Wow...expect Childs to have

a catch like this. WOuld not be surprised to see Jeron Johnson kill some Vandal today like this......

Meaningless but needed...

Scoreboard will read 63-7, at the end of the bloodbath. I would be okay with a shutout but I can see the 3rd or 4th stringers giving up a lil bit. That being said, it could be all freshman on the defensive side of the ball by the start of the second half.





Could this be the game Ian Johnson gets his 100 yards rushing?


Could Bush Hamdan throw a touchdown to Tyler Shoemaker?

Will Pettis and Childs have more than 3 touchdowns combined?

Will Mike Coughlin impersonate Tim Tebow once again?

Did Coach Akey get out of Pullman since he saw the defensive debacle coming and wanted to tell WAZZU that he had a better team at Idaho than those clowns at WAZZU?

Over/Under on fans streaking the field .5? Never count out Larry Craig fellow classmates?

Is this post more about getting my prediction out there in the blogosphere just in case I nail the actual score vs I really do not want to post anything that will give Idaho any kind of press ( good or bad)? These clowns from the Palouse are just happy to be on the bottom line on ESPN all week...even though they are 36 point underdogs. I guess the guys at College Gameday have to talk a little bit about the highly ranked Broncos and their meek rivals from the North.


Over/Under on fights in the parking lot/stands ...9.5? I am taking the double digits, especially if Joseph Smith ( mugshot below) returns to watch the rivalry game.

Can not excuse the Bing Crosby references to Idaho and that lovely university up there...here is a Moscow native, Josh Ritter, crooning "Idaho" made famous by Bing Crosby

As suspected...Deonte Jackson copied a fellow footballer

Here comes the video of the local high school kid who went "Code Red"on his own coach during a recent playoff game has surfaced...click here for the video feed compliments of KTVB

Surprised the high school running back/homecoming king/wrestler did this much damage with just a few haymakers ( term used loosely). He definitely was aiming for the coach and there was no mistake about what the kid was trying to do.
Play Breakdown
The coach had tried to break up a scuffle post-play after the senior running back as sticking up for another player #10, who was laid out at the conclusion of the play. The cheap shot by Emmett #36 was right before the whistle but with Nampa #10 being completely out of the play and with his back to #36- definitely a cheap shot. I hope the parents and coaches of #36 are really proud of what he started.

After watching the running back get pulled out of the scuffle, it appeared that the running back was headed to the sideline all by himself rather than the coach pushing/guiding him back.

I wonder what the coach said to finally make this kid snap? The kid was headed in the right direction with the help of the stiff arms by the coach but something must have triggered the fisticuffs between the player and coach.

The athlete should be banned and expelled from school. There were rumors of 6 punches to the face, allegedly happening, and I just do no see that many.

Props to Emmett's trainer for trying to help the injured opposing coach. Have to say I was proud of the running back sticking up for his fellow teammate, but went out of bounds once he struck the coach- no excuses!

Shame on you - to see the other Nampa assistant coaches cowering away at the end, not wanting to start anything with the kid that destroyed the head coach's facial features- shame on you. Yes, the one young man ( possibly with a beard) in the blue jacket and tan shorts, with the white hat. You do not like to protect your own.....shame on you!

Names of the players have been purposely left off to protect the potential minors, and hopefully everyone heals up after the drama dies down.

If you see one Bronco in an alley, how many Vandals does it take, to make it a fair fight?

Also in the news....JT Ray from Bronconationnow spews hatred/venom/unbiased rants and Drew @ Fight Fight opines on his take on the Aggie Debacle/Vandal Onslaught....pure comedy

Who ordered the Code Red?

Is this the missing evidence in the Deonte Jackson misdemeanor battery case? Is this proof that the Vandals are encouraged to pimp slap their own brethren?

Statue Left: Did you, Coach Akey, order the CODE RED on the unidentified player, specifically carried out by Deonte Jackson?
Akey: .......No I prefer Diet Mountain Dew......




Running Back Deonte Jackson, who has more rushing yards than Ian Johnson, has found himself in trouble. Up on the Palouse, where a average running back can beat up/or pimp slap a teammate ( who does not want to be identified), then not even get suspended while misdemeanor charges are file......it seems that Akey has his ducks in a row. First he gets lauded for running off the bad seeds with in the last year.....and took the loss of scholarships due to the bad seeds. Now when his star ( use this term relatively) running back is in trouble, the player does not get suspended. What gives.......


That being said, I know their will be some Vandal Trolls who stated, " Better be careful when throwing stones in glass houses".....

My only response is that the head coach at Boise State University has suspended a few players, regardless of playmaking ability, and you would think this approach has limited further transgressions. Maybe after the trouncing this weekend in the airport hanger, Coach Akey can get in Coach Pete's ear and see about a lil guidance.
Bad timing by the unidentified player for bringing up charges on your own running back. You briging this up during " Hate Boise State' week? Which one of these greased up muscleheads ( see pic above) is the one who snitched? Maybe this article got him fired up....a year and a day before the Code Red went down!

Idaho Vandals...are they a relevant rival anymore?

Some would/could debate the need for the Vandals on the schedule. Essentially they are a Div-1AA Big Sky team playing in the WAC since their step-brother to the south remains in the WAC. For the last 7-10 years, I have wondered if this matchup remains a hate-filled rivalry game. The fans new to the Treasure Valley would/could say that this is not a rivalry game simply because the Vandals usually get blown out. Any fan who remembers THE STREAK will casually remind those rookie fans that there is plenty of payback left to dole out......

I will never forget the fake punt against an ailing Pokey Allen.

I will never forget the gutsy playcalling of Chris Tormey....still the best game I have ever seen where the Broncos lost at home.

I will never forget the last game of the Skip Hall era where Idaho just straight trounced the Broncos.

Those are the negatives of the rivalry that still makes some of the fans blood boil......What other memories do you have? Does this game matter? When BSU moves to the Mountain West Conference, will the Idaho game even matter?
