First of all it was Boise State’s first game of the season also, and not only did Boise State beat Oregon on their own field, but when Oregon ran their mouths and how they were going to pay Boise back all they did was lay a fat egg. Say what you want but not having a first down for three quarters warrants a little respect. Would Boise State win the Pac-10 no, but does Boise State have the money or recruiting power that Oregon does No! Let Boise play in the Pac-10 for 4 years and see what happens. Make all the excuses you want Oregon fans but fact remains Boise State beat you not once but twice and once on your own field, Oregon fans should be embarrassed and get ready for the whooping Ohio State is about to hand them in the Rose Bowl, oh and like good Oregon fans I am sure your coming up with good excuses for why they are going to lose that game already.

THE FACT THAT IF UR GONNA BE MAN ENOUGH TO TAUNT SOMEONE, U’D BETTER BE MAN ENOUGH TO BACK IT UP! IM SICK AND TIRED OF ALL THESE STUPID LAWS TRYING TO DICTATE WHATS OK FOR US TO DO OR NOT TO DO. ITS CALLED INSTINCT…BEING A MAN…STANDING UP FOR URSELF AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN. HAVING A BACKBONE. I THINK FOOTBALL SHOULD INHERIT SOME OF HOCKEYS RULES ON FIGHTING!

Perspective Guy – here’s some perspective:
It is fair to say that we cannot blame Boise State for belonging to a relatively weak conference. There’s a history to that, and the politics of conference scheduling hamstring them to it. HOWEVER, it’s what Boise State — which has for some years now been trying to bill itself as a top BCS-caliber program — has chosen to do with its non-conference schedule that irks those who think BS does not deserve its touted ranking. Any lower program can win one game against a big team, especially very early in the season — is there an example of this happening later in the season (think not). Boise State doesn’t seem to make an effort to play with enough big boys out of conference at big times of the season, unlike a number of other big-time teams. The fact that they don’t seem to try harder to do this — even on a one-time basis (as I know some big teams they’ve approached have not agreed to a home-and-home arrangement) almost suggests they realize what would happen if they tried to step it up. If they continue not to do this, then the best reputation they can hope for is MVP for playing the flawed BCS system, a bit like beating big teams in bowl games not head-on, but on trick plays — “slow clap”

I think that the worst part of Hout’s lack of judgment was to seek out a frustrated 250lb. athlete and talk trash with his helmet off. Umm, can you say duh? What did he expect?

Thank you for refraining from calling me a racist like Dave did. Based on Blount’s actions, not his race, I don’t think he should be on the team. I would definitely call a “white” player who acted the same way Blount acted a “thug”. But since he African American, and I since others have interpret that word as containing racial overtones (which I did not intend), I retract and apologize for my use of that word.
For the record, my wife and kids are not Caucasian and I do pro bono (free) legal work for African American (and other) clients. I have never been called a racist by anyone before Dave’s comment.
One more point. From a legal and moral standpoint, the fact that one person taunts another one is NOT an excuse to clock them. It is a criminal act. If Blount tries the same thing outside of a game the local district attorney and judge will so inform him.

I agree. Road games are always tough and need to be earned. Can’t overlook Stanford OR Arizona.

I HATE BOISE STATE!! I HATE MIKE STOOPS!! I HATE THE ARIZONA WILDCATS!!
Arizona’s given Oregon problems, not only with losses, but remember the Kellon Clemens bull? I hate Boise State, because of what they’ve done to the Beavers and Ducks. I hate how they get this “media darling” stroking and all of this bull.
Now, if Oregon can win out, here’s what I can see happening: Florida slips, then Texas and Alabama play in the BCS Title Game, and Oregon beats Iowa in the Rose Bowl. Texas/Alabama and Oregon get a split national championship. Colin Cowherd thinks that Chip Kelly is the “peddle to the metal” coach Oregon’s always needed. I really really hope he’s right.

I love how Hout is like an innocent bystander to these BSu fans, it’s hilarious. Sorry Blousy state, you thought you got what you wanted, but guess again, Blount is not a thug (you damn racist) and he will play again this year. Sorry bout that.
