Very interesting comments from Matt Lauter and Spencer Danielson postgame on team captain Kage Casey not even being in LA tonight:

Poor, Matt Lauter. One of our most talented receiving TE’s we’ve ever had and we hardly got him the ball his Senior year. Guarantee he turned down bigger money to go elsewhere this year too.

Credit for you asking the question but the second part he avoided like a politician.

we need a coach not a pastor

Well damn. I can’t wait for us to speculate on this for 8 months!

God Danielson better find a QB

We hear “we’ve gotta be better” way too much

Props for asking the question

What’s with the 17 jersey up there ??

The WORST team in the mountain west in CSU was tied with Washington going into the 4th earlier this year. The fact that Boise couldn’t put together one solid quarter against them is embarrassing

@SSN_BoiseState Hope no one suggests you didn’t ask the hard questions tonight. Did he respond to the second part of your question or was that it?

@SSN_BoiseState Yes, I just cut that off the clip. It’s on our site and YouTube channel.

Think bowls will be going away. Unfortunately college football has changed so much from what it once was.

Thanks for asking the QB question, but from his past comments, no changes on the horizon!

we honestly have to ask ourselves why we even have bowl games. there is nothing at stake. They are expensive and meaningless, and the talent drain makes them almost unwatchable.

Guys abandoning their team is bullshit.

Bowls are broken.

Translation: He bailed on us so F that guy.

Again… if it doesn’t seem right it’s probably not!

This players coach mentality needs to be done. A winning mentality needs to be taken. Indiana 2 years ago was an even playing field to BSU and now look at them. Scenarios are different but it’s a measuring stick for sure.

Stop the madness. This team won 9 games and probably could have won either San Diego State or Fresno State has Madsen been healthy. Any college coach will take a 10 win season.

Huge bummer he wasn’t there. The back up LT got burned on the sack that took MM out.

Sunday players and portal players no matter how loyal have too much to risk playing in now meaningless minor bowl games. Fans are no longer shelling out hard earned cash to travel to attend.

Sounds like he just said he wasn’t going to play….smh

Was he hospitalized?

@grok transcribe the video please

Yes great double question… did not sound committal to the quarterback

Lauters response to your questions says a lot. He knows there needs to be open competition, it almost appeared he was looking to coach to finally say what Matt knows is necessary

“I’m not going to answer that question.” We learned One thing last night. When you get Matt Lauter the rock the team scores points. Fresno State & SDSU did not need to happen.
