Boise State Rebounds Against New Mexico
Improvement.
Disaster averted (for now...)
While Boise State didn’t clobber New Mexico as they have in previous matchups, they looked more prepared than last week. Opponent aside, the Broncos’ defense showed out throughout the game and special teams was vastly improved, other than a Lobo kick return touchdown.
Despite the offense looking better, Hank Bachmeier and company did come out of the gates slow with back-to-back three and outs. The pass protection was as expected with the Bronco size advantage in the trenches, but the running game still wasn’t up to par with what it is capable of.
2nd Quarter (14:53) - 18 yard pass from QB Hank Bachmeier to WR Latrell Caples (Dalmas PAT)
