HiLife All-American

They were mediocre within their own conference, and got absolutely hammered at home by BYU last year. Maybe the new coaching staff can light a fire, but I doubt that it will be a substantial improvement YOY.

interesting... BYU vs (anyone) is not in the top 15 non-conference games for this year... yet Boise St gets listed

Just win. Everything will take care of itself, if they win.

Something tells me that Boise has peaked

They aren't getting the players they need to restock at the levels they were playing at. Maybe guys like Sears who go

That might be true if any one of them actually jumped at the first opportunity.

I didn't say first opportunity--I said first "good" opportunity. Reading fail.

None of them left for the first good opportunity. They got good offers regularly

Isn't that almost exactly why Mendenhall said he left BYU?

Yes, they peaked 10 years ago.

Even if that's true, that's still better than peaking almost 40 years ago.

Yep. BYU won a NC in the 80s. That is the pinnacle. (I like and root for BSU)

If you think you can draw any conclusions from the game last year, you're crazy.

oh wah wah wah, don't think so, football is football, and missing personnel is part of it, covid or not. That's like us

I also need to add, I think it's funny that you equate losing one player to not

I never said last year would predict this year. But as I note below, you trying to use the reverse argument in absence

LOL yourself. You just see what you hope is happening. As I once said.

I actually think they will be better this than last, I don't know if Shakir is back, but the line should improve, and

I didn't say "injury made us lose". I said you can't draw any conclusions from

I think the same is true in the reverse. You can't assume that because you lost without Bach or Sears, and your RB that

"that defense" (your words) is no more. New coaches, new schemes.

Didn't BYU players have to deal with the same COVID?

Personally, I hope BSU becomes a blue-grass dumpster fire and remains relegated

I don't. It's good for BYU for Boise to be a good program

Why do we have such vitriol towards Boise St? I genuinely don't get it.

here's to hoping
