Stuart, Rypien to share Boise State QB duties Friday

“You can’t have five turnovers”. The Broncos went on to win 52-0, and, although the game was a blowout, there was plenty of intrigue during the second half. This is a game that should entertain us. UVa’s special teams coordinator and tight ends coach Larry Lewis is a 1981 graduate of Boise State.

The Broncos bucked the Hoos nearly immediately. The visitors never relinquished control after that moment.

The Broncos (3-1) took back two of Johns’s interceptions for touchdowns, including cornerback Mercy Maston’s 25-yard return with three minutes left in the third quarter for a 46-14 lead. When Johns was intercepted on the next drive, BSU added a field goal for a 17-0 lead a mere 7:07 into the game. This yardage total puts him at the eighth-most by a quarterback nationally. It’s the final out-of-conference game for the Cavs before heading into ACC play. “They’re very athletic, know how to make plays, get the ball out into space and things like that”. Gates led the Stampede to their only D-League championship in 2008 and was 101-51 with the club, winning two Dennis Johnson Coach of the Year awards (the Stamps haven’t had a winning season since). “And sleep some more”. Johns hit junior running back Taquan Mizzell on a short slant route, and Mizzell broke away from the secondary for a 45-yard touchdown reception.

Plus, the visitors ruled the most important category of all in this game: turnovers. The Bronco D got a second interception for a score on a 25-yard Mercy Maston pick. 3. Expect a battle of wits between the defense and offense all night. After three promising performances, Matt Johns completed only 12 of 25 passes for 199 yards. Virginia Cavaliers, on the other hand, ranks No. 74 in rushing offense at home with 174.9 yards. Looking deep for T.J. Thorpe off a play-action fake, Johns was swarmed by the rush, and rather than take the sack, he blindly flipped the ball forward. The Broncos (2-1) are continuing to receive votes though, getting 17 in the latest poll.

Are two quarterbacks better than one? He later added that “they were dropping right into our spots and it was hard”.

Scouting the run defense: The Broncos were expected to dominate against the run this season with their veteran front seven – and they have.

The defense was its usual dominant self against Idaho State.

The Wahoos struggled running the football as they were held to 40 yards on 33 carries as a team for an average of 1.2 yards per carry as a team.

“The plane ride, I’m not too excited about that”, said defensive end Kamalei Correa, who gets one of the 12 coveted First Class seats. In that second half, Rypien tossed two more touchdowns-one of 30 yards and the other for 64. Leading the receiving core is Shane-Williams Rhodes, with 18 catches.

True freshman quarterback Brett Rypien triggered those passes as part of a big night. Both he and Coach Harsin spoke about each player’s different abilities on Sunday during their press conference. But Brown’s schedule as an ESPN analyst has thus far prevented any get-together. “We all have to do a little bit better job”.
