Boise State Broncos vs. Georgia Bulldogs

Two Weeks from tonight Boise State and Georgia tee it up in the Georgia Dome. It will be one heck of a game and one of the featured games of the weekend.

I sure am looking forward to that game, I think Boise has a great shot to redeem itself from the beating we took back in 2005 between the hedges in Athens, Georgia.

This time around we have a different and better coaching staff than the 2005 Broncos, we have a much better more composed quarterback, Kellen Moore finish 4th in the Heisman and is 8 games away from becoming the wining-est quarterback in college history.

Georgia like the Broncos is minus their two best receivers so both teams will be looking for help from new guys and former backups.

Offensively I have to give the edge to BSU in the running back department. Georgia is missing there two best runners while Boise has Doug Martin and DJ Harper back.

Harper is hungry and has alot to prove. In the first half of the 3rd game of the season these last two years Harper tore the acl in the left knee and each year sat out the rest of the season.

In tonight's scrimmage both Martin and Harper looked awesome, both appear ready for the Bulldogs in the Georgia Dome. Having them carry the mail will take pressure off Moore and make the Georgia defense play more honest.

I do not know much about the Georgia Defense but do think they are much better than their 2010 6-7 record indicate. They do have two monsters are the nose guard position. One man weighs in at 350 lbs and the smaller guy at a slim 340. It is difficult for me to imagine men that size and then toss in they are quick and athletic. They will test the Bronco center all night.

I think it will be as close and exciting game as last years opener against Beamer Ball and Virginia Tech back in DC.

Like the VT game I think Boise wins a close one and it will be on the legs and backs of Doug Martin and DJ Harper
