also, they weren't in 4th and 1's...it was always 3-4 yards from right at the 40.

and if coaches actually had the balls and intelligence they would realize that it is in their best interest (and statistically proven) to go for it on 4th and less than 4 from the 30 to the 45.

70% of the time when you punt you are gaining 10-25 yard because of the touchback

compond that with the 50% of the time that you would likely get the first down, leading to points.....it should be a no brainer unless you are in certain situations

up late
bad weather vs a bad offense

punting is the chicken shit way of saying, it's not my fault we lost.

another nice move

4th and 4 from the 47, punt

31 on the net and 1 play later they are right where they would have been had you gone for it on 4th down and missed.

Couldn't agree more. Coaches just don't want to answer the questions and take the heat after the game.

Fresno State is done


yep. out played and out coached all around. Fresno made it interesting for a while when Boise blew a punt coverage, other then that it was a whitewash.

Wow nice tackle! A forearm shiver, well coached! :mj07: :mj07:

and yet another td after a punt

hey we didnt give them the short field, we made them earn it.....like they've been doing all night long.

i guarantee that he punts again on 4th and less than 5 from anywhere on the field when in this case down 17 with 11 left he should never punt again.

I am a fking SUCKER for taking Fresno St. +3. What a fking joke that was. I honestly think Vegas LIES about the bet percentages. How can there be a greater percentage of bets on Boise St. (supposedly) but yet the line goes down to +2.5??? Seems like my betting days may be over soon....I just can't afford to keep getting fking suckered like this for the rest of my life....

I have them in a 10 pt teaser and they probably won't even cover that :shrug: :shrug:

statistics may be one thing, but they don't tell the whole story.

Miss one time early and give up a quick td and get behind, it changes the game. Not necessarily talking about tonight as much as "statistics" in general.

There is still a lot to be said for field position. Stats may work out in the end, but by then it might be too late if your behind and other team is playing with lead.

on that note, fresno sucks balls.

a team averages more points scored and doesnt allow any more if they go for it on 4th and less than 4 from the opp 30-45.....
