...vs. Boise.

Senior week it is. Another late start on national television. How much bonus $$$ has Wyoming racked in already?

If you ever need to laugh, just remember there was some idiot who wanted Bohl fired after 2 seasons.

Boise State hasn't looked great the last two weeks. They've really struggled against the run. I can see Hill having a big night. Is it true Wick might be back for Saturday night?

Not enough to make it a better team, apparently. If you're going to lose 8 games a season, I would rather see it done at noon Saturday with old uniforms on a somewhat worn field with an unkept parking lot and no enclosed VIP section.

Why?
People think we will win or just cover?

Cold weather, bye week, Wick being back, Boise's poor D?
Combo of all of that?

Wick didn't even appear on the depth chart this week. Sampson won't play, Puletasi may not either. Defensive depth is hanging by a thread. Broncos could have a big day on offense. They're averaging 48.2 PPG over the last 5 games, 55.5 PPG on the road in that span. Good thing it looks like it'll be windy Saturday night.

But hithere is correct, all the money this week is on Wyoming to cover.

Probably a combo of the public money and also wiseguys trying to get below 14.

But I'm not an Oregon fan who has lived in Las Vegas so I can't say with certainty.

I'd take that. Boise is an awful 1st half team.

jrod, I respect your opinion but have we shown we can score on even the worst defenses? We need a Fresno type matador defense to have any success. Doesn't Boise really need this game? I've seen us get rolled way to many times at night at home in front of almost no fans to think we have any chance at all to keep this close. Is that even a sentence? Well, I'm going the other way. The War will be virtually empty for the 2nd half.

I got Wyo +7 1st half and Boise -12.5 for the game.

I think the only way the pokes win is the donks have to have 4 turn overs.

I just can't see us keeping this game close. They will run and trick play the crap out of us. We will be burned on two trick plays. one for a score
