RE: even in a rebuilding year 11:17

Did you even watch the ball game?????

Maybe you stuck your Sugar Bowl rerun video in by mistake???

Admit it.......your defense won the ball game and your offense looked loosy.

TCU will make mincemeat out of your "best players in the conference"

TCU 53
Utah 10

GO BOISE STATE!!!!!!!!!

Thats funny, two utes get the honors and all of a sudden the Utes have the best players in the conference. They are not only ones to get the MWC players of the week.

Congrats to them anyways.

They have the best players in the conference because they got this award one week? There are many, many others who have gotten this more than just once.

Only 22 points against the second worst team in all of Div. I A college football? How sad. No player on Utah's team should have been honored over say TCU's.

This is just the post-Fiesta Bowl talent and depth we're seeing. The effects of the Sugar Bowl on recruiting have barely begun.

You mean that same TCU squad who finished 2nd in the MWC last year, and handed Boise a loss in the Poinsettia Bowl?

Boise State's BCS ranking will continue to plummet, while TCU's will jump after they likely beat Utah. TCU will represent the MWC again in the BCS, while Boise might get to play Utah or BYU in San Diego.

Defense definitely won the game, However offense came to life in the second half. Only two touchdowns, but four scoring drives overall. Utah is rebuilding this year, and I wouldn't say that they have the best athletes in the conference overall (That honor goes to TCU), but Utah has the best athletes at a couple positions and in a year after losing as much talent as they did, Utah has consistently made appropriate changes and found ways to win! Also, I don't know what loosy means, by the way. Maybe your Boise State education can explain that one to me. And if you think TCU is going to drop 53 on Utah, you've got another thing coming. It will be a much closer game than people think. TCU hasn't faced a defense of this caliber all year (except in practice). Like it or not, you NEED Utah to beat TCU if your pathetic donkey squad wants to go to a BCS game!

Re: Moose on the loose

Go away moose, we don't want you posting your lame comments here.

By the way, I root for BSU as well I just don't feel the need to diss the Utes while I'm doing it.

But I guess it's just easier to be negative. Isn't it.

Hey, potato zoob?

If TCU beats Utah, your donkey state is definitely out from BcS chase which you're trying to accomplish the whole year. That'd be awesome(?) to you, but not to me. Now I'm pretty happy with my rebuilding Utes this year, even though it couldn't be better if Utah beats TCU.

Re Moose,
Based on the name I am wondering if Moose is a BSu co-ed. Will BSu fans be running all this smack when you get beat down by the 2nd place MWC team again this year? Until BSu plays some real teams more than once a year, they will be a team going nowhere.
I admit it, our D won the game. Is that bad? You ever hear defense wins championships? I am not saying we will this year, but if we do based on D, we will take it.
Playing TCU will be tough but not because of their fans and their 3/4 empty stands.

Go Utes!!

Re: rvalens2... just to be clear... its easier to be negative when you have a simple mind... i.e. moosknuckle.

Moosie... sign of a physically/mentally strong team = solid defense.

To all of my Moose fans out there, thank you!

You are all just jealous of my Broncos and we are ranked in the BCS again.

Why are there so many negative comments about me? At lease none of you have mentioned my blue turf.

BYU will BEAT Wyom. although it will be a close game.
Utah will get hammered by TCU and all of their smack will stop.

TCU will win the MWC followed by BYU.
B.S. will win the WAC.

GO BOISE STATE!!!!!

BSU would lose to any of the top 3 mountain west teams. if the broncos played Oregon next week, you would get your butts handed to you. and you make a statement saying BSU will win the WAC. well duh....your playing a bunch of D-2 and D-3 teams...how hard is it. the Tulsa game went down to the wire as well as the game against UC-Davis,(whatever school that is) your riding a little too high on that bronco of yours

Sorry I'm late.

Remember all of the smack last year...Utah 13 UNM 10

Then the next week TCU 10 Utah 0 at half..Black Out
Final TCU 1 Utah 13. Everyone talked about how lucky we were.

The game is all about match ups. We match up better with TCU better than anyone else they'll play this year.

I really liked what I saw in the second half.
Wynn really pushed the offense. 19 points in a half with a freshman first time QB. Daddy Likey.

I liked Schramm on the sideline as well. This team just needs some emotion on offense. Wynn has the personality to do just that. I also like the fact that there won't be much film on him when he goes to TCU.

I think the best team in the country right now is Oregon. But the NC is about who's the best at the end of the season.

Donkey State, don't worry your not it.

Expect a big offensive show with NM this week. Nothing too fancy just effective. Look for the playbook to open for TCU. The defense will create opportunities. Offense...it'll be fun.
