    The 1962 Wyoming Cowboys football team was an American football team that represented the University of Wyoming in the new Western Athletic Conference (WAC) during the 1962 NCAA University Division football season. Under first-year head coach Lloyd Eaton, the Cowboys played their home games on campus at War Memorial Stadium Laramie, Wyoming. They compiled a 5–5 record (2–2 in WAC, third), and outscored their opponents 165 to 143.[1][2]

    Previously the defensive line coach for five seasons, Eaton was promoted when Bob Devaney departed for Nebraska in February.
