With California going to the Red Box bowl (seriously?) vs. Illinois and ASU to the Sun Bowl that means Washington will be playing Boise State in the Las Vegas Bowl.
Since Boise State has to play AT Hawaii they COULD add a 13th game to the schedule - but to date they have not done so. So currently there are four non-conference games scheduled for the 2020 football season for Boise State. And THREE of those four games are HOME games for Boise State:
SEP 5...
Yes, you have made your HATRED of Chase Cord abundantly clear - despite the stats which show Cord is a better quarterback than Bach(he's getting SACKED AGAIN)meier. Frankly NO Boise State athlete deserves the negative comments you - and others - have showered on Cord this year. But hey if...
Whatever point you were trying to make here failed to hit the mark. As these "factors" you mentioned here have nothing - at all - to do with how voters in the MWC vote for as far as Coach of the Year.
Fact is Bryan Harsin has been the head coach at Boise State for six years now -2014, 2015...
They chose to honor Hawaii head football coach Nick Rolovich as the 2019 Mountain West Conference football coach of the year.
Yet Rolovich is 0-2 this year (alone) against Boise State's Bryan Harsin. In fact Rolovich's team has been outscored this year 90-47 in those two games in 2019...
I will go to my grave with the firm belief that IF Boise State had Jaylon Henderson as their starting QB for the entire season this 2019 Boise State would have gone undefeated and would be 13-0 right now rather than 12-1. And Boise State would also be headed to the Cotton Bowl - to likely play...
First there was the PAC 12 network (maybe not "first" overall) when the people in charge of the PAC 12 chose to make it nearly impossible for anyone outside of California, Oregon and Washington, to watch by refusing to deal with DirecTV or Dish Network, etc.
Now..........the PAC 12 championship...
So the TOTAL POSSIBLE returning scholarship players for 2020 is at 69. However that is almost certainly going to be 68 when Curtis Weaver announces his intention to enter the NFL draft later this year. IF that number stays at 68 that would mean Boise State would have 17 scholarships to give...
CORRECTION - I got the "started the first three games" in 2016 from his Bio on BroncoSports.com however after checking that out he actually started only the first game of the 2016 season against Louisiana Lafayette. He did play in two other games that season - Washington State and Oregon State...
I read a post on another Boise State forum which mentioned that RS Senior Safety Evan Tyler - whose career at Boise State has been filled with injuries - is likely to also apply for a 6th year of eligibility. His RS Freshman season (2016) he started the first three games of that season but...
Mountain West Conference Football Champions since 1999 have involved only 7 teams/schools. And three of those seven are no longer members of the Mtn. West Conference.
FOUR TIME CHAMPIONS
B. Y. U. - 1999 (3 way tie) – 2001 – 2006 – 2007
T. C. U. - 2005 – 2009 – 2010 – 2011
Utah – 1999 (3...
I came up with a total of 68 football players on scholarship at Boise State who are possible returners for the 2020 season. HOWEVER ................four of them MAY or MAY NOT be back for 2020. And one of the four is virtually guaranteed to not be back. Those four are:
1. STUD - Curtis...

2nd TEAM ALL MOUNTAIN WEST - OFFENSE
RB - George Holani - True Freshman (still listed 3rd on Boise State's depth chart)

What an odd thing to say about the # 1 tackler on the entire Boise State football team.
1. Riley Whimpey - 62 total tackles
2. Kekaula Kaniho - 57 total tackles
3. TIE - Benton Wickersham & Kekoa Nawahine - 51 total tackles
5. Jalen Walker - 50 total tackles
6. Curtis Weaver - 47 total...
This is based SOLELY on tackles to date this season. Returning Starters in BOLD

Demitri Washington - 2020 RS Sophomore - 30 Total Tackles in 12 games
Dylan Herberg (Walk-on) - 2020 RS Sophomore - 3 Total Tackles in 10 games
DEFENSIVE TACKLE
Jabari Watson - 2020 RS Senior - 6 Total Tackles...
I normally try NOT to criticize officials simply because I used to be one a long time ago. However, what I saw yesterday in the Boise State vs. Colorado State game merits mentioning. That being the fact that the Colorado offensive players - on nearly every single play - were very OBVIOUSLY...
And of course there was also the Statue of Liberty play that Boise State ran in the 2014 Fiesta Bowl win against Arizona - which most don't seem to recall.
However if you watch the STATUE play in last weekend's game vs. Utah State maybe you will notice what I did. That being that the BLOCKING was so very much better when Boise State ran that play against Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl in 2007. Primarily because then future NFL ALL-PRO Left Tackle...
The last week of the regular season in NCAA football is known - throughout the country - as "Rivalry week". BUT apparently those in control of the football game schedule in the Mountain West Conference just don't GET what the term "Rivalry Week" means. There are three games this week in the...
Bob Davie was interviewed last summer and he mentioned how the crime in Albuquerque, N.M., has affected the ability of the coaches there in ALL sports to recruit not only athletes but coaches to come play and or coach there. It's a VERY real problem and in this interview Davie barely scratched...
Since Emmanuel Fesili played in last Saturday's game at Utah State he has now played in FOUR games this season. IF he plays in any more games this season he will give up his chance to use this season as his redshirt season. He is currently a 4th year Senior and given the lack of returning...
