Revisiting our last game against Boise State
This was fun to watch again (especially since BC held on to win). Lots of familiar names. The most impressive thing in retrospect was the offensive line play. Truly controlled the whole game.
BC tried everything to blow that huge lead. TOB absolutely turtled that second half. Seems like that’s been a common thread at BC for the past oh 3 decades at least.
Boise Staye is a high powered scoring machine. Dazoshit's slow, plodding, predictable offense will be no match. Why oh why is this clown still our coach?
All I remembered about this game is that we won and broke Boise's home win streak. So as I started watching, I was really nostalgic for TOB - such a good team and we had a bowl win streak going and we looked great for the first bulk of the game (and in typical BC fashion, we apparently also had kicker problems that year, which is why we went for it on 4th &4 and scored the first TD). Then Boise came back from 4 TDs down and could have won it in the last minute and the frustrations with TOB (and Spaz' bend-don't-break D) all came rushing back.
The Army coach has turned a woeful program around. Maybe he would like to rescue us from the FLOPPO=DAZZO=SHIT MESS. Tom O'Brien did win a lot of games (especially Holy wars) and recruited good players. He also won a lot of Bowl Games another something DAZZO=SHIT can't do. KEEP BESIEGING MARVIN GET US A FOOTBALL COACH WHO CAN WIN !!!!!!!!!!!
BC basketball cancelled its game today against A&M due to “weather and travel issues.” Pretty weak sauce. Seems like A&M is pretty pissed and rightfully so.
Looks like there’s differing stories coming from each school. Can also blame the pilot who refused to land...even though the airport was open and other planes were coming in.
Isn’t this the bowl game where BC was served cold food at the pregame ceremony, got pissed as a result and blew the doors off the Boise in the first half.

ReplyDeleteI just have one thing to say - GO ARMY.BEAT NAVY!
ReplyDeleteGo NAVY Beat Army
ReplyDeleteNot going to happen navy 89. Army is ranked 22 and would probably beat a Dazoshit coached BC.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately true on both accounts

Very true. TOB didn’t just qualify for bowl games he won them.

ReplyDelete“The Eagles said they offered to play later Saturday night or any time on Sunday but the Aggies declined.”

ReplyDeletePeople die because of pilot error. Give me this pilot any day if need a guy who is cautious and careful.
ReplyDeletePeople forget how good that Boise team was-following year they beat Oklahoma in a NewYears day bowl
