Wake up, Bronco Nation: Boise State football links and things, 12-19-11
Football returns to The Blue as Ohio beats Utah State in the final minute
This game actually turned out to be relatively entertaining. Utah State held a 23-10 lead midway through the 3rd quarter, but Ohio was able to pull back in it with some heaves from QB Tyler Tettleton. Bill Connelly breaks down the numbers from the game including Utah State's terrible field position down the stretch.
We will all miss Doug Martin's running style
Second only to Kellen Moore and a tad ahead the defensive line as a whole, I will miss watching Doug Martin and his aggressive, relentless running style. He came in like a breath of fresh air after the tail end of Ian Johnson's career when Ian seemed to get timid. Boise State has plenty of talent to bring in to replace Martin and they may very well be better in the long run, but I'll miss the way Martin punished defenders and broke tackles, rarely taking a loss on a run play. We'll miss you, Doug.

Weekends are always slow in terms of articles and such.
Kevan’s been pretty busy, as I understand it.

Well, I guess he can take a holiday with his family. But just this once.

Hmmm...I kind of feel like I might know something that some of my fellow Nuggies don't...
…I should probably keep my mouth shut though.

ok.
So he hasn’t written in 10 days…that just means he didn’t write. He hasn’t called in even longer, but that just means he didn’t call.
And he HAS been logging in….so should we be worried? Has some other blog kidnapped him? HOW MUCH do we have to pay to get Kevan back? Put me down for 1/2!

No need to panic...
…BTW, it seems a bit stalker-ish that you check his logins…just sayin’.

well Yeah! I was worried!

And besides, aren't profile pages there to be looked at? just sayin'.
Kevan is such a hilarious writer,…his sarcasm just kills me. You implied you knew more than other Nuggies, so I took that to mean he might not be returning…seems like folks just fade into the sunset some times. So, there I go, worrying after making an assumption. You’d think I’d learn.
"Grateful to the friends and the circumstances that enabled me to be a Bronco. I'm just glad I lived to see these days." SeniorChief
Well clearly he's back...
…what I know is actually nothing bad…quite the contrary. I just don’t know if it’s public knowledge with other Nuggies and my reason for knowing anything is pretty random.
