Oct. 20, when they fell just short to Boise State on the road.

The Cougars and Cowboys kick off on Dec. 21 at 7 p.m. The Poinsettia Bowl can be viewed on ESPN.
