Wyoming vs. Colorado State Rivalry Extended Through 2035

The historic 'Border War' rivalry between Wyoming and Colorado State will continue through 2035 despite conference changes, with a scheduling agreement announced for non-conference games starting in 2028. The rivalry, which began in 1899, features the 'Bronze Boot' trophy and is among the oldest in college football. This year's meeting marks the 116th encounter and the 79th consecutive season since 1946. Wyoming's leading rusher and tackler are set to play key roles against Colorado State, whose tailback and linebackers have also been standout performers this season. Both teams are optimistic about filling potential gaps in 2026 and 2027, ensuring an uninterrupted rivalry. The ROTC programs of both universities uphold the tradition by conducting the ceremonial 'Boot Run' with the game ball each year.
