Boise State vs. Idaho State open comment thread

So, I just got the Idaho Statesman’s gameday email in my inbox. Too bad I already purchased a newspaper and read all the stories. Anyone else sign up for that?

FYI: Brian Murphy’s prediction for the game is 52-3. And yes, I listened to his 1 minute, 30 second podcast to find that out. You’re welcome, Statesman A/V Club.

I really thought Appalachian State was going to show up a little bit more for the game against LSU like they did for Michigan…

I guess either LSU prepared themselves in a big way for the game or Michigan really sucked last year.

My vote’s for the second option. It’s not that I hate Michigan, well, ok I do hate Michigan and I hope they lose today big time to Utah.

There’s just something about those helmets that makes me want to smack somebody.

I’m really hoping Bowling Green has a good showing against Pitt. A Green win would be a big boost for BSU’s chances of getting into the rankings within three weeks.

Hawaii’s down 14-0 to Florida midway through the second. Not bad considering they are supposed to be getting killed.

@ BFF: yes, Michigan was that bad.

@ Zac: BG should give them all they can handle, said the biased BSU fan.

Bowling Green looks impressive. It would be nice if they pulled off a win. I’m hoping La Tech shocks the world and shows up against Miss State.

Nice. Bowling Green got the upset. Looks to be a good game in a couple weeks.

@ Tron: I’m actually looking forward to watching LaTech play. It’s such a strange feeling.

The hotel I’m staying at has ESPN360. This is huge.

And, just in time for Bush Hamdan to overthrow Julian Hawkins twice but be described as a great leader by the KTVB staff

You got the 360? Sweet. What’d you think of the final Moore TD pass? Thing of beauty, right? I think we’re in good hands.

A few things I noticed:

Darryl Acrey is good, very very good!

Our offense, once in sync, is a thing of absolute beauty and confusion to defenses.

Good energy out there by the defense, however, there were a few times I saw some pretty blatant showboating and some pretty mean, disrespectful things, mostly in the first quarter. It actually made me kind of mad at the Broncos for being bullies and not good sportsmen. It was just a few guys, but they make the whole team look bad.

Moore is a very good passer and a quick kid. I was a little concerned about his throwing speed, but that doubt was answered on that sweet pass to Titus Young for 80 yards.

The offensive line I give a “B” this game. I saw some good holes opened up but I also saw some cave-ins that will definitely be exposed much more by good defenses we will face.

Overall, I was impressed. The team is so young, and it showed at times, but this will be a force to reckon with given a little more practice.
