I did not get a chance to see this one being so busy so I can't even talk about it.
Missed a hell of a game. Along with senior NT Chase Appleby forcing a fumble for a safety to win the game!
Oh Wow! That's really exciting. Maybe one day I'll see some of it on video. If one of y'all recorded it you should put it on youtube. Historical kind of win.
I can't stand BSU.

And maybe my favorite part of the win? I don't think it was a fluke. This wasn't an off night by Boise standards. Rypien hit his passing yardage average for the season. McNichols eclipsed his rushing average. Sperbeck got his numbers. No missed kicks. And they got off their weekly trick play for a TD, too. We just flat out outplayed them. We made the big plays when we needed to. We got the big stops when we needed to. Our studs came through in the clutch when we needed them to. Man, this feels so good!
I think offensive line play is the biggest difference in this team. They flat out are steam rolling guys and giving great protection. It was great to see our second string guy step in and not miss a beat.
Tight end is a position we are improving drastically as well.
Really this is as complete of a game as I can remember the pokes playing against a ranked opponent.
I felt like I was in college after this win, staying on my 50 yd line in the student section, and after that awesome safety I yelled and the section "wanna go onto the field" the kids looked at me and said HOW, I said follow me and we got there, I felt like when we rushed the field when we beat the mighty SDSU and Marshall Faulk in 92, man oh man what a night!!!! NO let downs against a pesky USU squad, still buzzing

This! We didn't play a perfect game either. Came away empty on the 4th and goal, didn't score on every Boise turnover, while Boise did score on our lone interception and our turnover on downs (99 yard drive in like 5 plays!). None of our trick plays worked, we had some droughts in scoring, several 3 and outs, and we trailed for nearly the entire game. I think the only perfect aspect of the game was that we committed no penalties. Well that and our kicking game.
Although the game was decided on the safety, besides the end of halves we really didn't get much pressure on Rypien. I thought that was a recipe for a BSU blow out. We were able to limit their big plays to long gains instead of outright touchdowns generally.

Missed that one. Hopefully nothing serious and they're just being careful.
Guys I held true to my word and didn't watch the game. Truth be told, I had already made plans or I would have been in Laramie. What an epic game. Count me among those who never saw this success coming. It appears Bohl really is the real deal. Couldn't be more proud of the team!

Here you go, Alyssa!
Merci beaucoup.
I would have taken a while to find it otherwise.
