<p>&nbsp;</p><p>Okay, well my foot is in my mouth, and I have no problem taking it out of my mouth in front of the world or the several thousand fans that visit my website. Basically, I called Boise State a heartless team. I called them heartless, because I felt the team should have done something to Lagarrette Blount when he clocked their teammate. I mean they simply watched Blount swing, connect, back up, dare someone else to do something and he simply walked off the field scott free. My opinion hasn&rsquo;t changed, I still think they should have done something, but that&rsquo;s neither here nor there.</p><p>The matter at hand is this, to the 2009-2010 Boise State Bronco football team, I apologize for calling you heartless. You&rsquo;ve always had my respect regardless of my remarks, but you gained even more of it with your play last night. You essentially clobbered a TCU team that everyone in America outside of Idaho expected to win. 17-10 doesn&rsquo;t exactly sound like a clobbering, but given TCU&rsquo;s athleticism, you all clobbered them. I still feel like TCU was the more athletic team, but Boise State hit them in the mouth, TCU tried to fight back, and Boise State just had more heart. You saw especially when the TCU offense and Boise State defense was on the field.</p><p>TCU&rsquo;s offensive players were out of sink all game long. Their receivers were shook and dropping passes. Their offensive line was dominated and barely fought back. Andy Dalton rarely had anytime to throw. When he did have time to throw, his clear lack of arm strength showed. I had no clue how weak his arm was, and realized why people are so enamored with arm strength. If you can&rsquo;t throw the deep out in the pros you are in trouble. Dalton can&rsquo;t even throw the deep out at the college level. When Dalton was able to get the ball to this receivers they were covered and balls were broken up as well as the receiver&rsquo;s morale.</p><p>The TCU defense didn&rsquo;t back down, and virtually kept the prolific Boise State offense without a touchdown until the 4th quarter when Boise pulled another trick play in a BCS game. It was beautifully ran fake punt pass over the middle to the tight end. The momentum swing after that play killed the TCU defense for a brief moment and Boise got the go ahead score.</p>
