Wyo @ Boise State

Recommended Posts

Looking forward to a good game....and think it might be better than many of my fellow Poke fans.   Or, it might not be.    I think the Poke's D will be up for the challenge.   But we can't rely on them to continue to score points.  The offense will need to contribute for the Pokes to have a chance.   

I see a game similar to last year but with less offense on both sides.

After watching the Wazzu game our game plan should be "pass for 15 yards just every play. Every goddamn play"

We'll need to borrow some of Wazzu's receivers to pull that off.

It looks like the weather isn't going to be great for this one, about 45°, 10 mph winds, and a half inch of rain expected in Boise on Saturday.

Attendance may not be too affected though - 34k tickets reportedly already sold (3000 short of capacity).  If they all show up it will be the highest attendance so far this season at BSU.

I'm bringing fifteen for the cause...

This game might be like the 2011 game in Boise where Pokes defense did a pretty good job on Kellen Moore for most of the game, that was the game Boise scored at the end of the first half on the freak touchdown bomb to Matt Miller who was laying down in the end zone!  

But unless Pokes can effectively run the ball, I don't see how Allen is going to have much chance to do anything.

Looking at Wyoming they are a lot like they were last year. Offenively and defensively, they look mightily different than they did last year, but the way they win is the same. Last year Wyoming was the only team in the SEC Mountain to get outgained by their opponents, but they represented the division anyway. This year is the same thing. They are 3rd to last in the conference in that category this year and the only two that are worse (UNR and SJSU) are a combined 2-13 with a 1-1 record against FCS teams. But here they are sitting at 4-2. They score on defense, special teams, and make timely plays offensievely. That will be how they have to do it in Boise. They almost certainly won't outgain the Broncos, but Boise's offense is far from a juggernaut and this could be an ugly game that the Pokes could win in a tight one.

For Boise, Wyoming is pretty good defensively this year, but nothing better than Boise has seen all year. They are acutally right in the middle of most defensively categories when compared to the teams Boise has faced so far. Wyoming will have one of the worst rush defenses Boise has seen, but that is a little misleading as they give up 3.7 yards per attempt which is a pretty good number... but they somehow give up 175 ypg. The thing that Wyoming is good at, Boise struggled with early, but seems to be doing better. Wyoming gets in the backfield and is one of the best in the country in TFL. Boise gave up 12 sacks and 34 TFL in the first four games of the season, but hasn't given up any sacks and only four total TFL in the last two games. They have also had their best two rushing games in the last two games also. The terrible OL seems to be coming together... or maybe they just had a couple good games.

It looks like a game that Boise could run away with, but Wyoming tends to hang around in these games. Also, Boise is 0-11-1 in their last 12 homes games against the spread. That's ridiculous.

How apropos.

You ever seen a qb go from a high first round pick to not drafted so quickly as Allen?  Bsu's D will dominate. 31-3 Bsu. 

Sounds good.  Line is 14.

 Are you just talking out your ass again?  Last time you pulled a hit and run.   Remember the pick 10.  Notice our rankings and where you stand  

 I'm guessing your just playing around again.  Right?

Winner is in the drivers seat for the division.  Big game either way you cut it.  I take the points all day long.  Close game and it will come down to turn overs.  Let's see which QB brings it.  

How do you figure?
