I don’t feel nearly as badly as I thought I might.
No sleep last night, just over an hour. Nerves all day.
But I resigned myself to a loss and it’s why I laid the points. My reasoning was pretty simple.
- Boise is just better
- Games are won and lost at the lines. Boise is better at both.
- Jeanty is a deserved Heisman contender.
- Boise is a program, UNLV is building a program
But mostly, it came down to this and I know I’ve stated it as nauseam - Boise doesn’t make mistakes. UNLV does. I felt UNLV had to play pretty mistake free (we didn’t) and Boise had to make mistakes (they didn’t). But more than that, over the course of the season, UNLV has made mistakes. Boise hasn’t. Both teams played like themselves.
