Boise State - Nevada gameday comment thread

Welcome, Bronco fans, to one of the biggest Boise State gamedays all season long. We're glad you joined us. And we're glad you brought us a Blizzard.

First up today is the showdown between Boise State and Nevada (2:00, ESPN2, KTVB) in what everyone seems to think will be a close game. We'll see about that. Then, later on, Utah hosts BYU (4:00, The Mtn.) in a game that could very well decide Boise State's BCS fate. After those two games, a nap.

Come join us for our comment thread, and chat along throughout both games. We're anxious to hear what you have to say, and we're excited to see where the Broncos stand after today.

Finally, it's gameday!!

It is time for the naysayers and the Wolfpack to face reality.

by Belexes on Nov 21, 2008 10:56 PM PST reply actions  

The wolves will come out all fierce and snarling. Then a stampede of Broncos will trample them. My reasons for a Boise State win are: Avery, Johnson, Martin, Childs, Peretta, Winterswyk, Johnson-J, Williams, Gingg, Acrey, Hout, Iloka, Wilson, Thompson……need I say more? Nevada would win all their games, too with such talent (Texas Tech and Missouri-maybe). Oh yeah…..and Kellen Moore. He is the icing on the cake. Happy big loss on your home field Nevada!

I just hope the game is somehow in HD

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 12:28 AM PST reply actions  

And it's in standard definition stretched to widescreen, great

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:05 AM PST reply actions  

What running game!?!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:09 AM PST reply actions  

Great 3 and out to start the game including a sack on kaepernick

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:09 AM PST reply actions  

What is up with the clock?

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:13 AM PST reply actions  

Oh, the D is looking awesome!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:20 AM PST reply actions  

So, is it just you and me Nick?

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:23 AM PST reply actions  

that's called bush league production from KTVB

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:24 AM PST reply actions  

No kidding

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:25 AM PST reply actions  

Hell yeah, Peretta!

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:26 AM PST reply actions  

I'm already feeling better after that first TD

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:29 AM PST reply actions  

Boy, me too! I think they just need to keep throwing the ball until they ware out Nevada's D. Then maybe we'll see some good runs.

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:31 AM PST reply actions  

Nice kick

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:32 AM PST reply actions  

Someone needs to tell mark johnson that was incomplete

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:35 AM PST reply actions  

I was thinking the same thing

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:36 AM PST reply actions  

Maybe he's a little jittery about being on ESPN

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:37 AM PST reply actions  

14-0!!!!!!!!!!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:40 AM PST reply actions  

I do love me some Vinny Perretta

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:40 AM PST reply actions  

I'm thinking game MVP already

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:41 AM PST reply actions  

Lack of possessions? What is Tom Scott talking about?

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 1:41 AM PST reply actions  

I'm surprised that ESPN hasn't put up a disclaimer that this is Boise State's game feed so people will know why the announcers are so hommerish.

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:44 AM PST reply actions  

I wonder if Mark Johnson could have used a different gambling phrase than "crap-shoot" to describe this game…

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 1:48 AM PST reply actions  

Never mind I see it now

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 1:54 AM PST reply actions  

"And that cannon is loud here at Mackey Stadium!" -Mark Johnson

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 1:57 AM PST reply actions  

Maybe the airs a little bit lighter there, thats why the passes are sailing and the kicks are soaring.

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 2:03 AM PST reply actions  

There is the soft spot!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 2:09 AM PST reply actions  

There is the soft spot! Around the outside.

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 2:09 AM PST reply actions  

"Johnson on Johnson" – Mark Johnson
 
So is that a Johnson on Johnson on Johnson?

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 2:15 AM PST reply actions  

The Brotzman curse is over! (I hope)

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 2:20 AM PST reply actions  

I wonder if Boise State is going to beat Nevada, or if Nevada is going to beat themselves.

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 2:24 AM PST reply actions  

got to tack on another TD before the half

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 2:25 AM PST reply actions  

There you go

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 2:30 AM PST reply actions  

Where's all the offensive steamrolling they were supposed to do to us? Vinny Perretta stole it.

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 2:32 AM PST reply actions  

"This pistol offense is mis-firing today" – Mark Johnson

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 2:35 AM PST reply actions  

Tom Scott was jealous that Mark Johnson got to say that one first.

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 2:38 AM PST reply actions  

Kellen has 315 yards at the freakin' half. This game never lives up to its billing…outside last year's fluky tight game the Broncos own the Pack…always have.

by FightFightBSU on Nov 22, 2008 2:41 AM PST reply actions  

well said!

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 2:41 AM PST reply actions  

and Nevada only has 31 yards rushing at the half

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 2:43 AM PST reply actions  

Graham Watson is probably expecting a huge comeback and a whopping 50+ percent overall completion rating for Kaepernick.

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 2:48 AM PST reply actions  

Everywhere in Nevada, bookies are wailing and gnashing their teeth in despair. Bronco fans knew we would more than cover and I hope they make the bookies pay.

by Belexes on Nov 22, 2008 2:51 AM PST reply actions  

Look at all the open seats in the stadium! Poor Nevada fans.

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 3:00 AM PST reply actions  

Credit that int to Efaw

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 3:02 AM PST reply actions  

At least they didn't do anything with it!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 3:05 AM PST reply actions  

I'm still shocked how low it was

by Nick on Nov 22, 2008 3:06 AM PST reply actions  

Lets score.

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 3:13 AM PST reply actions  

That sucked!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 3:14 AM PST reply actions  

crap, I meant Boise State should
score.

by pretendhuman on Nov 22, 2008 3:14 AM PST reply actions  

OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHH IIIIIAAAANNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 3:20 AM PST reply actions  

That run had shades of last year

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 3:29 AM PST reply actions  

What is going on?!?!

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 3:39 AM PST reply actions  

Nevada doesn't even have 100 totoal yards in this game, BSU has 319 all passing

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 9:31 AM PST reply actions  

He only needs 44 more yards to hit 3000 yards for the season.

by goodhandsman on Nov 22, 2008 9:50 AM PST reply actions  

I bet half of the Nevada fans don't stay through half time.
