Boise State pulled off a 19-8 victory over Oregon Thursday night, and they did so in dominant fashion, completely shutting down the Duck offense and QB Jeremiah Masoli. The Broncos reached the end zone on a Kellen Moore TD to Austin Pettis and a D.J. Harper run, and they held Oregon to only 152 total yards on the night.
What did you think of the win? What about Blount's punch on Byron Hout? Did the low score surprise you? The turnovers?
Discuss your reaction to the game in the comments. I'll be back in a little bit with some stats, feedback, and more.
Go Broncos!
(UPDATED: 2:02AM 9/4, reaction added)
LeGarrette Blount shows more fight postgame than he did in four quarters combined
Blount finished the night with eight carries for (minus)-5 yards, including some pretty epic failures, getting tackled in his own end zone and failing to pick up a critical fourth and short. And for the trifecta? How about punching an opposing player?
"I just apologize to anyone watching that," Blount said. "I just apologize to all of our fans and all of Boise's fans. That's something I shouldn't have done. I lost my head."
Uh, ya think?
Blount's actions were reprehensible and quite embarrasing, and they should be dealt with accordingly. I wouldn't be surprised to see him miss a significant amount of time for his actions. Of course, with college football being the way it is today, I also wouldn't be surprised to see him miss very little time. What are your thoughts? Weigh in on the poll or in the comments.
Here's my final take: It's a shame that Blount's actions took attention away from a stunning, dominant Boise State victory. ESPN's headline put it best:
Postgame punch mars No. 14 Boise State's commanding win over No. 16 Oregon
It might have marred the win, but I'm not going to let it mar this recap. Onward and upward, Bronco fans! We have other topics to hit touch on!
A million Schrutebucks to the defensive line
In the words of Tommy Callahan, "That. Was. Awesome."
Billy Winn? You are an animal. Chase Baker? I want to fold you up and carry you around in my pocket. Ryan Winterswyk? Jarrell Root? Others? Insane, incredible, ridiculous. The game was won and lost in the trenches Thurday night, and the trench battle went completely in Boise State's favor.
Oregon having no first downs for the game's first 37 1/2 minutes? No one could have ever seen that coming. The Ducks as a team rushed for only 31 total yards, 17 of which came on a LaMichael James sweep. The read option didn't work because of the solid play from the defense and the disruption of the line. The Oregon passing game was a wreck, too, thanks to the pressure supplied by the front four, among others. It was a tour de force for the Bronco D-line, and it was a performance for the ages.
Offensive line finds its rhythm, possibly its consistent lineup
Boise State's D-line wasn't the only line that looked stellar on Thursday. The running game clicked thanks to a yeoman's effort from the big uglies up front, controlling the line of scrimmage and making way for tough yards for the running backs.
The running game wasn't flashy, except for a long D.J. Harper scamper, but it was effective. The O-line got the push it needed to keep the offense moving forward - something it didn't do effectively on the ground the last time the two teams met.
Specifically, I noticed the solid play of Will Lawrence at LG. Anyone else pick out any linemen who stood out?
I lost a lot of respect for Jeremiah Masoli Thursday night
It might seem like rubbing it in at this point, but it needs to be said: Masoli needs to do a better job standing in the pocket when there is pressure. He was ducking and diving and shying away from contact all night long whenever there were Broncos in his face. It was horrible to watch. It was quarterbacking at its worst. And he's supposed to be one of the nation's best? I didn't see it on Thursday night.
Other miscellaneous thoughts
- Austin Pettis caught at least two balls that seemed destined for picks.
- Avery and Harper have a knack for contorting their bodies so that they always fall forward. Harper was dead to rights on his touchdown run, hemmed in by three defenders, but he spun to the inside and fell just over the goalline. Those little yards might not seem like much at the time, but they add up.
- Oregon fans are taking it about as well as you'd expect.
- What's eating Kyle Brotzman? I almost thought it was Jimmy Pavel time there for a second.
- Put Brotzman sure did redeem himself with that punt down to the four yard-line. That kick was clinical.
- Talk to me about Billy Winn's safety. Was that the greatest moment of the game by a little bit or by a lot?
- Kellen Moore should have won some fans tonight with his moxie and touch. He sent some pretty beautiful passes into the Boise night sky. <sigh>
- Two-point conversions sure are fun when they work.
- Kudos to Winston Venable, Aaron Tevis, and Derrell Acrey for having solid games. Kyle Wilson, too, but that's kind of to be expected.
I'm calling it a night, friends. I'll come back strong tomorrow with some more thoughts and chat at you in the comments. Thanks to everyone (including several visitors) who joined the GameThread and made it the most commented post in OBNUG history. Over 330 comments!

