I love the Boise State Broncos. They had a great game today against long time rival (though they haven’t beat Boise State in over a decade) the Idaho Vandals. Some of my favorite things about Boise State are their trick plays, and here are some they used in the game today:
BOISE STATE BRONCOS TRICK PLAYS
* The running back threw for a touchdown.
* They made it look like they were going to punt, but the kicker threw for a first down.
* They made it look like they were going to go for it on a 4th down, but then the quarterback kicked a field goal.
* They punted on 1st down (no one saw that one coming).
* They put the quarterback in on defense, and then he stripped the ball from the Vandals quarterback and threw for a touchdown.
* The kicker did a lateral throw to another kicker who handed off to a running back who threw for a touchdown.
* They brought the kicker in on defense, and he kicked the ball out of the hands of the Vandals quarterback for a field goal.
* One of the Broncos cheerleaders went onto the field and then threw for a touchdown.
The final score was 132 to 5.
ROTFLMAO! 😉
There’s a state in Boise? What?
Yes but who won?
How about a triple option with the center at the tailback spot?
Is that a bad thing? That’s what I call football, boy.
Fred Thompson, Doc Mayhem.
How about ““wrong ball”“, Frank? I assume the Broncos will pull that out against a “big boy” team in their BCS bowl game.
They brought the kicker in on defense, and he kicked the ball out of the hands of the Vandals quarterback for a field goal
Seriously? He kicked the frickin’ ball OUT of the opposing team’s quarterback’s hands?
Y’know, I’d almost think about watching football again, if stuff like that happened sometimes. Actually, is there an online video of THIS game available somewhere?
…kicked the effin’ football out of the OTHER q’back’s hands …for a field goal. Heh.
I thought that if one team scored more than another team, they should apologize, and the coach should be fired.
It will really be fun to see what trick plays they come up with in the San Diego Credit Union Poinsseta Bowl.
We’ve seen the cheerleaders… They had to install fake grass in the stadium to keep the cheerleaders from grazing!
So when does the loser coach start bowing before the winner coach? Works for our POTUS…being a loser and all…
Respect the Smuf Turf. FYI If you are ever in Boise and want to see the BSU Cheerleaders at their day job, eat a Busters on Broadway. It’s like Hooters but with hot BSU Cheerleaders and much better food. (The Blue Cheese Bacon Burger is outstanding).
I never watch the U of I games. for the same reason I never watched “Faces of Death”.
And even though we won, I bet we will fall in the ranks again.
Most excellent. This is why we love rivalry games, BigRichard. 😉
They had 15 players on the field on every play,
disguised by wearing blue uniforms on that
retina-melting-cyan turf.
Frank, I admire your optical stamina.
I love the Nebraska Cornhuskers,
but if they ever install scarlet colored field turf,
I would only ever watch them on the radio.
After reading the above summery of trick play’s, I find I must ask… Are you sure you haven’t got Boise State confused with TCU?
There must have been a time when the people of Boise said, “Hey, man, we’re big and important like a State school, you know?” So they named themselves “Boise State.” Thereafter, people in Montana and Washington were confused.
Is it true they use giant potatoes as footballs there?
I went to watch the game on the TV. Took forever to get the color right. And by the time I had the field looking like the nice, lush green like it must be, they players were purple.
Why does Boise State have purple players?
The players have been holding their breath since 2007 when the last time they got a BCS Bowl. That may account for their color.
BSU BSU BSU
So, now that my beloved Hawkeyes have suffered defeat at the hands of the hated and, might I add, very “gay” Bukeyes it shall be our pleasure to meet the Boise State team at your place and choosing to settle this matter. Since we shall not be in the national championship game but will no doubt be playing in a major bowl game, we may have to send over our scout team but we are certain that your little boys in blue will give us quite a tussle…
Yeah, USSJC, what the heck was up with Iowa not even trying to win the game in regulation? Now those eternally-cursed ****eyes are going to represent the Big Ten in the BCS even if Michigan pulls out a miracle and beats them this week.
So we’re looking at:
ACC – Georgia Tech
Big East – Cincinnati
Big 12 – Texas
Big Ten – OSU (#$*@ them in their stupid *%#*ing @#*&*s, the dirty *&^$ing @#%&*^ers)
PAC-10 – probably Oregon
SEC – Florida/Alabama
Which leave 4 at large berths: TCU gets in automatically, loser of Alabama/Florida is probably in, which leaves 2 at large berths for Boise St/LSU/Oklahoma St/Penn St/Iowa/Pitt. If Cincinnat wins out, Pitt is out of it. So I’m pulling for Boise and Cincinnati to win out, LSU and Ok St to lose, and even a TCU loss would make me happy.
And I really want to see Boise play anybody but the Big Ten, cause I don’t want to have to root against the Big Ten.
Oh and speaking of football, how bout that Colts/Pats game last night? Frigging amazing game. How awesome is Peyton Manning that Belichick decides to go for it on 4th and 2 from his own 28?
And not only is Peyton an awesome quarterback, but both he and his wife donated the maximum ammount to Fred! when he was running for President. I think that makes it obvious that Peyton is the real patriot, and Brady is just a pretty boy.
Boise State is in. I really think Penn State gets that last bid, what with USC losing (losers! lost to a Tree)
