Va Tech/Boise 2nd Half Line/Open Thread
well, well we have a football game. Should be a fun second half. That Boise +1.5 line, could see that hook come in handy. Interesting. Boise starts the half with the ball. Can they come out swinging like the first half?
Here is the second half point spread, I want to get a mgo strawpoll on it
VT -2.5 over Boise
This is just for the combined score of the second half, plus any OT played. So, if you take VT on this line, you technically have them at +3.5 for the final score.
Thoughts?
Also, there are a couple threads going on this game, both have been pushed to the second page. How about this serve as a new open thread for the second half so new arrivals on the night can find it.
Should be a great second half. Two of my favorite teams. I have to keep from fisting pumping every Va Tech good play because I formally took Boise.

Took Va Tech. 56% of public on Boise yet line moves 4 points in favor of Tech. Some one with a lot of money must know something the general public does not. Might be wrong but I will pay to find out.

Sure, we can move over here, but am I the only one who uses the "recent posts" tab instead of the "MGoBoard" tab? I thought everyone did that.
September 6th, 2010 at 9:58 PM ^
You'd be surprised how many people are slow to make the transition.
September 6th, 2010 at 9:59 PM ^
jamiemac, i'm moving over here just to demand an answer to my question from the other thread. In Pick4, what did most people choose for tonight's pick? Did they think Moore would throw an interception or not?
September 6th, 2010 at 10:49 PM ^
Sorry i didnt get back to you. my blog helper has that info so I dont have it right now
I took Yes
September 6th, 2010 at 11:15 PM ^
No problem, I was just kidding. The other thread was getting pretty long. This was a good idea.
I also took Yes, and I overestimated the offensive abilities for week 1. I'm worried that I'll be looking at a 1-3 hole to start the year. There were a couple of almost interceptions that needed to be converted and now they're running out of time.
September 6th, 2010 at 10:01 PM ^
Eh, i just wanted a straw poll on the second half line
and then I envisioned a third de facto open thread breaking out. i would pass out trying to play in all three, lol
September 6th, 2010 at 10:39 PM ^
I got kicked off the site and it took 20 mins to get back on.
September 6th, 2010 at 10:40 PM ^
I think the site crashed.
September 6th, 2010 at 10:41 PM ^
I must be posting too much.........
September 6th, 2010 at 10:51 PM ^
i went to delete the thread because it did seem like the other two were going strong enough. like you said, recent posts. Didnt need the straw poll anymore anyway
I thougth I accidently pressed the delete site buttong or something. Or at least I was scared to death something like that existed and I pressed it. lo
September 6th, 2010 at 10:56 PM ^
"delete site button" Heh. Oh man, you would have made Bartman look like the first citizen of Chicago!
September 6th, 2010 at 10:41 PM ^
In the meantime, this game has turned into a knockdown dragout fight. VT by 1 point right now. The 4th quarter ought to be furious.
September 6th, 2010 at 10:51 PM ^
Ouch! Missed FG by BSU.
September 6th, 2010 at 10:52 PM ^
Kicker had been perfect up to that point. Got to get the snap there or it doesn't matter how good he is.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:00 PM ^
Sick play there by Tyrod, keeping his balance with the back of his hand.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:06 PM ^
Huge drop by the VT receiver and VT has to settle for the fieldgoal. That means that BSU can score a touch down and be up by a fieldgoal. Should be interesting.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:13 PM ^
Looks like it might have been a fake...but delay of game instead.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:16 PM ^
If BSU somehow wins this game, was this style enough to impress voters? Assuming they will be outta sight outta mind later on in the season. I say NO
September 6th, 2010 at 11:19 PM ^
I was very angry the first half but I was impressed that Virginia Tech showed some pride and came back to take the lead.
Hopefully VT holds on :)
September 6th, 2010 at 11:20 PM ^
Tick tock. Things are looking bad for BSU.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:23 PM ^
See if Boise can go Tom Brady here
September 6th, 2010 at 11:24 PM ^
VT throws on 3rd and 8 with 2 minutes left and BSU out of timeouts?? Dumb.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:25 PM ^
So they didnt see a clip after all?
September 6th, 2010 at 11:25 PM ^
LOCK DOWN on Defense Please
September 6th, 2010 at 11:26 PM ^
BSU already in VT territory down to the 40. Dumb call for VT on 3rd down led to this.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:26 PM ^
Ugh. Late hit. Here we go...
September 6th, 2010 at 11:27 PM ^
Suspect call at best
September 6th, 2010 at 11:27 PM ^
That's kind of a BS late hit call. Weak whistle by the official and the WR is still running forward like the play is live. At this point in the game it seems weak to call something of that magnitude.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:29 PM ^
BIG TEN OFFICIALS!
September 6th, 2010 at 11:27 PM ^
That's a weak sauce late hit call. The kid barely stepped out and was 1 foot out of bounds...
September 6th, 2010 at 11:31 PM ^
And we should know.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:28 PM ^
VT outcoaches themselves and BSU scores.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:28 PM ^
WOW JUST WOW
September 6th, 2010 at 11:28 PM ^
It's a real shame this drive started from the 44. Just excellent FP
See
Choke job
September 6th, 2010 at 11:28 PM ^
Remember when Beamer went for 2 at the end of the 3rd?
September 6th, 2010 at 11:29 PM ^
Interesting series of plays. No call on the block in the back. Call on a late hit that was fairly borderline. No call after the WR spikes the ball after the TD.
Hm.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:29 PM ^
please let this game go into overtime.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:31 PM ^
Please no, I have work tomorrow.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:29 PM ^
This has been a hell of a matchup!
September 6th, 2010 at 11:29 PM ^
Perfect execution of a two minute drill.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:30 PM ^
So Boise wins this game and they are looking at a spot in the NC? Give me a break.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:32 PM ^
Yeah really. Both teams strike me as the kind that should be ranked in say the 15-20 range. They've both made a number of mistakes you don't see out of true Top 10 tens.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:36 PM ^
It's week 1. I do wish they played another huge game this year. I'd love to see them play a top team from a bigger conference. That said I mean they have to play the teams that will play them.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:33 PM ^
If they stay undefeated and other teams slip up? Sure, I guess. I do wish they could play a PAC 10 schedule or something.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:30 PM ^
VT ball on the 35 with 1:02 left. There is still time.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:31 PM ^
Field goal? Touchdown? Even my girlfriend is interested in this game. (she is normally only moderately interested in football if it's a Michigan game).
September 6th, 2010 at 11:32 PM ^
Touchdown BSU. They are up 33-30 with 46 seconds left.
September 6th, 2010 at 11:33 PM ^
propose to her now
