  • We will have our hands full with Boise as Cookman showed us how weak we are at secondary. If an FCS team can pass against us like that I'm afraid that a Boise team that is so used to beat teams (and some of them good teams) with their passing you can just imagine what they will do to us. If, and that's a big if, UTEP can at least help the secondary with blitzes and rushes and not give Boise all day to pick their targets we might be able to keep the score low on us. But, I don't hold much hope as I still think Boise will be much better than the teams we've already played and cusa teams. So expect a loss. We don't really know how strong Boise is against the run and if we find out that they're weak there then UTEP can have a field day running it up their noses in every set. I hope that UTEP will turn out to be as strong with the run as Bossy is with the pass then it will get interesting.

    My pick:

    Bossy State      45

    UTEP                35

  • I think that if a person picks a 27 point underdog and they win it should involve a bonus. Jmho

  • 45-15 Boise wins and until we can show that we have something that resembles a defense against better opposition its just best to assume we suck at it.

  • Check them.  If I accidentally put your UTEP lose score as the winning score, send me a correction.

  • Hey, there's 12 of us posting our scores. I don't remember last year having so many posters. I wish we could get some of our old friends back.
