3. Secondary turnaround

Boise State was lit up last week against San Jose State by Jordon Love and the Spartan passing attack. The Broncos gave up almost 400 yards through the air and were picked on all night in the secondary. Luckily for Boise State, Wyoming loves its run-heavy offense and stays on the ground for the most part.

With the Wyoming offense focusing heavily on the run game, the Boise State secondary may get some breathing room in Week 11. On the flip side, because the secondary has been so weak for BSU, we could see Wyoming air it out a little bit more than usual.

Regardless of the gameplan for Wyoming, we should expect the Boise State defense to bounce back in a big way. Star defensive end Curtis Weaver has been quiet the last couple of games and he should get back to his ways at home. Getting Weaver going again should help that secondary as well. Expect the secondary to have a bounce-back game and keep Wyoming to their ground game.
