During that time, Tech has wins over Mississippi State, Oklahoma State, North Texas, LA-Lafayette, Northern Illinois, and 4 FCS teams in Ruston or Shreveport. Let's hope the Dawgs can keep the streak alive against Navy and Southern Miss.

    The last one we lost to, SFA in 2000....ugh. We only beat MVSU, and the ULX twins that year.

    Offensive transitions are tough and we don't have a clear-cut leader for the most important position on the field. That said, I think coach Dykes has shown that he is capable of working with the talent he has. Our schedule sets us up for success next year. I think we could see 8 wins if we don't get hit by the injury bug on the defensive side of the ball.

    Defensive stability will help, that's for sure. We will mourn the departure of D'Anthony but we have leaders such as Tank and Cole.

    Neither...10-11 wins in the regular season.


    I know some writers have already said that Boise should be ranked #2 to start the season. I suspect they will actually start out somewhere in the 4-7 range. Just saying that if they did start at #2 and the #1 falls before we play them, they have a great chance of being #1 at that time.

    You really think they can stop VTech and Tyrod Taylor?

    Mon, Sep 06 Virginia Tech at Fed Ex Field 6:00 pm
    Sat, Sep 18 Wyoming at Laramie, WY TBA
    Sat, Sep 25 Oregon State Boise, ID (Bronco Stadium) TBA
    Sat, Oct 09 Toledo Boise, ID (Bronco Stadium) TBA

    this year Boise has a tough schedule as opposed to last season with one "signature win" (besides us of course) If they can win at Vtech and against oregon state at home, and they start off in the top 4-7, they could very well could climb thier way to the top by the time we face them!

    man, i just wish this was the year we get them at home. i hated to "waste" this year's home game with them on a season that ended up not meaning anything. its tough to get a W on the smurf turf but we always have a shot at the Joe!

    Now that I think about it, makes sense. It's a similar offense (VT) because of Taylor, and the ACC just seems more physical than the PAC 10.

    Right, although they did not fare well at Georgia a few years ago to open the season. I still like their chances though.

    Thats a game that the BCS guys love to refer to. They always fail to point out that Zabranski had a horrible game (4 interceptions and 2 fumbles) and was pulled before halftime. Not making excuses, but w/out the unusually horrible game by Zabranski, Boise makes it respectable at the least.

    As if they've never folded to another BCS team before. It was one game.

    Yeah, they would be very quick to point out that it was the Georgia D that forced all those turnovers because they were so much better, bigger, stronger, had much better athletes, and totally manhandled and dominated Boise...

    2006. Was that his last year? I was thinking 2005 was his last at Boise.
