Good test coming up for Tech as they visit Wyoming next...Colorado beat them at Wyoming, so I would expect Tech to do the same...

I think this will be a tough game to win. It also comes after a 10 day lay-off for finals, on the road, in the altitude. It is time again to get tested on the road and this should do it.

I expect Tech to win as well. Wyoming is much improved however, they do not have the athleticism to match Tech's.

FYI, the altitude in Laramie, WY is over 7,000 feet compared to 5,345 feet in Boulder.

Watching OU play over the past few years in high altitudes has yielded this belief for me:
the newcomers and freshmen, who have not experienced it, are typically the ones who have problems with it. Players that have played in higher altitudes and experienced the way one must pace their bodies seem to adapt more readily.

I, too, think it will be a tough test. Even though the layoff is uncomfortably long, I am glad the team has a little time to come down off the high the Creighton win has given them. I definitely believe the altitude will be a factor. Hopefully we have enough warm bodies to overcome the drain on their systems.
