Chris Jordan Wednesday's winner ... Lost last night a 100...
50♦ BOISE STATE - These weekday decisions sure do become irritating, but we gotta do it, and we have to keep playing and never break the chain. That's how we become successful. Tonight the better choice is undoubtedly with the Broncos.
This might be the most important game to Boise State, and I expect it to show up with destruction on the brain.
The Broncos, who are 5-0 SU and 4-0 ATS, have dominated most of their opponents. They opened the season with an impressive 19-8 win over Oregon on national television and then shut out Miami-Ohio, 48-0. Then they followed up with road wins over Fresno State (51-34) and Bowling Green (49-14).
But two Saturdays ago, the Broncos hosted Cal Davis. And the final - 34-16 - just doesn't seem right. It's almost as if, Boise was, dare I say it - lazy?!?!?! This is a team that is not only vying for a BCS Bowl Berth, but thinks it should be in the National Championship by finishing in the Top 2.
Well, if the Broncos are to pull off such a feat, they're going to need a blowout win over their last non-conference foe of the season. That would be tonight. That would be against Tulsa.
Boise State's remaining seven opponents come in looking like this: one winning team, one team with a .500 record and five teams with a losing record. Collectively, how's a 16-21 record work for you?
You can see why this game is important.
The fifth-best scoring offense in the nation is going to be on display tonight, and this won't be the first time you've heard this, nor the last, but the Broncos are also a defensive stalwart this season, ranking 14th overall and 13th against the scoreboard.
This is going to be a well-balanced effort from the Broncos, who should win this by a minimum of two touchdowns.
i like it --i like the fact they played "lazy" at home last game against a lower level team. that means the coaches were on their ass to remind them of what is at stake if they don't play hard every game. they will roll tonight
Chris Jordan 10/14
