Boise State's Monkey Business

Not all that long ago, Boise State players were dragging around several monkeys.  It had to be most uncomfortable carrying these cute but pesky creatures around all these years.  Let's recount the monkeys that have been on the backs of Bronco players.


                    Speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil?




1.  Boise State's a fine Division I-AA team (a national championship and a runner-up) but no way could they compete with the big boys. 


2.  Once Houston Nutt left, that was Boise State's last hope.





3.  Sure you made a bowl game, but no way can you beat a team from the WAC.





4.  Your offensive line can't compete with physical defensive lines (2000 vs. Arkansas).

5.  Boise State is going to be lost without Dirk Koetter.







6.  Bart Hendricks was a great quarterback.  Now we'll see how they do with him gone.





7.  A bowl win over a WAC team is one thing.  Winning a championship in the Big West will never carry over to the WAC.  It's too good of a league.





8.  Winning a bowl game against UTEP and Louisville is one thing, but you can't beat a Big 12 team like Iowa State.







9.  Ryan Dinwiddie was a great quarterback.  Now Boise State will start losing with him gone.




10.  It doesn't matter if the game is in Corvallis or in Boise--the Broncos cannot beat a Pac-10 team.

11.  Now that Dan Hawkins has left, Boise State will slip into mediocrity.







12.  Boise State is no match for the historic program of Oklahoma.





13.  Jared Zabransky took Boise State to a big win but they can't bring in anyone that can achieve similar results.





14.  Boise State had a couple nice wins over Oregon State but they can't beat one of the Pac-10's best and no way they can win in Eugene.  No one wins in Eugene.





15.  The win in Eugene was a fluke.  Oregon has the rematch circled and it will be a different story this time around.







16.  Boise State's done fine in the West but they can't beat a program of Virginia Tech's caliber.




17.  Boise State is 0-4 against the SEC.  That's a different level of football.
