Morning paper: Boise State football links 8/26

We were sad to hear about the departure of Nick Lomax to greener and less competitive pastures, but we wish him luck. Sounds like he'll sit out this season and play again next fall.

Now it's time to start focusing on the Idaho State game on Saturday. We'll have some features on the Bengals coming up later today and the rest of this week, and we'll be unveiling an OBNUG first later today. Sorry for the purposeful vagueness, but we think you'll appreciate it.
