Oregon 8 at Boise St 19 (Final)

Man, this is a tough one to pick. I love that blue turf, but I also love those fluorescent yellow uniforms with angel wings.

This might be the most aesthetically pleasing game ever played.

I will probably have to wear those big bomb Solar Shields to watch the game.

Oregon on the smurf turf.

My prediction: 2 million American males will be futzing with the contrast, brightness, and color balance on their TVs, wondering what the hell is wrong with the picture.

From Stewart Mandel on SI.com:

Oregon at Boise State, Thursday (10:15 p.m.): Bad blood lingers in Eugene from last year's game at Autzen Stadium, in which two Broncos players were penalized (one of them ejected) for late hits against the Ducks. Most notably, now-departed safety Ellis Powers sent Oregon QB Jeremiah Masoli out with a concussion. Said Ducks RB LeGarrette Blount to SI's Austin Murphy: "We owe that team an ass-whuppin'."

I am not buying into Boise State yet this year. A lot of people have them ranked as high as #15 to start the year, and they lost 3 of their top 4 receivers from last year and the best RB in school history. If they knock off Oregon I'll give them the credit they deserve, but I don't think they are all that good to start the year and (believe it or not) they are getting props based on their name.

Ian Johnson actually rarely played last year, so that isn't a big blow.

He didn't get as many carries last year, but he played enough to average a TD per game. That isn't a big deal when you're winning by 40 points against the WAC, but it might mean everything against a big boy team.
