Idaho 33-6 Nevada (Sep 9, 2023) Box Score - ESPN
Box score for the Idaho Vandals vs. Nevada Wolf Pack NCAAF game from September 9, 2023 on ESPN. Includes all passing, rushing and receiving stats.www.espn.com
Neither brings anything of value to MWC so it's a no... Idahos stadium, the Kibbie Dome is incredibly small and their program is historically awful. They have almost 0 media market and WSU being 10 miles away is a much better choice... EWU is in the same boat, limited market, small stadium, no media market...
BSU couldn't get out of its own way last night. I dont think Green is the answer at QB. Madsen looked competent though.
I didn't watch the AF game but was following all MWC scoring. AF had 3 points going into the 4th quarter. That doesn't sound like AF. But they did lose their QB Daniels and that great FB Roberts. They did end up scoring 10 points in the 4th to get the win over Sam Houston. Maybe this is our year to get a win over those guys.
Fresno won in OT vs EWU who got smoked by 25 to NDSU in it's opener last week. NDSU not even as strong as they have been. Ndsu to mwc in football makes a bit of sense, but they too have a small 19,000 seat dome and small media market.
There was a time the WAC didn't even want us. If the powers that be bring NDSU because they see some value then go for it. I think there are a couple of other programs I would like to see come in before NDSU. But, it's not like we have a vote.
I haven't looked at the bumbers but isn't 19k bigger than SJSU stadium now? (Only capacity of stadium, no conversation about market 😂)
If the MWC is serious about incorporating OSU and WSU, they need to see potentials in the smaller schools in the West. I would not want Montana for example...they're at their potentials. Give these smaller schools a chance at growth with more resources and they are loyal for life.
Ehhh, probably not.
Quality linebackers with gap integrity is key for defending their offense. I think our base defense, with a flex lineback type with JW is built better to defend this. Not sure how much Odom/Scherer has seen this offense, but I like our personnel.
They redshirted every player of worth last season to be ready for their first year in FBS, especially since FCS told them they could not compete in the FCS playoffs. They tanked the season.You're right about this being the first year, I thought it was last year.
I thought it was last year, because they did not have a good year last year.
We have people in my work system that in on the field with Sam Houston. In fact one of my former students was there last year. It wasn't good.
I don't know how barely mustering 5 wins last year makes them equal to us? We would have gone 8-1 with their schedule with blowouts in every win.
Even so, what about their team makes you think that they are even to UNLV?
I am not a betting man....UNLV plus 3. 4. 5 points seems like. a good bet? Seems like weird at the moment? We just need to see UNLV win...should be a good game.
Trust your eyes. I’ve always said that. Teams, recruits, whatever … you don’t need an expert sportswriter or a talking head to tell you what you see, you’re smart enough to make decisions based upon what you see …
I haven't seen them play yet. So I respect that. They did have respectable showing in their first two showings. Though BYU has started seasons kinda slow in the past, and AFA did lose a lot.
A quarter of the MWC is represented 🤦♂️
