Poke Basketball Preview & Prediction: Mountain West Tournament Edition

The Wyoming Cowboys will open the 2022 Mountain West Conference tournament Quarterfinals on Thursday versus the Runnin’ Rebels of UNLV.

The Cowboys finished their regular season with a 24-7 record, good for the #4 seed in the Mountain West Tournament. The last time the Pokes were a four seed heading into the conference tournament was back in 2015 when they ended up winning it for the first time ever by beating the San Diego State Aztecs in the championship game. While the Pokes have been a bit grounded of late going 3-3 in their last 6 games, it seems that they’re still right where they’d like to be, given their tournament history.
