Wyoming scores on late drive to beat Air Force 35-27

LARAMIE, Wyo. -- Tyler Vander Waal 's redemption gave Wyoming its third straight win. Vander Waal came off the bench and tossed two touchdown passes, including the go-ahead score on a 22-yard strike with 1:09 left in the game, and rushed for two more TDs in leading Wyoming to a come-from-behind 35-27 victory over Air Force on a cold, snowy Saturday afternoon. Vander Waal, who replaced injured starter Sean Chambers in the first quarter, led the Cowboys on a nine-play, 58-yard drive for the winning score, and Xazavian Valladay added a 27-yard scoring run with 17 seconds left to seal the win after an Air Force turnover on its subsequent series. Vander Waal, who started the Cowboys' first seven games before being benched in favor of Chambers because of an anemic offensive performance, completed 14 of 26 passes for 225 yards. He had TD runs of 3 and 5 yards.
