Jeff Linder's young Cowboys gave top-ranked San Diego State all they could handle in the quarterfinals Thursday. In the end, the No. 19 Aztecs made plays. UW didn't. The Cowboys fell, 69-66.

Jared Newland joins the show this week to chat about the masterful coaching job Linder did, completely changing the game plan against the Aztecs in comparison to the 111-point offensive outburst the day prior against San Jose State.

We discuss the bright future of this program and the players who could make Wyoming into a real contender in this league as soon as next March.

Hear what Linder and Xavier DuSell had to say about the Pokes' near-upset and what to expect next fall with this entire roster returning.