Hey, I’m willing to bet you’re going to get A LOT of haters and jerks on AtQ for the whole Blount thing. If any of them are Broncos, tell them that OBNUG hates them.

Congratulations
As a Duck fan, I haven’t enjoyed an evening so much since the night I came home after having gall-bladder surgery. (But at least then I had a vial of T3s.)
You guys deserved the win on every level. I was actually pretty impressed with Oregon’s defense—-spending roughly 90% of the game on the field and holding Kellen and BSU to 19 points—-but not nearly as impressed as I was with your defense. I think our team looked nervous (both teams did, actually), but all credit to the boys in blue. And here’s hoping for a sweep through the WAC and a BCS berth.
And as for Blount — no defense.
"Heaven and earth alike revolt against a parched and withered duck." (Stephen Maturin)
Criminal!
It looks like he knocked Hout’s tooth out. The last thing that I saw was Blount being hauled off by a cop.
Ridonkulous!
Retaliation?
I am not sure what Hout said to Blount. From the look on Coach Pete’s face, it must have been a comment about “@$$ Whuppin’”. If so, it was uncalled for. I think Coach will correct that during practice. As a Bronco fan, I will be rooting for the ducks during their conference games (I haven’t decided to root for them during their non-conf match-ups).
I whole lot of mistakes on both sides of the ball today. I am glad now that weplayed Oregon before they worked the kinks out of the TZR roles. Both teams will play better this year after studying the tapes.

rec'd for retribution!
Boise State - The best in all the land (The "land" being Idaho, and large parts of California, Oregon, and Nevada.)
So after the incident at the end of the game...
I should suspect that both schools would a bit less, uh…eager to resume the series until the intensity can cool a little. that’s a shame. We have a WVU/Virginia Tech type rivalry brewing here.
ok ok...
so im going to boast a little bit. Im not going to tell you i said to “MARK THAT DOWN” that neither team will score over 30 points… oh wait, i did. On the other hand I had no idea neither team would score 20.
Moving on…. Ducks are now my 2nd favorite team. Win the Pac-10… or atleast win enough to make our win respectable.
Linebacker questions? Solved.
D-Line Questions? Solved.
O-line Questions? Solved… ok ok maybe im jumping the gun, im still excited.
Oh, and one last thing— how bout that color scheme eh? I thought it worked out much better than i thought.
Ditto on the color scheme. It worked out well than I thought but I hated the “white” color…
by Magnanimous M@tt on Sep 4, 2009 12:41 AM PDT up reply actions
ditto.
I had to whear white and I observed 2 things:
- I felt like I was wearing the visiting teams colors (because I was)
- If you have visiting team colors in the your section, they stick out far easier in white than they would in Orange or Blue.

Congrats broncos
1st great game the better team won both games.
2nd Blount should be kicked off the team.
3rd I hope boise state and the rest of the nation doesnt judge uo on one very very sour apple.
Congrats again and good luck with the rest of the season

