Presented by RIB SHACK BARBECUE & CATERING. Wednesday, February 3, 2021. It’s going to be a quiet National Letter of Intent Day, as most of Boise State’s heavy lifting was done in December.

SCOTT SLANT: Reinforcements needed
Presented by VETERANS PLUMBING. Tuesday, February 2, 2021. So much happened in January that this has kind of snuck up on us. Wednesday is National Letter of Intent Day in college football. It isn’t what it used to be, as most of the activity these days occurs around the early signing day in December. But…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: Back from the big detour
Presented by RIB SHACK BARBECUE & CATERING. Monday, February 1, 2021. There was nowhere to go but up after the thrashing Boise State took at Colorado State last Wednesday.

SCOTT SLANT: How do they get their groove back?
Presented by LOUIE’S PIZZA & ITALIAN RESTAURANT. Friday, January 29, 2021. Considering this is Boise State’s 10th season in the Mountain West, the fact that a 22-point loss is the Broncos’ worst ever in the conference is not bad. The fact that it happened two nights ago with what is theoretically the school’s best team…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: Worse than their worst fears
Presented by BBSI BOISE. Thursday, January 28, 2021. Boise State’s 13-game winning streak is over after the Broncos were run out of Moby Arena Wednesday night. Colorado State got hot in the first half and led by 15 points at the half, and as good as the Rams are, it was probably going to be…… MORE

SCOTT SLANT: First in line (just win, baby)
Presented by BBSI BOISE. Tuesday, January 26, 2021. It won’t matter if Boise State doesn’t sweep Colorado State in Fort Collins this week—a difficult task against a team that just took down Utah State. But if the Broncos can pull it off against CSU, they know where they’ll be a week from now. Boise State…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: Tim Keane & the sack data
Presented by RIB SHACK BARBECUE & CATERING. Monday, January 25, 2021. Boise State has another “Davis guy” on the staff (and a one-time Yotes guy, for that matter) with the hiring of Tim Keane as offensive line coach on Friday. This is a critical position. Just ask any Broncos fan. But really, it is. What…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: Lessons to be learned
Presented by RIB SHACK BARBECUE & CATERING. Friday, January 22, 2021. Future opponents of Boise State will be racking up the video from the first half of Wednesday’s Fresno State game, do you think? So the Broncos will strive to make sure those brutal 20 minutes aren’t repeated when they host the Bulldogs in Game…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: Another tie to the best of eras
Presented by the ASHLEY INN OF CASCADE. Thursday, January 21, 2021. And there it was Wednesday afternoon. KTVB’s Jay Tust broke the news that former Boise State star Jeron Johnson will be joining Andy Avalos’ staff.
