I don't like Boise but their coaching staff and QB is better than anything staff or QB in our conference. Give Boise a 17 million dollar TV deal and I would imagine they could bring in even better players.

Disagree completely. Look at Haskins record since he joined a real conference. Peterson is a good coach, but staff would be middle of the road in the SEC. QB is also above average, but Toledo defenders were playing 5 yards off the ball and playing zone all night. Did you see how average he looked when he had any semblance of pressure? 1 INT and 2 failed 4th down conversions. Also, Boise St has no kicking game. They missed 2 of 6 extra point conversions and wouldn't attempt a field goal because announcers said Peterson had "no confidence" in his field goal kickers.

Can you imagine going through a real conference every week without a reliable FG kicker?

I watched the game last night expecting them to dominate and was extremely disappointed. No running game, one dimensional passing game against a very soft zone, and Toledo turned the ball over twice in the red zone, not counting a dropped TD pass.

Oh....and playing on the road in front of a "hostile" 28K crowd.

Over on the boise scout board they're saying how great it was to go into a "great" teams stadium and win like that. Toledo was awful. Just because the boise defense can't stop the screen to save their life doesn't mean Toledo is a good team. Kellen Moore didn't play very good because he actually had pressure on him most of the game. They'll rip on any sec team besides bama, lsu, and uga (figures) saying they're just plain not good teams, but Toledo is. I'm sorry but you just because you want something to be true doesn't make it true.

I don't have to imagine it. Florida lived it last year. It cost us the Miss St game and the LSU game.