wow
wow. Blount….. I’m , disappointed in you. A lot more than I am in Brotz. Lets just call this game the game that blew the minds of boise state fans. look, we are proud of our team, but damn. I never expected 18-9, not against the taser and Oregon speed………………….wow
well
as crazy as that blount thing was:
1) The defense was AMAZING. There is no way Oregon is that bad, BSU’s defense was spectacular. Which is way cool.
2) D.J. Harper looked better than Jeremy Avery
3) Like last year, the O-Line had very good pass protection, iffy run-blocking
4) Doesn’t look like a drop-off from the WRs
5) WTF happened to the special teams???
oh also
Kellen Moore was non-immortal. Not sure whose fault the fumbles were, but add that to the lack of a deep threat receiving (with Titus Young playing) and Moore – while awesome – definitely has some shortcomings.
I disagree
I thought the O-line looked much more solid this year than last year. I thought Matt Slater and Mike Ames played a heckuva game especially pass protecting and our interior boys (Will Lawrence in particular) did well run-blocking
Now we didnt have any massive holes (except that one Harper run, he looked great by the way) but they consistently got the push for a 3 to 4 yard carry almost every single time, to have that whenever you want is HUGE. I can honestly say we could line up on the 2 and run a HB Dive to Harper, Martin… even Kevan and I would bet on getting in everytime, thats how explosive they looked. Not as much so in the 2nd half because the defense was keying on it because they knew Coach Pete was going to play conservative and run the clock, but overall I was very impressed.
Kudos to Oregon Fas
First, every Oregon fan I encountered (before and after the game) was nothing but a great oregon fan full of respect and ready to watch a good game… To you, I commend you!
Blount however is a sissy. I’m not going to go crazy and say that the entire Oregon team are criminals (like we’ve heard for a year) but HE is. What a loser!
And my favorite part of the game is the fact that we left at least 14 points on the field! Good things are coming in the future… I do not envy you Miami of Ohio!!
Good luck the rest of the year Oregon!!! I’ll be rooting for you!
Someday I hope to look in a mirror and see something special... something like a coach pete protoge'.

Ok, I hyperventilated and passed out after the game, but I’m OK now.
WOW…. anyone who watched the game realizes BSU DOMINATED that game. I love that the offense showed a TON of potential despite VERY sloppy play. We have the tools, gentlemen it’s time to execute.

God the second hald was boring
I believe 5 consecutive series that ended in turnovers, or something like that?
But yeah, our defense kicked ass. O-Line wasn’t opening many holes for the RBs, but the backs were grinding it out for 3-4 yard gains anyway, good to see. If the line can seal off some of those defenders, watch out!
The Oregon fan that was trash-talking with my group left the bar in the 2ND QUARTER! I guess he couldn’t take it.
Good Job Broncos
From a Duck Fan:
Great game Broncos! You have a great team and I hope you go far in the BCS this year. Chris Peterson and Justin Wilcox are class acts.
As a Duck I’m embarrassed by Blount. He is not representative of our team or our fans. I hope Chip Kelly gives him the boot.
Good luck with the rest of your season.
Already god Oregon's Excuse...
Boise Players are racist…and so are there fans…if they weren’t, we would have one. If they weren’t racist, they wouldn’t have stopped the run, wouldn’t hat stopped our QB…and wouldn’t have been so effective in the running/passing game against us. So clearly they are racist and why our running back sucker punched their player for asking him where the ass whoopin was that he had promised.
If playing in blue uniforms on a blue field is an unfair advantage, then isn't wearing green uniforms on a green field also an unfair advantage?
obviously by "god" I mean "got"
however, when we are talking about oregon fans….

Yeah, no excuse for Blount, I mean.
As for Hout, I bet Coach Pete gets on him a bit, too. You can see he was yanking him away even before the punch. He doesn’t want him being that way.

What happens to Hout?
I was thinking the same thing about Hout. I wonder if Coach Pete punishes Hout in some way.
Watch out BCS...one day Boise State will be National Champs.
He will. Count on it.
Hout probable will get discipline in practices or suspend for one game.
Even Blount’s action was worse but I hope Coach Pete wouldn’t accept that kind of behavior from any players on the team…
by Magnanimous M@tt on Sep 4, 2009 12:52 AM PDT up reply actions
I’m kind of half-expecting Coach Pete to announce disciplinary measures on Hout (maybe a game suspension?) before Oregon does for Blount. Which may only be fair because Blount’s case is more serious and should be deliberated more.

First attended game.
Some of our BSU fans are jerks!
An Oregon fan is walking along an isle minding his business and a Boise fan walking in the opposite direction slams his shoulder into said Oregon fan and makes him fall into a bunch of older ladies. The BSU fan keeps walking along as if he’s so big and tough… The Oregon fan had to apologize and I told him sorry and that I wanted to rip the other guys head off.

That’s a very sad thing. Unfortunately, there are many fans, Oregon included, that do that same thing. I hope that places like here and ATQ can try to stamp out such behavior, because it has no place in collegiate sports. Oh yeah, and neither does the actions of my teams star running back.

