Boise State #3 in Blue Through and Through Top 25 College Football Teams

Since it is obvious that most voters in the polls do not actually watch the games, here are my ratings (Someone has to set them straight...)


Boise State is ahead of Oklahoma because Oklahoma shied away from giving Boise State a tougher schedule in the Big 12.  If a team refuses to play another team, advantage to the team that is being avoided.  Ditto for the Pac-12...an undefeated Boise State will always be ahead of any Pac-12 team for the same reason.


1.    Alabama
2.    LSU
3.    Boise State
4.    Oklahoma

5.    Arkansas
6.    Clemson
7.    South Carolina
8.    Oklahoma State
9.    Stanford
10.  Oregon
11.  Wisconsin
12.  Virginia Tech
13.  Houston
14.  Nebraska

Boise State Grounds Air Force 3-0

The Boise State volleyball team got a much-needed road win at Air Force last night.


The Broncos won 25-13, 25-19, 25-17 to record their second Mountain West victory against three defeats.  Freshman Brittany Reardon had nine kills, Breann Nesselhuf had six kills, 17 assists, 10 digs, three aces and three block assists and Casey Rose had 14 assists as Boise State improved to 11-8 overall.


"This was a big win for us on the road in league, it will help our confidence," said Boise State head coach Shawn Garus.  "We played really well tonight.  We have struggled a little lately and to come out with a conference win on the road is big for us. Several people stepped up for us in the match, Brittany (Reardon) hit the ball solid and Bree (Nesselhuf) had a big night for us as well. 


Victoria Foster paced the Falcons with 11 kills while Cami Richan and Ayesha Hein had six kills each.


The Broncos visit Utah Valley in a non-conference tilt Monday night.
