funny thing is that they TRIED to step up their schedule and they played Georgia about 3 or 4 years ago....they got taking behind the woodshed before the game was 10 minutes old....came crawing back to Boise with their tail between their legs...haven't seen 'em venture anywhere since. At least Pat Hill and Fresno DO adhere to the play anyone anywhere motto....Boise will duck anyone anywhere and then rack up a BS record and claim they are legit.....  |
Choose a better conference and you may be right. Big Ten Stinks. Sorry, I am in Big Ten country and watch that garbage weekly.
Boise St. beat Oklahoma in a BCS bowl a couple years ago. They are a perfect reason why there should be a playoff, then we could see. I like how they beat Oregon this year, yet everyone just discounts them.
And this "If they played in .... conference" doesn't work. There are inherent advantages to being an SEC or Big Ten Institution. The conferences have more money through premium tv contracts, better stadiums, a larger alumni base, tradition, etc....so they can't recruit the same talent level. But I will tell you this, Boise St. is coached as well as any of em.
If you put Boise State in the Big Ten for a good 20 years and gave them the same amount of money for facilities, recruiting, etc....I am sure they would compete just fine. Bottom line is they do more with less on a yearly basis and they shouldn't be punished for it by the BCS snobs and elite. Playoffs please.
