SCOTT SLANT: Giant exhale on the Blue
Presented by LOUIE’S PIZZA & ITALIAN RESTAURANT. Monday, November 11, 2019. It could be considered a “fantastic finish” in the Albertsons Stadium history book—a missed field goal in overtime by Wyoming to send Boise State storming onto the field with a crucial 20-17 victory. But it was so unnecessary that it got that far. These…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: The 2019 attendance phenomenon
Presented by CLEARVIEW CLEANING. Friday, November 8, 2019. What is happening in the stands at Albertsons Stadium this season?

SCOTT SLANT: Awaiting the full Bronco arsenal
Presented by MAZ-TECH AUTOMOTIVE. Thursday, November 7, 2019. There’s only one ball to go around.

And with Wyoming coming to the blue turf Saturday night with a reputation for…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: The Group of 5’s group of five
Presented by CLEARVIEW CLEANING. Wednesday, November 6, 2019. From a Group of 5 perspective, the first College Football Playoff rankings of the season weren’t too surprising Tuesday night.

SCOTT SLANT: AVB’s ‘Aha!’ game
Presented by MAZ-TECH AUTOMOTIVE. Tuesday, November 5, 2019. The player who coach Bryan Harsin seems to be the most excited about coming out of the win at San Jose State is Andrew Van Buren.

SCOTT SLANT: A Bronco fact not to forget
Presented by CLEARVIEW CLEANING. Monday, November 4, 2019. Before going into the idiosyncrasies of Boise State’s 52-42 comeback win at San Jose State, let’s look at the Broncos’ ever-underappreciated big picture.

SCOTT SLANT: Something about sacks
Presented by ADVANCED VISION THERAPY CENTER. Friday, November 1, 2019. This week it’s been all about San Jose State’s Josh Love and his unexpected rise to top three status among Mountain West quarterbacks. Love led the nation in passing yards in October.

SCOTT SLANT: Spartan Stadium memories for Halloween
Presented by BACON. Thursday, October 31, 2019. Happy Halloween. Which brings up a place that has been a house of horrors (or close to it) for Boise State in autumns past. Three times the Broncos have taken undefeated teams to Spartan Stadium and San Jose State, and two of them were gut-wrenching adventures. The first…… MORE
SCOTT SLANT: Back to Bach?
Presented by BACON. Wednesday, October 30, 2019. If Hank Bachmeier is ready to go for Boise State at San Jose State Saturday, the hope is that he and the Broncos can get back to their winning ways.
