The stakes are high and so is the altitude as Boise State takes on Wyoming at 5 p.m. Saturday in Laramie’s War Memorial Stadium, which at 7,220 feet above sea level is the nation’s highest college football venue.
With a win, the Broncos (7-3, 6-0) can clinch the Mountain West’s Mountain Division and earn the right to host the conference championship game Dec. 3. A loss would give the Cowboys (7-3, 5-1) the inside track to the division title.
