If the last 5 years hasn't taught us anything about BSU then we haven't been paying attention.

I don't buy in to the idea that winning with a trick play is any less of a win. A win is a win, whether you get it by running up the middle or with an end-around TE pass to your eligible left guard. Everyone plays by the same rules. If you think of a play they haven't, that's you outsmarting them, not cheating them.

That said, if you end up playing the Badgers in a bowl game, feel free to stick to things we can defend, kthx.

I don't either but it's one of the top 3 whines about why BSU isn't a real program that should be taken seriously.

Boise is good. My only problem is their path is easier and it's why I think they should never be in the BCSNCG over an undefeated team from any AQ conference (other than maybe the BE...) and possibly skipped over by a strong 1-loss team.

Any other team in the Top 10 beating UGA would not be noteworthy. The fact that it IS for Boise basically sums up the whole situation.

Yep. For them to be turning down a 3 game series with Nebraska when a .500 UGA team is the toughest opponent on their schedule is a joke.

They seem like the 60s/70s version of Penn State. Too per-occupied with whining to realize that if they improve the schedule, they'll get their shot at the NCG.

That's an astute, well thought out position.

you know what argument is getting old? the whole "well Boise couldn't do this evey week in a strong conference" I'll admit I was one of those who would use that argument, but now would a conference please invite Boise? Because I am sure they would accept it and would gladly take on that challenge.


I wish the PAC would pick them up instead of the garbage we got in Colorado.

I respect BSU and think they're a great team...the problem is everyone wants to see them join an AQ conference to see if they can hang for a 12/13 game season. And the Big East doesn't count :)

What else does Boise have to offer in terms of sporting programs?

Since the win over my Sooners in '06 this is the Broncos BCS resume.

L - @ Washington '07
W - @ Oregon '08
W - Oregon '09
W - @ Virginia Tech '10
W- Oregon State '10
W - @ Georgia '11

I dont get it either. Sure they are a flashy team but who the hell have they beat?

They've got matched up against East Carolina, Utah and TCU in their last 4 bowl games.

OU was a great win, 5 years ago, but they havn't beat anyone of consequence since then.

To be fair, they did beat the Pac 10 winners in 2009 and ACC winners in 2010 (but then again, so did James Madison..)

Fair enough but its time they got put up against a top program and stop riding the wave of the OU win.
