    I still don't believe VT is a shit team.. I think this is a common overreaction to a loss. I think there are Boise haters out there, which is fine, but they are a solid squad this year... No doubt.

      The better team doesn't always win. Sometimes teams game plan poorly, or quarterbacks get nervous on the road, or guys are injured, suspended, guys underestimate their opponnents... good coaches spot weaknesses and attack them with strong game plans...

      If you are Alabama, and you have a shitty game against LSU, you lose.
      If you are Boise State and you have a shitty game against Wyoming you still win


      See the difference? Bama could go 10-2 when they get outplayed by one of the STRONG teams they play against... Boise State has a couple hard games per year and then cruise control... They should still be able to beat their opponents when they play shitty games.

        I'll give it to them that they are definitely solid but they aren't national championship quality...they need to join a LEGIT conference to win people over so this debate will end

          Agreed, but I do think their team is Top 5 quality, which translates into a POSSIBLE National Championship appearance..

              They played well against VT. The defense hit hard... the D-Line came at you relentlessly... special teams... late game quartebacking...

              Boise State is well coached, I have to give that to them.

                That's the public opinion.. They just continue to make people look stupid.. I've definitely made some cash off of Boise, for this reason alone..

                  We will see what happens the rest of the year.. After Oregon State, they SHOULD roll.. Still a LONG season.. Lots of things can happen!

                    I hope Boise State even with an unbeaten record don't get a shot at the National Championship. There win against VTech was a huge win on the road whether Tech won today or lost. With Boise's upcoming schedule theres no reason why they shouldn't go unbeaten. Until they start playing some top 25 ranked teams (which isn't their fault that they don't) you cannot rank this team as the best football team in the Nation period.

                      To me, 'Bama is by far the best team in CFB..

Giving them that 1 shot would decide a lot. If they win we see that Boise and some other small schools and small conferences having been getting screwed. If they get blown out then we can say that they don't belong in the national title conversation. We need a playoff system plain and simple. I would like to see a 16 team playoff.
                        This is my fundamental problem with letting BSU play for the NC. I agree that in a one-game situation, BSU can likely play with just about anyone. Lets be honest - does anyone really think that if Va Tech played JMU another 10 times that JMU would win another one? My issue with BSU is that they are the only school in the country that can play two average opponents and 10 cupcakes and get a shot at the title. Why would ANYONE schedule hard opponents anymore if that can happen? Why should Bama play UF/UGA/LSU/etc. if they can get in by beating Penn St and a bunch of weaker opponents?

                          I can see some bitter people in here that can't handicap and thus take it out on Boise St. Let the wins speak for themselves.

                            Look out for JMadison this year, pretty sure they'd whip Bama and the SEC if given the chance.

                              Exactly - let the wins against real opponents speak for themselves - glad to see we are on the same page!

                                      If Alabama and Ohio St go undefeated which is very likely then Boise St will be left out no matter what.

                                        Fish,
                                        I think you are correct. The value of Boise's victory went right down the tubes with JMUs victory over Va. Tech today...

                                            I do not think it will play a major factor

                                            at the end of the year beamer will get his 10 wins like he always does

                                                3-6 teams could have ONE loss and wlll be ranked ahead of BSU at seasons conclusion...........these are the hard cold facts.

                                                Anyone that doesnt understand this is clueless.

                                                        Agree Boise State lost more than any other team today and didn't even take the field! Totally dilutes their win and makes it irrelevant come the end of the season.

                                                          Look at it from an optimist point of view. Boise St beat the Hokies so bad that they couldn't beat James Madison.