Congrats to a well played game Broncos
I wish that Oregon could have shown better. BSU was better prepared and executed better for the second year in a row. Good luck with the rest of the season!

Embarrassed Duck Fan
Duck Fan here,
I just wanted to stop bu and tell you from a Duck fan that what we all saw tonight was the most pathetic display of college sportsmanship. I don’t care what was said in possible taunting by BSU to Blount, that should never happen. I for one (and it sounds like I am not alone) want to see him kicked off the team for good.
Aside from the game, OBNUG is a class act blog. Thanks for the write ups with ATQ. Best of luck in the rest of the season. The sad thing is, you most likely will go undefeated and and never see the NC. Fiesta most likely.
We're not done!

Texas is at Wyoming this year. You go to some of these programs twice, and they’ll visit you. I think it’s well worth it for you guys to showcase your program.
If you guys travel to enough AQ schools and knock them off, they’ll come to you.
Keep it up, you guys are good for college ball.
Congratulations
Pre-game I thought Oregon would win, but I said their coach had to show he was prepared and I lay the blame on his absolutely being outcoached and unprepared. no first downs and less than 30 yards in the first half? Simply amazing.
I am sure he will grow well into that job, but Peterson was prepared for anything and mixed it up well against a Ducks defense that obviously had some athletes—great running plays by BSU. After the first half, I expected an even more lopsided score.
Your defense was masterful, fans pumped, and you have a great team, program, and system.
You guys are awesome at home, simply awesome. No one will want to play there.
Hats off, well done, here’s to a fine season.
Utah State, by the way, will not compete head to head with you this year, but Coach Anderson there has improved that team by quite a bit. Still not a good team, but the athleticism improvement over last year was amazing. And that is good for the WAC and for you guys.
Broncos to win out, and get the nod.
Well played, deserved win.

rec'd for the compliments.
Boise State - The best in all the land (The "land" being Idaho, and large parts of California, Oregon, and Nevada.)
I love the win. Hate the post game antics.
That’s all I’ll say about Blount from this point forward.
Boise State dominated the game from beginning to end.
Kevan, you said;
Oregon having no first downs for the game’s first 37 1/2 minutes? No one could have ever seen that coming.
I say that I did;
Where I believe the difference in the game will lie is in the Defenseand Special Teams. I’m predicting both to be off the charts tomorrow.
Now S/T wasn’t exactly as predicted, what with Brotzman having a Steve Christie style meltdown early on. But, I had a notion that the defense would have this type of turn out.
I was completely blown away at how stout they actually looked for all four quarters.
I’ll say it right now, If that keeps up, hello top rated defense in the country.
It was impressive.
I believe the Broncos will more than cover the spread. My paycheck says different.
I said it, now I wish I’d have put money on it. Shucksees.
I have faith in Kellen Moore and his stable of receivers. I believe the running game and O line will show the improvement we’re all hoping for.
I had absolutely no doubt in my above statement. To my surprise I witnessed the sloppiest offensive play since 2005 in Athens. I was worried. Kellen had diddle-fingers for a play or two and my jaw dropped.
D.J. HARPER. Did he look sharp or what? Didn’t we discuss his ability to be effective given the chance? I, all of the sudden, can’t wait for next week.
Coach Pete is sure to have gameplanned this to death. And its appears that Chip Kelly has some sort of handle on it too. I think Boise State has the edge here though.
I consider this quote of mine an major understatement. The edge Boise State held was immense, and you could see it from the first snap. What was up with the Oregon Offense? I think the Bronco D play a large part in making them look inept, but I saw very little spread option. And what happened to Masoli, Blount, James, Dickson and the bunch? They played scared to me. We’ve had Youtube videos posted with RB’s flooring Junior high school kids and all this talk of the prolific game plan of Chip Kelly, I saw NONE OF IT. Blue Turf Curse?
I went to bed well past 2:00am here in Kentucky with one thought. I can’t believe how thoroughly dominate my team looked tonight. It should have easily been 36-8 or more.
Through the sloppy ball handling and a couple bonehead decisions, the Offense with Kellen leading the way showed some brilliance. Especially the O line. Did you see Kellen run away from a defender? I loved it. I loved the defense even more. I signed off last night completely enamored by the Boise State Broncos.
Now on to Miami of Ohio… GO ORANGE…

