Do We Want Boise to Lose Tonight?

[sportsart]

I'd like to see them come in reeling from an 0-2 start. Unless we are better than we expected, then I want them 2-0 so when we beat them it looks better.

Tough call.

 

[Bonehead]

No - want them 2-0.
Keeps our National Championship hopes alive.

I personally root for every team we play in every game but ours. Always looks better to win against a 2-0 team vs. 0-2. No brainer in my opinion.

 

[amory]

Of course we want them at 2-0.

 

[BugsyCT]

An 0-2 start wouldn't necessarily mean they'd come in reeling, on the contrary it could make them all the more focused against us.

Just one reason of many why we want them at 2-0.

Why would Boise be 0-2 if they lose tonight? Colorado State counts as a loss automatically?

 

[whaler11]

Boise's QB picked up where he left off. Horrible turnovers.

 

[Dooley]

I'm rooting for Boise as hard as I ever have. I want them 2-0 when they come play us over breakfast (for them).

Nice helmets with chrome grills

NO, NO, NO....The only time I want to see an opponent lose is when we are playing them. No spitting match here but a very easy call.
Everything you may or may not get offered in the post season is predicated on strength of schedule, conference etc. Beating teams with losing records is given very little cred.
Again no spitting match but this going into our first game of the year is an energy sucking post. Let us kick both BYU and Stony Brooks and have Boise do the same with Ole Miss & Colorado St.
The atmosphere in The Dog House will be like that of the M game. Only losers hope to play losers...Which does nothing for the program. Just say'n...

Not true. Bowls are solely based on where you slot in your conference. Maybe there is leeway between the #3-4 bowls, but really it doesn't matter unless you are talking playoffs. Playoffs???

 

[ScottBonz]

Regardless, this game is horrid.

 

[Point6]

I would usually root for our future opponent. Here, my reservation is that this would be a decent win and we don't want Boise to be the highest ranked G5 team the end of the season. We need an AAC team to get that New Years Bowl slot every year.

 

[BoatShow]

We want all our opponents to go 11-1 on or journey to 12-0.

 

[Jimmy Serrano]

These Boise trick plays are TO's waiting to happen. Just got away with one.

 

[Vowelguy]

Also, must always root against P5 schools.

 

[Jimdish255]

If they weren't so horrible in the red zone Boise would be winning this snoozefest. What's Ole Miss rated?

 

[amory]

Ooh 1-time pole position winner Danica Patrick is at this game!

 

[whaler11]

We want all our opponents to go 11-1 on or journey to 12-0.

A bit mathmatically impossible but a nice sentiment....

This game was men vs. boys. Boise looked like a high school team against a middle of the pack SEC team.
