Mattison, Roh officially game-time decisions [Blue Turf Sports]
Two key offensive pieces could be out when Boise State takes on Oregon in the Las Vegas Bowl. Roh has been out with a last two games with an injury to his left ankle, but he really wanted to play in the Mountain West title game. Running back Alexander Mattison had a gruesome lower leg injury vs. Fresno State and was seen on a scooter the next day. It seems unlikely to play but head coach Bryan Harsin says both game-time decisions.
