mamacalled look at the stats bro they tell you everything you need to no they rush approximately 15 times a game. that is until they are up by 50 then its rush every play correct? kellen morre passes every game around 30 to 40 times and averages around 300 to 400 yards a game. im sorry but this is not balance 175 yards rushing and 250 yards now thats balance not boise state. and just wait everyone is going against me saying he will be great ill bet you if he doesnt take the florida job he never leaves. dan hawkins went on record saying boise couldnt survive in a big league. one game this year boise had over 500 yards passing in 3 quarters how is this balance?
They average 200 ypg rushing, good for #24 in the country. They had 449 carries to 384 pass attempts. They had 500 passing yards in three quarters because they run an exceptional pass offense. To use their strength is considered smart. The fact that they can do both is one thing that makes their pass offense so efficient.
Boise couldn't survive in a big league. That's not nearly the same thing as saying Petersen wouldn't succeed. No one knows if he would succeed or not. But, the indications are certainly there that he could be successful if he is given the players and the resources.

here is an example: dan said they were successful two games a year against the big boys cause they could scheme and practice for it every year. alright using that logic put them in the sec, congratulations boise you won two games how bout those other 6? you cant scheme all summer for just two opponents in big leagues. not only that but if his team had equal talent as the other he is going to be out schemed and out played. i no boise couldnt last so do their coaches. this guy is not saban nor meyer. he is comparable to maybe houston nutt.

What is so hard to understand about the talent level he will be playing with at Florida is off the charts compared to Boise. Beating the big programs shows he can come up with game plans to beat the big teams. Oklahoma had just as much time to prepare for Boise as Boise had for them. Va Tech had just as much time to prepare for Boise as Boise had for them.

We know you do not like Boise and you will find most here agree, but to say that Peterson would win around 3 games at Florida is one of the most absurd statements I have ever read on here.

And Oregon admitted to preparing for Boise from the spring on last year. Said they had circled that game on the calendar. Called it their revenge game but still got the crapola beat out of them. Oregon actually ended the game with -1 yard rushing.

well sure if anyone goes to the right program they can succeed. but if you give petersen a team where every other team has equal talent he will lose 3 or more games a year.
What you are failing to realize is that Boise is in a conference playing teams with equal talent. Fact is Petersen gets more out of his talent. They received their first and only 4star recruit last year. Theeir recruiting classes have averaged 2.3 stars the past several years. I don't care how you cut it, you play Oklahoma that is one of the most talented teams in the country and had no more time to prepare for them than they did you, coaching was big.

You are correct. It is all just debate and opinion. Trust me, I am not taking it personal.

Stats dont matter when you put those stats in their correct perspective and that is what Bamacon did.Im sure you get what he is saying but lets say you put uab's defense against high school teams and they would rank #1 every year. Doesnt mean their defense is any good,means the teams they play are awful.So take their rankings and throw them out nearest window.
Except that he's playing with roughly equal talent to his conference foes. It's a testament to his ability that people assume Boise is playing with a fuller cupboard, so to speak.

ill give you the oklahoma edge. they actually are not equally talented the only team is is nevada we saw how that ended. they play no ranked teams in the sec or any big leagues your going to play at least three ranked teams a year. oregon state shouldnt have ever been ranked.so now that down to two teams nevada and vatech. nevada will get killed in a good conference. why do you think three stars at a big conference usually dont see the field much? at boise they see immediate time how do you explain this? three stars dont see the field at florida! those equally talented teams your speaking of usually dont make many bowl games do they? in the sec we had 10 teams that went to bowls. and dont take anything i say personal im sure you guys are all great guys i have never met a bama fan who was not.

rangerman,
Boise's resources are equivalent to teams in their conference. If the talent level is not equal, that's because Petersen is an excellent recruiter, which would be a skill he could use in a big conference. If the talent level is equal, then that would be a testament to his gameday coaching ability. No matter how you break it down, he's competing against similar programs in terms of capabilities. The only unfair advantage Boise has is that stupid blue field.
I actually think Petersen is a gifted evaluator. Kellen Moore is not an NFL QB, but was perfect for the Boise offense. He was a Rivals.com 3-star guy (like other WAC QBs like Colin Kaepernick and Colt Brennan). Ian Johnson, Ryan Clady, Kyle Wilson, these were all two-star guys.

now name me 5 guys from other teams that are nfl bound this spring? now name me the guys nfl bound on boise? and that should prove that without a doubt boise is far superior in talent than any team in that conference.

Boise doesn't have 5 guys going to the NFL. Maybe I misunderstood your point.

Boise will probably have three - Young, Pettis, and Jeron Johnson. But, I'd say that either way the argument goes doesn't mean much. If Boise has more NFL draft picks as any other WAC team, would that not mean Petersen did a great job developing them? If Boise doesn't have as many NFL draft picks, would that not mean he was doing a great job getting the most from his players?
