Excellent photo gallery of last night’s football game
A game that Boise State won, if you hadn’t heard.

Boise State Defense comes up big
Only one of the first six drives to make it into Bronco territory resulted in points. Passing yards allowed aside, the defense sealed this game for Boise State.
"I thought the defense was awesome tonight...I thought our guys played extremely hard" - Coach Harsin

Harsin: "we did not face adversity in our first game ... we got a chance to do that tonight."

...and still won anyway.
Coach Leach with some interesting thoughts postgame
And by ‘interesting’, I mean ‘bitter’ and ‘delusional’

“We beat Boise State in virtually every category. Every category...except ‘toughness’”
Actually, the Cougars got beat in the only category that actually matters: The score. WSU also got worked over in the ‘Classiness of postgame comments by a head coach’ category.
And of course you lost in toughness, Leach—our second mascot is a sledgehammer! You’re not gonna out-hammmer the Bludgeoning Broncos of the Blue!
Mike Leach on his defense: "I still think they were intimidated by Boise State, which there’s no excuse for that."

Yes there is. Again, ‘sledgehammer’.
Miscellinkious
Seemed appropriate, considering what today is.
