Is Boise State a good football team?

Question

Overall(offense, defense, and special teams)

Answer 1

Yes, definitely a good team. They are consistent and know how to win. I predict a Fiesta Bowl victory over Oklahoma or Nebraska. I believe they have what it takes to win. Their ranking should be higher maybe a 7.

Answer 2

That was a really good team and fun to watch with a GREAT coach. I saw the Fiesta Bowl and was really impressed with them. That game is the #1 argument in favor of having a National Championship tournament in football! As far as a movie, I'd see it because I love football, but they won every game so I'm wondering what kind of adversity if any they really faced. I just watched Glory Road about the 1966 Texas Western NCAA basketball championship and THAT was a team that faced real adversity in their season. I'm looking forward to seeing how Boise State does in the next couple of years.

Answer 3

They have the #2 ranked offense in NCAA 1-A football, #17 ranked
defense, but I don't know about their special teams. They play in
the WAC. Their non-conference wins include Sacramento State,
Oregon State, Wyoming, and Utah. They have crushed their non-conference opponents, except for Wyoming. I think Boise State
is a good football team, because they beat the third best team in the
PAC-10 by 28 points. Oregon State has been inconsistent all year
though, beating USC, but losing to Washington State.

Answer 4

in my opinion... they seem underrated to many people simply because they play in the wac, and that has never been a powerhouse conference. going undefeated is a huge feat, no matter what conference you're in. it just makes your team look better if you're in the big ten, the sec, or even the pac ten or big twelve on a good year. no one has mentioned jared zabransky, who has had a pretty decent career, starting his sophomore year, and completing between 60%- 65% of his passes every year. the real deal though is IAN JOHNSON. he's only a sophomore and was a beast this year, having a 5 td game against the team that beat usc, and consecutive 4 td games on the road vs. conference teams.

i dunno about you, but i think the d is ok enough to subdue an opponent while the offense goes off and gets them ahead. their bowl game should be close dependent on who they play, however.

Answer 5

No, they have not played a ranked opponent all season. They might get lucky though because they will play the Big XII Champion in the Fiesta Bowl and this has been a down year for the Big XII. However, I still think they lose a close game to OU or Nebraska.

Answer 6

I Truley Believe they arent
they
go undeafeted but they never mentioned on college gameday
never on sportscenter
they have a good offense
defense struggled a little but can be there
o.k special teams
but if they wanna be good
Strength of Schedule
they dont choose who they play but the ncaa
will realize that they need harder teams so we will see in the next years to come....

Answer 7

HELL TO THE YEA MAN THERE # 8 IN THE BCS, THEY GOT IAN JOHNSON A HEISMEN CANDIDATE AND HES KIK ASz, THEIR DEFENSE GOT GOOD COVERAGE AND THE LB AND LINEMEN CAN STOP RUNS, their SPECIAL TEAMS ARE SO SPECIAL THATS WHY THERE CALLED SPECIAL AND MAN THEIR KIKER CAN KICK, THEY ARE TOTALLY GONNA KIK AZZ IN THE FIESTA BOWL

Answer 8

I think they are actually pretty good. Are they national championship caliber? No, but they do deserve their ranking if not higher. They remind me of Utah a few years back with Alex smith.

Answer 9

remember they beat oregon state 41 to 17 and oregon state beat USC this year! this is not to imply they could beat USC, but rather show it as a point of legitimacy!

Answer 10

yes they are, its very hard to go undefeated, most teams are beaten by the least expected (oregon state, cincinatti, etc.) going undefeated is an underappreciated thing, They'll lose the fiesta, but still do well.
