Look forward to seeing you guys up here next week. We just got done beating Rice 49-7, as we called off the dogs in the third (no pun intended).
Should be an high flying game I hope :P

I bet you are looking forward to seeing us. The way we're playing you guys may have to try hard not to score 70.
Lets see you beat Rice 49-7 we lost to Rice 37-20 so that makes you favored by 59! Don't laugh Tech fans they beat Fresno by
46.
I'm still trying to figure out why Boise State laid down and played lap dog to Arkansas. The WAC conference really needed a win in that game to earn a little respect.

Please, be gentle NB.
Congrats on your Top 25 ranking. I think your deserving of it.
Your ranking looks to be in no real danger this week. It is going to be lots of fun to see that score going across the bottom of every TV screen in America.
HogDawg, I don't think they played lap dog to Arkansas. I understand that when Dinwiddie went down in the first qtr. that the 2nd QB came in cold and with absolutely no reps with the first team consequently he was throwing behind and in front of receivers most of the day as well as mishandling snaps. He obviously got his timing down the next week and the Broncos have not missed a step since. Besides, we know what it's like to play in Arkansas. The Broncos seem to get stronger and more confident every week, they are beginning to gel into one the best teams in the country...no doubt one of the best teams the WAC has seen in several years. My observations have been: #1 I believe our athletes are as capable as theirs, #2 I believe their coaching staff is the best in the WAC. You know as well as anyone that this game is as much mental as it is X's & O's and right now Boise St. believes they can beat Miami...and I for one am beginning to share in their confidence. Unfortunately, we don't have the mental game that it will take to hang with the Broncos. I believe our guys are mentally defeated knowing that we are strickly playing to complete a season. I want us take down Boise St. as much as anyone on this board and I believe we have the athletes to do it, but I don't think we will be mentally prepared to do it. Let's face it, our offense has scored enough points to win games and our defense has some quality players...I just don't think they are being properly prepared to win these games...I don't think they have been given the chance to win most of them. Sorry HD, I started rambling...Let's play golf soon, I won't be in Boise but I'll try to find you in Shreveport.Originally Posted by HogDawg
We are notorious for starting slow, which usually hurts us against nonconference BCS teams, especially on the road. For the Ark game we were using 4th string kickers which is why Dinwiddie tryed to punt at the beginning (bad move/never again). Our O-line although senior was filling gaps with new players not used to starting as Matt Hill is now playing alot for the Seahawks and he was a huge whole to fill. The muffed punt at the beginning put the crowd into it, and put our kids in a "Oh sh*t" mode. Ryan went down. I don't know if we would beat them now if we played again in Ark. next week, but in Boise I'd definitely like our chances.
Have a safe trip up this week. :twisted:
I thought Dinwiddie went down midway through the 2nd Qtr, after Arkansas already had a big lead?

Oh gawd, that's right. All weekend ESPN will flash the Top 25 scores, and even worse! it's a day game. so it's not like the east coast will be asleep when "Boazy 70 Tech 13 " hits millions of TV's across the nation. eegad!
I have my tix for the McNeese-NSU game, which kicks off about the same time as the Boazy game. I won't even be listening to that, although I'm certain that NSU will joyfully announce the score for me. another eegad!
Went down late in the first and left in the second after he realized he was hobbling around on a broken foot. We were down at that point true. But not so much you couldn't come back. Last time we played there we were down 21-0 at the half and missed tiening the game on the last play falling short on the 1 yard line. Not saying we would have won, but it wouldnt have been the blowout it was.
I'm still disappointed in that game as well. But it started off poorly, and just went down hill. We've been trying to improve of SOS, but that takes a little time. However, we've added Oregon State and BYU which should help.
I think Arkansas remembered the last time ya'll came into Little Rock about 3 years ago. Arkansas jumped out to a big lead and you guys came back and were within a half yard of tying the game on the last play. I'm sure Houston remembered that as well as some of the older players and they didn't let up on you guys. Ya'll had a QB seems like his first name was Bart but I can't remember his last name that was pretty good. Anyway, I'd like to see a Boise St. - Arkansas matchup now and I think the outcome would be alot different.
WE too would like another shot, especially in Bronco Stadium.
Bart Hendricks, I think.
