That was a fun game to watch. Idaho seems like a flawed, incomplete team with some talent here and there. They found a way to make it work and win most of their games despite some clear deficiencies on defense. I see no reason why we should not expect to be as good or better than that next season with the players we have returning.

Oh my God, what a great game, anyone else watching this game... amazing game. Idaho wins 43-42 with a two point conversion. Amazing....

Wow alot of teams you wouldnt expect to be in bowl games, like Idaho, Bowling Green, Temple, and Texas A&M

Makes me so frustrated about NT

Huh? I think last year was actually unusual in that they didn't.

If they want to think about maybe 15-20 years down the road aren't they better off building a new stadium? They can build a new stadium and if the program becomes pretty big they can always expand it. Even after all of the renovation it will seat only about 20K people. I'm a little skeptical on this project but more power to them.

Speaking of Idaho look what they are planning to do with the Kibbie Dome:

Kibbie Dome an icon? How about an eyesore? Talk about putting a dress on a pig. That tiny new VIP parking lot looks like a service drive utility entrance, and "expanded" to seat 20,000?? They just need to rip out one side of that airplane hangar and double-deck the seats with a new roofline to hold a min. of 30K, otherwise what's the point?

I think the Kibbie Dome renovations are pretty cool. It would be a great place to watch a game. Packing 20k in that place would be a big homefield advantage (unlike 20k at Fouts).

I do consider the Kibbie Dome somewhat of an icon. It would be great if they could have somehow increased the seating to near 30k, while keeping the original structure aesthetics in tact.

I think you should talk to TastyGreek about this. He has some innovative ideas in the field of multiple off-angle seating. A pioneer in the field, really.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      The McGill non-TD was 50/50. With my green glasses on, the ball broke the goal line more or less as his knee hit. The problem was that they didn’t call it a TD and therefore harder to call the TD on replay when that close. The real problem is our inability to get TDs when in the redzone, particularly short yardage. Can’t run for one yard and it’s pathetic. Should never need to pass from the one yard line and if we do it should be some kind of play action misdirection to a block and release TE. The play calling in general was terrible this game. The decision making (on sides kick) was even worse.

      McGill scored in the 2nd Quarter.

      So was the radio play-by-play. Wish there was a video replay for me to see this. I also wish there was better checks-and-balances. In the NFL, can't a team submit a replay of a call to the NFL office for review, even if it doesn't mean a change in the final score? At least there would be some transparency and accountability. Based on the radio play by play, you would think that giving McGill the TD was a no-brainer, and the game might have ended up very differently. An option offense playing from behind is very different from one playing to keep a lead.. (granted, it was still early in our game)

      No moral victories

      We knew this 3-game stretch of Memphis, Tulane and Army would be tough. We lost by 8, 8 and 11 points. We are another year away (with better players and coaches).

      Any way to see the replay?

      Fire the OC. The defense showed up.

      3 times within 15 yards and walking away with 0 points. There is nothing about that that is on the defense. Emmitt is right.
