Boise State offensive line coach Brad Bedell could have blamed the crazy-high expectations. He could have claimed his group isn’t playing as poorly as it appears. He could have emphasized how close his group is to putting all the pieces together.
That’s what many coaches would have done in his situation.
Not Bedell.
“I’m not going to hide,” he said this week. “I understand that I coach these guys — and I love them to death and they’re my guys — and I understand that I’ve got to get them better.”
This likely was one of the most difficult weeks to be an offensive lineman at Boise State.
