From some comments Mike Gundy made in a recent press conference, one can derive a few key points in determining the Cowboys’ chances of victory this weekend.
“Other than that, we play a good team this week. I don’t think I need to say a lot about Boise State. They’re very well-coached and play very sound football. They have very good players and are traditionally a top-20 team. This is, in my opinion, a very good year for them.
They’ve got a lot of players back, the quarterback is experienced, mature and they’re top 10 or so offensively and probably top 10 defensively, or at least really high.
