Boise State vs UNLV

Postby Spence » Sat Nov 05, 2011 11:57 pm

On now. Boise State just punched it in before the half to make it 21-14. UNLV is playing like they are in the Super Bowl. Very aggressive. Kellen Moore will take this game over in the second half, but so far it is a very good game.

I noticed the same thing. UNLV has nothing else to play for this season so you can tell they are pumped up. That kind of level of play is unsustainable though so I expect them to crash fast and hard in the second half.

They will in the second half. Playing with a target on your back every week is tough. UNLV is taking every chance, So far it has worked OK, but mistakes usually follow a team taking chances like they have.

Two weeks in a row where the defense was not as invincible as I once thought. Good win and good for them.

Who was it that played San Jose State? I forget...

btw.. I might be wrong but I suspect another conference is actually courting BSU secretly and more effectively. Just some whispers I heard from a few people in the know from Boise. An announcement might be made that the enitre media world is expecting Big East and BSU when in reality it will be someone else and BSU -- another well-known AQ conference and NOT Pac 12.

Don't you just love rumors?
Win or Lose - IT'S HOW YOU HYPE THE OUTCOME! BCS logic: When teams in the AQ conferences lose, it shows how tough those conferences are; when teams in non-AQ conferences lose, it is weakness.

The Big 12 would make so much more sense...

The Big East is not a geographic.

With losing Nebraska, Colorado, and Missouri, it seems like the Big 12 is becoming something more of a Southern conference. From what I've heard they were interested in adding Tulane, Cincinnati, and Louisville.

And..the ACC is becoming a northeast conference...

With Pitt, Syracuse, Boston College...and with maybe adding UConn and Rutgers...the footprint is more mid and northesatren than south.
