Wyoming @ Tulsa preview

After snapping a 13-game road losing streak in a win at San Jose State, Tulsa returned home and was soundly defeated by Oklahoma State, its second Power-Five conference opponent of the year. The Golden Hurricane will now host an undefeated Wyoming team that won on the road against Missouri in its season opener.

One of Wyoming's weaknesses can play to Tulsa's strength. The Cowboys rank third-to-last in the FBS in passing yards allowed, getting scorched to the tune of 342.3 yards per game. Tulsa quarterback Zach Smith has started the season strong, throwing for 664 yards and three touchdowns compared to just one interception in three starts. Smith went down late in the Oklahoma State contest, but was listed as the starter in the team's Tuesday two-deep.
