Game over...BSU loses by two touchdowns.

They're pretenders...

They win one game against a major FBS opponent, and all of the sudden they are a superpower. They also lost pretty good to UGA in 2005.

One major FBS opponent? Had Oklahoma not lost one game (we know what game that was) they would have been in the national championship game.

Don't forget Boise absolutely annihlated Oregon State who then beat USC later that season and went 10-3.

It's amazing the ignorance of you east coasters xrolleyesx

I"m sure he's aware of all the things you posted. Oklahoma was a solid BCS league team and a league champion. But it clearly did not belong in the BCS championship game and wouldn't have been in the Big 12 championship game if Texas' QB wouldn't have gotten hurt so that the Longhorns stumbled late in the season. The Sooners were not a top 10 caliber team.

I agree with the statement that Boise State is a "pretender." I think that because I think the Boise State community is one of those football program communities that's constantly trying to pretend that the program is something it's not. I do not think it is a "major" FBS football program. I think it has the record it has in recent years because it plays weak schedules by FBS standards. I think that's illustrated by the fact that the program is now 4-12 against BCS league teams. If you add games it played as a I-A before the start of the BCS it's 4-15 against teams from "major" conferences.

I don't think the Broncos are not what its community thinks they are. I think that they played a superior team in a Bowl game last year under circumstances where they pointed to the game a lot more than an opponent that was disappointed that it wasn't playing somewhere else. I think they cared a whole lot more about the game than OU did.

And I think that if you'd have put them in any of the BCS leagues so that they'd have to have played a series of games repeatedly against BCS league competition they'd have come nowhere close to going undefeated. I'll never know on that last one, but that's what I think.

The Big XII was pretty weak last year, and the Pac-10 wasn't that great, either. And what was Washington's record last year, anyways?

Seems to me that BSU just has the benefit of the "underdog" mentality. I'd bet they could not even win half of their games in the SEC or ACC.

The Huskies are the real deal. The Pac-10 is looking stronger and stronger.
