WAC Conference - Boise State Broncos Preview

Throughout his stay in Boise, Dan Hawkins made the Broncos one of the top-tier teams in the WAC.

The Broncos were a dominating 36-3 from 2002-04, and finished in the top 25 all three seasons. But following 2005's average campaign, Hawkins chose to leave for Colorado and his successor was chosen in-house. New Head Coach Chris Peterson was Boise's offensive coordinator during Hawkins' tenure.

On offense, Jared Zabransky returns for his senior campaign and hopes to make amends for an inconsistent 2005. The O-Line, one of the WAC's best, should improve on last year's numbers. The Wide Receivers are the most experienced unit Boise's had in a long time. The Broncos' offense should easily match or better last year's PPG total of 36.

On Defensive, the Broncos boast nine returnees from last year's unit that allowed an average of 24 PPG. The rush defense has been in the top 16 each of the past four seasons, and the D-Line is returns almost all members. Led by pre-season WAC Defensive Player of the year candidate Korey Hall, the LBs are among the WAC's best. The secondary should rebound from last year's disappointing season with all four starters returning and lots of experience behind them.

Boise also looks solid on Special Teams and should again be one of the country's best as both kickers return with a strong return game.

The Broncos had some disappointments last season with their home winning streak was halted in the MPC Computers Bowl vs. BC, and they lost their first WAC game in 31 tries in Fresno. But they shared a piece of the WAC Title, and enter 2006 rejuvenated. Depending on how the new coaching staff performs, Boise has the players and the schedule to take a strong run at a BCS Bowl.
