Some would say that a preseason #3 shouldn’t have to come back late in the 4th quarter of their first game no matter who they’re playing and that opinion has some merit. But Virginia Tech looks to be a pretty damn good team and Boise State outplayed them when it mattered…early & late…so I doubt they will lose their ranking just yet.
That will have to wait until October 2nd when an unbeaten #5 Texas beats the piss outta #7 OU in the Red River Rivalry and Boise plays, ahem, the Little Sisters of the Poor New Mexico St.
Oh, and I know exactly why you come here (not for the intelligent sports analysis, for sure), so I left in the “mf” caught by the ESPN mic just as the game ended. See if they do that for you over at Deadspin.
