Did anybody know there was a bowl game tonight? Boise vs Washington. Don’t recall too many Dec 13 bowl games.
Noticed it last night. Actually two teams I know pretty well, too. One I think is underrated who definitely has some great players (QB, RB, WR - Boston's son). Actually both RBs are good. QB Williams Jr, though, is something else. Very quick and fast, out of the pocket, he's a big problem. And he can throw too. Really fun to watch. Washington is underrated and I expect them to roll. That is if they care and keep those guys in.
This is not your typical Boise State. That whole conference had a lot of talent take off for colleges not in flux and/or money. They literally aren't a conference after this game. Just look at their records. 4 were tied at the top (4-2) and that's because there was so much mediocrity. I mean, even New Mexico tied for first and THAT is saying something. Some math equation landed Boise State at home vs UNLV and it was a joke. At one point,
7 penalties on UNLV, none on Boise State. Typical. And UNLV still could've won.
Since it's somewhat of a regional game, there could be some pride. BSU will show up to beat Wash (and they just played a week ago. Washington OTOH had their last gasp with Oregon and that was two weeks ago so those guys may have mailed it in. It's also in LA so they may be finding other things than football around. I hope not because I'd like to see them roll Boise. One of the few bowl games I'll bet. Washington is for real -- top 20 team, easy. They could've won a few more games, at least one, if it wasn't for Fisch, their HC. If he just lets that kid (Williams, Jr) let er rip, they would've been better off. Instead, he leaned on that running game and tried to wear teams down. Like, almost proving their not a P-12 team or some ****.
Against the bigger names on their schedule, they played to just stay in the game. Dumb.
