Since when? This year? Last 5 years? All time?

If it's this year, not including Oregon is kind of silly considering they just beat Stanford on the road.

If it's the last 5 years, not saying Washington or Oregon is silly.

If it's all time, not saying USC is just flat out stupid.

Yeah. Context. It matters. I like Boise, a lot. But context is everything...

I'd be happy to be listed in the Top 5 in the last 10 years.

Easily top 5 the last 10 years. Name 4 better

Boise
Oregon
Washington
USC
Utah??

That's a quick list off the top of my head and in no particular order but Boise is easily in there

This is very fair. No question scheduling is a huge component here that clearly favors BSU. However, just for context, BSU hasn't played USC in the last 10 years, but I believe our record vs. the other 3 is 8-1 in the last 10 years.

Boise is 100% a top 5 west coast team in the last 10 years. I agree with you that the schedule has probably played a part in it, but the record against those teams speaks for itself. They have multiple wins over P5 teams on the road and in neutral site games

Top 5 past 10 years on the West Coast (pac conference championship wins past 10 years)
1. Oregon (4)
2. Washington (2)
3. Stanford (3)
4. Boise State
5. USC (1)

Which is a good argument for letting Boise State into the pac. Balance them by adding BYU to the south. The pac could use the attention and new fan bases.

I heard Clemson has a satellite campus in Oxnard, CA. So the correct answer is Clemson

BYU is too conservative for the P12, and they will use academic snobbery to block Boise (kind of like the ACC did with WVU just prior to adding the Harvard of the Midwest, Louisville).

There is no "best" football team west of the Rockies.


Obviously a trick question.
Good spoof thread though.

Boise State has certainly been the most consistent program west of the Rockies over the past 15 years.

Not so sure where Stanford came from in the OP...
