According to Yahoo News the Nevada Wolf Pack beat the number three team in the nation Boise state Broncos this win is the biggest win in school history. This win will get the Wolf Pack into a bigger bowl game but nothing major. This is more of a moral victory for the seniors on the team overall the whole team. This is something that has not happen in a long time. This game made history not only by winning but quarterback Colin Kaepernick set a NCAA record for most running touch downs and the most passing. This is the first time Nevada has beat Boise in 10 years and first time in the top 25 since 1948.
Was this a surprise? I knew all along that Nevada was going to upset the Broncos a lot of it was luck at the end with the two missed field goals by Boise. I think I was more I wanted to see the under dogs knock off the number three team in the nation. This was a huge win for the school.
Why is Nevada still ranked low? It is all about the conference that they play in the WAC does not have many strong teams and does not get any respect that is why Boise is moving to the Mountain West next season but is kind of a letdown because of the departure of TCU another good team. Nevada still has a good record they are a one loss team.
This is a good move for Boise to show that the WAC does have some good teams in it but the problem is that there are a lot of weak teams in the WAC too. This was over all a good win for the Wolf Pack it probably meant a lot for the seniors more than anything first time beating Boise state. I was after all pulling for Nevada to win!
Okay, I think my husband has some competition for being the biggest sports fanatic. Ha! Looking back through all your blogs the majority are about sports. Your enthusiasm reminds me of my husband when talking about sports....any sport. He does the fantasy football and also refferee's basketball and volleyball. Crazy! But I guess I get just as exicited when talking about a great shopping trip or a bargain I found. :)
