Thanks for not being a jerk. Right after I said it, I remembered PSU’s Fiesta Bowl record. Whoops! Also, we are a bunch of homers.

You actually nailed it. Appreciate you listening, and yes, we are a bunch of homers. Us three have been friends since grade school, born and raised in Boise. We all have “real” jobs. Started doing this last year just for fun. We’re excited to play Penn State this week!

I will say we do try to be objective. I don’t think any of us predicted we’d beat Oregon, and I know one or two of us predicted a loss at UNLV. I certainly wouldn’t put money on Boise winning, but I think it will be a good game, and I think we can win. We will need to play our best game, and likely need PSU to not play theirs. Win turnovers etc. we’re excited for the challenge

Red head? Maybe we need better cameras. Glad that you watched though. Pain is weakness leaving the body. So Ive heard.

No but we watch KZbin clips a lot. So, figure that counts

News flash… ANYONE is a powerhouse when they run on all cylinders.

@@Idaho27 No, they're not. I'm talking Elite Powerhouse-- Ohio State, Oregon, Texas, Georgia Class.

Our pass defense is bad. Could easily be the reason we lose.

gonna so fun to come back and read posts like this after penn loses

​@@bretscherer4926Penn Quakers?

@@RSeakerPenn lost to Princeton for the final game of the year in the Ivy League.

Interesting. There goes any traction on the insider knowledge argument.

I don’t think we’ll be shocked. I think PSU is very good, and clearly are the favorite. I do think we’ll put up a good fight and have a chance to win this game. We have to play very well to win this game, no doubt

@MarkMoss-ql3wx my comment was geared towards the fact that these guys make it look like PSU has nothing. Didn't even mention Abdul Carter

I’m not sure anyone said that. Noones doubting the Big 10 is deeper than the MW. Hell, they get what, $50 million TV revenue compared to $3 million. But let’s not pretend it’s murderer’s row either. This shouldn’t even be a game. Your head coach makes more than our entire staff combined. But it will be a game and we’ll see who wins.

Big part of my childhood. 😂😂 Who would you like to see on the wall?

@@matt_lamm Sinbad singing about deserving McDonalds is one of my favorite movie moments.

You care too much. We’ll see

Bsu wins by 3 home runs. Maybe a free throw as well.

Has no clue what round in the playoffs is in, no idea where SMU campus is, TX somewhere. He bought that sweatshirt on his way tot the broadcast at the student bookstore.

@@markbost5372 They have good rates on clothing.

Comment of the week potential for this one 😂

My score prediction doesn’t really reflect the comment but I couldn’t resist. Sorry Brandon

Only one of us said that, and I agree, not sure I agree (as I said). I will say if SMU scores on that first drive, and their QB doesn’t completely crap himself, it’s a closer game. But I agree, PSU wins that game 8 or 9 times out of ten. They were the better team.

Could be. I don’t think we’ve ever played against a big 10 team or anyone with a 5 star player 🤷‍♂️ Cough ***oregon *** cough

so boise has slow, small players? do your research before you embarrass yourself…too late

True, I also think the crowd played a factor. Not going to be like that in the fiesta bowl though

Math must not be your thing. One back had 120something and the team had 300. Long way from 200 each.

Good input. Would also add that I’m not sure Boise State’s team is over confident. I do think they will give PSU a much better game than SMU did. We’re homer fans, but yeah, I give us a shot to win. I will say this, no one in Boise is selling travel packages to the Orange bowl yet the way they are over in Pennsylvania. So there’s at least SOME overconfidence there. I get it tho, we’re just a little MW school in Idaho with a blue field. Hard to not be confident if you’re a team like Penn State. Looking forward to a great game.

​@@MarkMoss-ql3wx I don't think the BSU team is overconfident. It sounds like both coaches and players are realistic. It's just that as a PSU fan when it's Ohio State or Oregon week, we approach it like it's a mountain to climb. The entire discussion is around, "What has to happen for PSU to win the game?" Even when we say, "We think OSU has a hole in their Oline that can be exploited," we still hedge on our confidence. There's a difference between saying, "I'm confident in my team and think we can win" versus "The other team isn't as good as advertised and we can beat them." That's where I'm saying objectively speaking, the paths for BSU to win are significantly fewer than PSU. The problem with the Oregon game is that PSU has that film and has been studying it for weeks so transitive property may not work.

I definitely think the game will be closer than PSU/SMU. At times PSU can struggle against the run. But they'll give up 85 total points in the second half all season. They figure things out. Plus they have their own running game that causes problems. Personal i think Singleton is the best back in this game. He averages 6.4 a carry. Does it against far better competition. But he shares the load so his numbers arent eye popping. And Allar has shown he can sling it. Penn State can be just as dangerous on offense as Oregon or Ohio State. They just aren't Consistent. And let's not forget. Oregon put up 37 on BS in week 2. Close game first half. PSU blows them out in the second. Going to be like 45-20.

@@Pcbdude82 I think the first half will be closer than SMU because PSU is a team that prefers to crockpot than microwave opponents. They'll literally spend the entire first quarter feeling out the opponent on both sides of the ball, then ramp it under in the 2nd quarter, adjust at halftime, and play elite in the 3rd quarter. PSU will default to whatever style they think is best for the game which is why we saw the passing explosion against USC and Oregon. The thing that's not being discussed enough is that in the Oregon game, Madsen was 17/40 for 148 yards, 1 TD, and 7 yards rushing. PSU struggles with mobile QBs who can throw on the run. And Oregon had 3 fumbles and lost 2. BSU was +2 on the turnover battle, Jeanty ran for 3 TDs on 200 all-purpose yards, but the QB passed for 43% completion with a 3.7 average. So the lesson learned from the Oregon game to me isn't that BSU can hang with PSU. It's that PSU can't turn the ball over twice, hold Jeanty to 125 yards and two rushing TDs, and make Madsen win the game.

If you aren’t selling travel packages for a possible game that is not far off, you better hope there are reservations available if you win.

I can see being Ohio State and Michigan’s lil bro for so long makes a fanbase salty

@@itskeaton7249Michigan only branched away from PSU during the cheating years. Other than that they’ve largely been worse than PSU. Obviously ignoring years crippled by sanctions

💯 unbiased 😂

I guess we’re all entitled to our homer pick. Boise by 50, trust me

I agree, Brandon may have been drunk with that take

Good input. Appreciate it! Hope it’s a great game.

Lol what are you even talking about? Yeah Indiana non conference is crap. Even their big ten schedule is not great. But let's be real. UCLA, Nebraska, Washington, Michigan State, Michigan. All have a chance to win the Mountain West. At a min they'd be top of the conference. Comparing any power 4 school to a G5 schedule is laughable.

Sure they can but that’s not going to be their specialty is the point

So can we!

WE ARE, enough said 38-13!!!! My Nittany Lions are very talented and deep and dangerous team, and can win multiple ways 👏!!!!!!!!!

The clowns I usually watch on KZbin are actual clowns. Scary clowns, circus clowns and old lady clowns. I get lost for hours watching them. Any good Family Matters episodes with clowns?
