I agree with Murph....what?

He listed excellent examples of why Boise State fans can be defensive.

I too believe Broncos fans have a right to be a defensive. I get tired of the same old lame comments about JC status, smurf turf, trick plays, weak conference, easy schedule, blah blah blah…

Boise State has proven to be a winner at every level of college football they have played at, period.
You can’t discount that.

Boise State - The best in all the land (The "land" being Idaho, and large parts of California, Oregon, and Nevada.)

I agree the schedule agrument is tired. I’ve argued that for years. Winning is winning.

The Fresno QB story link goes to the Ames story.

But I did find this quote on Fresno State’s Facebook site:

"As I met with the quarterbacks I made it very clear I don’t want them looking over their shoulder," said Hill. "I don’t want them thinking they have to impress us. They need to execute the offense and let the game come to them. I also made it clear that because of our talent at quarterback if the team is struggling or for some reason the quarterback productivity is lacking, I will not hesitate to bring in the back-up if I feel he can change the game and win for us. I would have done that in the past if I felt we had that type of player on the sideline."

An then this quote from the Fresno Bee:

“There are times when a starting pitcher is pulled for a relief pitcher,” Hill said. “We’re in a position now, we can bring someone off the bench and hopefully win the game for us.”

So you don’t want the starter looking over his shoulder, but you will always have someone warming up in the bullpen? Now I feel a lot better about playing Fresno in the month of September.

He has to.

"There are times when a starting pitcher is pulled for a relief pitcher," Hill said. "We’re in a position now, we can bring someone off the bench and hopefully win the game for us."

This sounds very much like what the WAC had to do against us all season last year. Gerald Alexander or Funaki? GTech transfer to La Tech or whoever is in there now (I’m at school, I’m not looking it up).

My guess is that Boise State will make it easy for Coach Hill to use both quarterbacks. Although, come third quarter, we’ll probably have to be using our 2nd/3rd stringers, too.

Greg Alexander, but I get your point...

Thanks, fixed the link

Yes, I’m not sure when Pat Hill crossed the line from genius coach to quasi-nutjob, but he’s definitely crossed it.

On a brighter note, Tom Brandstater is starting for the Denver Broncos this weekend!

One of the many reasons I find the Pro game uninteresting…

"Well, we'll just have to get to know each other a little better then. I like Ferris wheels, college football, and anything that goes more than 200 miles an hour."
