Boise State Broncos
Boise State Broncos For most of this decade, Boise State has been the team to beat in the WAC. After quarterback Cole Brennan and Hawaii ripe the title away from the Broncos in 2007, the 17th-ranked Broncos are hungry to reclaim that title.

They take their first step in doing that Wednesday night as the begin conference play at home against the 2-1 Louisiana Tech Bulldogs. Odds makers are calling the 3-0 Broncos 22 point favorites against the Bulldogs.

"What else do you say? They're very deserving of all the attention that they've been getting," said Louisiana Tech coach Derek Dooley. "They invested in their program, put a lot of money into it, got some
good coaches, they recruited well and they play with the kind of intangibles that all championship football teams play with."

The Broncos are 52-4 in WAC play since joining the league including six consecutive wins against Louisiana Tech.

"These are the kind of games we should want to play in as a program. They're not something we should be scared of. We should embrace it, enjoy it," Dooley said. "How well we'll handle it, I don't know."

The Bulldogs did not handle it too well their last time out against a ranked opponent when they lost 29-0 at Kansas State on September 6th. They won't be making any strides against Boise State. Take the Broncos and give the 22 points.
