Boise becomes only the 3rd team to come back down 25 to win this season. Didnt see first half, but hopped on Boise live when they scored 2 quick tds to bring it to within 4. But then I got to see why State was up 35-17 at the half in the first place. They did whatever they wanted on the ground, each play run up the middle and get 8 or 10, Boise run defense is horrible, as bad as UNLV and thats saying a lot at least in this game. Boise ran on them easily also and its hard to think they had more yards from my 2nd half viewing.

Anyway this bet looked lost, Rypien stares down receivers bad drives but fate changes, Boise got down 14 with a couple minutes left, they score with like maybe a minute left, get the onside and score again, overtime, score and as State is nearing for a td they fumble and Boise recovers. Talent has dropped off since Peterson left obviously, a couple good RB's but thats about it. Final 59-52.

I had Boise -6 1/2. I switched to watching a movie when they got down 35-10. I checked back later to see that they had regained some ground but figured they would need to go to OT to cover and would need to have the ball first in order to kick the extra point.

Guess what?



If I bet on CSU my TV would have been damaged.

Cheers bud, that was probably the most surprising finish and happiest ending to a college football bet Ive had all season.

Sounds like you follow Boise closely. Given what happened in yesterday's game - any thoughts on the side or total in their upcoming games: hosting AF and at Fresno? They are laying -17 or -17.5 vs AF.

No I dont follow them closely, it just so happened the two games I saw of them this year their defense and qb doesnt really impress me, the other game being against Virginia. I dont have a lean for that game as of now but something is wrong with Air Force, two weeks ago that got shut down by an Army defense that normally gives up 5 yards a carry. Air Force didnt even have 100 yards rushing, that probably hasnt happened in a very long time. Now if they want to make a bowl they have to win out and I never trust middling teams to do that especially on the road, not sure about this one.

Ah, yeah that is odd about AF.
