NCAA Football: Utah State at Boise State Brian Losness-USA TODAY Sports

About that time again...in like 10 hours and 15 minutes

But who’s counting?

McNichols out to ‘prove something’

Absent his services vs Utah State last year, Boise State has a bigger, better McNichols in the backfield this time around

NOTE: The Statesman paywall doesn’t stay up all the time. Seems like it may have reset again for the month. Go get you some of that Katz cat’s writing skills.

Revenge is never a dull theme

And, if I’m being honest, I’m looking forward to some today.

Key position-group matchup in today’s game

The d-line has been an extremely pleasant surprise so far this season. They’ll get a great test vs an extremely experienced Utah State line.

Players to watch and keys to the game

An excellent breakdown by The Beej.

Caldwell wants more from D-line

A likewise excellent piece by the same.

Looking ahead

If you missed the BYU/Toledo game last night, it actually was legitimately exciting—and not just because Mack Brown, the color commentator, left halfway through the 2nd half. I was actually ‘rooting’ (for strength of schedule purposes only!) for BYU, however, I don’t know that I’ve ever seen less defense in a game since the 2011 Alamo Bowl. The takeaway: BYU’s defense looks like a great candidate for a few of our offensive players to break some single-game records.

Can’t wait!

Twitter Tidbits

9,000 pounds of equipment. Dang!

Whitney: “Say something in Spanish.”

Perez: “I don’t speak Spanish”

Whitney: “Yes you do!”

Hahaha!

PFF can be real hit or miss, but they nailed this.

3-0 starts are going around on the BSU campus this athletic season.

Sweeps of SDSU: Always a net positive.

Miscellinkious

...and to think I get irritated when someone spells my name ‘Micheal’.
