PrintThe Top 10 performances of Boise State football's 2010 season could just be a Kellen Moore season-in-review, but this OBNUG list is an equal-opportunity collection, except for kickers. But everyone else is eligible.
No. 10 - D.J. Harper, 24 carries for 125 yards and two touchdowns versus TCU. I forget how things turned out in this one.
No. 9 - Byron Hout, 18 tackles versus Air Force. Hat tip to Air Force for running that fullback dive play so many times.
No. 8 - Doug Martin, 200 yards and three touchdowns versus Colorado State. To be fair, everyone had a great performance against Colorado State; Martin just had his in about 10 minutes of work.
No. 7 - Kellen Moore, five touchdowns and no picks against UNLV. Oh, and that little all-time wins record.
No. 6 - Tyler Shoemaker, 10 catches for 130 yards and three touchdowns against San Diego State.
No. 5 - Kellen Moore, 85 percent completions and three touchdowns against New Mexico. Even after the New Mexico exchange rate, those numbers are pretty great.
No. 4 - Doug Martin, 301 all-purpose yards, a kickoff return touchdown, and 150 rushing yards versus Arizona State in the Las Vegas Bowl. Eat your heart out, Max Hall.
No. 3 - Shea McClellin, 2.5 sacks versus Georgia. Quite possibly one of the best defensive players Aaron Murray saw all season.
No. 2 - Kellen Moore, 455 yards and five touchdowns against Toledo.
No. 1 - Kellen Moore, 82 percent completions, 260 yards, and three touchdowns versus Georgia. And one extremely goofy postgame picture.

i'd say Martin's demolition of ASU #2
and knock down Moore’s performance vs toledo a few pegs.
not to say it isn’t a good performance or whatnot, but that is pretty standard far for him.
My QB has an AWARD named after him. How about yours?!

Doug Martin's Muscle Flexes off ASU
Doug Martin is not flagged for personal foul when Muscle Flexing ASU
The only thing the BCS has to fear is fear itself and Blue is the color of fear.

It saddens me that Billy Winn didn't have a standout year this year.
He is a great player.
i can only assume
teams started game planning for him.
he’s still an all-star and first round pick in my heart.
interesting that he got a sr bowl pick over potter and mcclellin.

Rec for "New Mexico exchange rate"
and some pretty good picks. I would go with Dougie vs Sun Devils as well #2. Their talent on defense was very high, but it did them no good whatsoever. In fact, had Doug trimmed the back of his shirt tail before the game (the part they grabbed in desperation twice), he would have scored 4 TD’s and had over 250 yds rushing.
On Bill Winn – he has a great chance to show what he can do in the Senior Bowl along with Kellen, Doug and George. That is a game I want to see.
- is perfect – when SI uses the term “shred” against a defense like Georgia, you know it was a good day. Nobody else did it to them all year.
I don’t care if your team made a BCS bowl, I actually feel sorry for you making that comment.

You know...
at first i was miffed at the Sugar Bowl. Now I have a reason for hoping VT gets worked over by Michigan.
and i hate Michigan.

Exactly my sentiments!
A well deserved rec for your keen insight, sir!
The battle for hierarchy is more intense the lower the class.
Go away
you are giving trolls a bad name…and seriously damaging whatever good will was generated by VT fans over here. Be quiet and root for your team. Methinks they will need it.
And another thing...
considering Virginia Tech’s ONLY kicker just got suspended indefinitely for breaking and entering, your silence would make even more sense.
Wow!
How insecure is a person when they have to troll a post like this to make themselves feel better? vt89, you really must know deep in your heart that virginia tech does not deserve their placement in the sugardaddy bowl. Since we are close to the beginning of a new year, the people of the one true football nation will forgive you this transgression. Go in peace.
We must be the change we wish to see in BRONCO NATION---Mahatma Ghandi (if he had the chance to be a Bronco fan)
it doesn't take a whole lot of gumption to admit that Virginia Tech does not deserve to be in the Sug at all.
I have freely admitted it before and will continue to do so.
we really have to quit
feeding the trolls… they are bad for the environment… too much methane

Honorable mention goes to...
Muscle Hamster Dancing — both Doug’s award-winning performance AND to the wonderful soul wearing the giant hamster suit up in the student section (rodent’s got skillz)

Ps...
What do you call it when a hamster does the “Running Man”?

PEW PEW PEW! Kellen Moore
Gavins in any of the three games he played
Deserves a mention too….
The Bulldogs had no answers, so they called timeout. And at that moment, every single person in the stadium knew that Georgia was in over its head. It was instant singularity of Boise State's greatness.
