Big miss. Lots of special teams errors both ways in this game.

I say Va Tech drives for the game sealing TD here.

Looking back, it was dumb for VaTech to go for 2. If they score a TD here they are only up one score. If they kick the PAT and score again, its a 2 possession game no matter what.

One thing seems clear at this point. Either Boise State is not really #3 in the country or Va Tech is a lot better than most people seemed to think, including myself.

Va Tech is pretty good, always have been but can never get over the hump. Always wins 10 games or so.

I'm hoping VaTech at least gets a field goal here. It would suck for the game to come down to a missed FG by Boise...

What a play by Taylor.....He is a playmaker and has simply put Va Tech on his back and carried this football team....

No, don't think so.

Elbow is but you can use your hand to keep yourself up.

Cannot use the ball though.

I didn't know that.

Store that away for another game and see if they call it the same. haha

just the drive when it was 17-0 was big

Taylor had to make some huge plays on that drive just to get them going

FG probably doesn't do much

he'll probably miss anyway and even if he makes it, Boise will drive down and score a TD I think

so VT needs a touchdown

Hazley finally connects

30-26 VT

I don't think that's enough for VT

Boise will go down and score a TD

Ball was high but needs to be caught by Boykin

It either keeps you within a FG of tying if Boise scores again...or forces them to go for two to make you score a TD. Right move.

In addition to forcing Boise to score a TD in the first place.

Yah I think the 3 points is huge there. Even if Boise State drives down and scores a TD all Va Tech needs is 3 to tie it back up.

Foot or hand only, nothing about the ball being used.
