After one catch against San Jose State, Wallace had three catches for a career-best 47 yards with a long of 22 yards in the win over Idaho. The career-long 34-yard catch at TCU, two catches for 27 yards against New Mexico, and the two catches for 30 yards against Colorado State led to a breakout performance at Wyoming. He had career bests in both yards and catches with 7 catches for 66 yards.
