The Broncos have to be disappointed after last week’s loss at the hands of BYU, which gummed up any chance of this being an especially great season – they would have had to be perfect.
Still there is no doubt who is the best team in the state of Idaho. If the Bengals can be half decent they might prove to be second best.

These teams have met twice and the combined score was 111-7 so no surprise the line is off on Friday night.
Idaho State
The Bengals have put up a 1-1 record and now they are looking to get paid by going on the road against a couple of FBS opponents.
I am not sure how much we know about this ISU as they completely obliterated Black Hills State University (I have never heard of it) but lost to Portland State last week.
Really this group is just looking to not embarrass themselves which means not turning it over or taking a lot of nervous penalties.

Based on past performance this isn’t going to be much of a game and the fact that Boise lost last week doesn’t held Idaho State in the least.
Boise State
There is no other way to put, the Broncos fell apart late, losing to BYU on the road even though they carried a 10 point lead into the fourth quarter…against the Cougars second string quarterback.
Coming into the season they knew they were going to have their own challenges at the position. Through a couple of game Ryan Finley has not looked up to the task. It is also not helping that the Broncos are not able to run the ball. They are usually one of the more balanced teams around which is why their trickery works so well.

Boise State is looking to use this game to get back to basics. The way they are playing right now they are not looking like a team that is going to dominate a weak Mountain West. This is a game to get Finley right and to get back to the Boise football we are used to.
This battle for Idaho might be on your TV but you don’t have to watch it. Save your stamina for Saturday.