rec'd for being right
Well done, Mikrino. You are king today for nailing everything you said about this game over the past few months. I’m actually quite happy for you.
"I eat success for breakfast - with skim milk!" - Tony Perkis
D.J Harper
I think my prediction about D.J. becoming the feature back is going to come true earlier than I thought.
Avery did very well as well.
Both those guys played BIG.
"I'd rather be a smartass than a dumbass."
DJ Harper has a breakout game, and Jeremy Avery doesn’t do to bad either.
I’d just like to point out that I was right here (or at least on the right track), and try my best to not draw attention to my extremely NOT right score predictions.
Also, I’d like to mention that I’m a little sick of the whining I’ve heard from BSU fans already. Brian Murphy’s column almost made me hurl. IT’S THE FIRST GAME! Yes, our offense was sloppy, but they showed a lot of promise. Coach Pete saw everything we did, and we all know he’s already working on getting things tightened up.
Anyways, great game. It’s so good to have football back, and (aside from the post-game antics, which I won’t go into) I can’t think of a better way to start the season.
Go Broncos!
"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."
Absolutely
It is natural for the defense to be way ahead of the curve when it comes to being in-sync early in the year, and the offense actually played a lot better than the scoreboard shows (missed field goals anyone?) Kellen is much too dedicated to allow himself to have multiple fumbles in supsequent games, I’d bet he and Thomas Byrd spend a lot of time before and after practice this week working on snaps from under center, I’m not too worried about it. I did wish Coach Pete would have opened up the pass game a little more but as he’s shown before he is much less interested in stats and style points then he is in grinding out teams to seal the deal, all in all I came away very pleased
My favorite play of the game.
Was when Masoli turned into a robot, then threw the interception. I wish I could find a clip, because it was as funny as it was weird and confusing.
Ridonkulous!

thoughts on the game
The headlines should have read, “Blount finally shows the Ducks have some fight in ’em”. What a pathetic performance. I would not be surprised if they drop out of the polls and the voters hold this against them for the rest of the season regardless of who the beat. Truth is, though I don’t condone what happened last night, especially how Blount acted after the punch to Hout, I do think Hout got what he desrved. And though I’m not from Eugene and have tried to become a Ducks fan for six years now, this may have won me over. I liked that Blount put Hout on his butt where he belonged. Reminds me of the old days where you mouthed-off and paid the price for it. Hout dropped like a cheap hooker.
Love Hatin the Broncos
I love that Blount tagged that guy… and dropped him like a stone. That guy was aggressively taunting. His coach was even trying to subdue him when the punch happened. Also, did you notice that every BS player just stood there. No one threw back. No one did anything… nice teammates. The Broncos are a cheap shot team. Other teams should just cheap shot and injure their players. I loved the punch but he should have done his cheap shot the Boise State way.
Here is my take on Boise state… they should NEVER be considered for a BCS game. They play the weakest schedule in division one. The WAC is a joke. My point is that if Boise State was in the SEC, Big 12, Big 10, or Pac 10, they would be a middle of the pack team. They would not run the table every year. They are a good program in the weakest conference. You cannot compare a year of WAC play to a year in any major conference. No serious CFB fan can be honest and say they would win any conference other than the WAC. They would not. They could not handle the pounding of an SEC or Big 12 season for sure.
So sick of them, their gimmicks, and that they are in the BCS debate. If you think I am wrong here are some stats for you to consider. Last year, the defending national champs, LSU went 8-5. They played five teams in the top 25 including #1 twice. They came in second in the western division of the SEC. I would put all my money on LSU over Boise State, probably any day. Boise State wont come close to a ranked opponent until they sneak into a bowl game in January. I wish it were early December but it probably wont be.
You guys are having fun, but know that the rest of America despises you and that disgusting rug on which you play.
So, you want to know what he said?
You know, Byron Hout, who got a fist in the face last night? As far as I can tell, with my incredible lip reading skills, the last two words he said before his mouth met LGB’s fist were ‘ass-whoopin’. I’ve showed it to two other people, and they both agree. From there, it’s pretty easy to figure out that the rest of the sentence was probably along the lines of:
“How about that ass-whoopin?”
Looks as if LGB doesn’t like to have his words thrown back at him.
"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."
