BOISE STATE - NEAR THE END OF THE LINE?

boise state, a two touchdown favorite against nevada tonite probably has to beat the spread to satisfy the football authorities. 

my grand daughter living within walking distance of the school opted to go elsewhere.  simple me, i would have selected the glamour and fame of boise state.  i was so proud and uplifted in 1950 when my CCNY team won both the nit and ncaa basketball tourneys.  although having nothing to do with their victories, my self esteem was enhanced forever.  not only was CCNY superior in its academic work but we were superior physically also.  let us just say supermen.  get lost, ivy league. no george w bush's here.
