Boise State and Oklahoma State possess two of the most entertaining college football programs in the country — and they’ve given their fans plenty of reason for optimism this season.
The Broncos and Cowboys are a combined 4-0 with 231 points scored and 57 points allowed. Their quarterbacks have combined for 1,395 yards and 13 touchdown passes. The teams are both ranked in the Top 25 — as has become expected for both programs.
Yet there’s reason for pessimism, too.
Those four wins have come against Troy, UConn, South Alabama and Missouri State. While Troy is a solid program reloading after an 11-2 season, the rest are coming off dreadful seasons.
