They lose to USC

it will work out in the end if boise keeps winning. if a team goes undefeated in the sec they deserve to be in the championship game no matter what...auburn will lose a game don't worry.

exactly...they will lose to Alabama in the final game. That is why Auburn is leading the bcs standings now, so that they can jump alabama over boise state as a 1 loss team.

is your theory that the computers have created a conspiracy against Boise?? you know its separate computer systems and the programs were basically written years ago right, each computer ranking reports independently of the others ... sorry I'm just not buying it

Uncle Harv · 10-25-10, 05:07 PM

I hate to say it but I think youre right. TCU might even jump Boise, which would suck bc Boise can beat anyone on a neutral field and I wanna see them play a big time program for the title.

So what is your point? Do you think Boise St deserves to play for the title? Look, I am not discounting them as a good team but they don't earn it on the field. Imagine if they played a real SEC schedule. The last time they went inside an SEC stadium was in 2005 and they were murdered.

How many games would the SEC teams drop if they played in the WAC? Going off your theory Alabama should leave the SEC and join the Sun Belt and they would be undefeated every year.

Not taking anythng away from Boise St. I see they are good and can beat anybody on any given day, but they have no business playing for a title because they don't earn it. When they start playing 4-6 top 25 teams a year with half of those on the road and they are undefeated then we will talk, but until then they ain't kidding anybody.

You do know Boise turned down playing Nebraska?

When was the last time Boise St played in front of 90,000-100,000 fans in a hostile environment?

HoulihansTX · 10-25-10, 05:23 PM

That's the other way around. Nebraska turned down a home/away for 2011-2012.

HoulihansTX · 10-25-10, 05:24 PM

Boise went on the road to play V-Tech. In a game that was practically 80% Va Tech.

Nebraska approached Boise State about a home/away. Boise State will only play for a million dollar payout. Nebraska isnt going to pay anyone a million dollars to come here and play.... so we passed.

Come on brother.. You know better than that...The Georgia Dome holds maybe 70K tops and there is a huge difference between fans at a neutral site as opposed to a on field campus.

Besides who the fk is VT???

I don't see Boise dying to leave that shit conference to go play somewhere else. They are good, but they ain't fighting week in and week out like other teams do.

I would love for Boise to prove it on the field like the big boys have to.

HoulihansTX · 10-25-10, 10:55 PM

That was not a nuetral sight.

Boise flew across country, to play in VT's homestate. Fedex Field is in Virginia, as is VT's school.

DrunkHorseplayer · 10-25-10, 11:29 PM

Boise St. is number 2 in both human polls so you can't claim a human bias and the computers, which have no mind nor bias, have them ranked ahead of Oregon and tied with LSU. Looks like their getting more than a fair shake.

My bad. I was wrong, but there is still a huge difference between playing a true road campus game as opposed to playing at a neutral field.

Houlihans, Can't imagine you being a Boise St sympathizer. Take the "real" top teams in the country and some of the average teams and they would clean up in that confrence. Boise has already made there bowl preparation after 3 weeks into the season.

They just left the WAC to the MWC.. They, like any other team want to be in the best conference possible. If the Pac-Ten invited them they would definitely go there because they would make more money, but the Pac-Ten won't because all Boise St. has is football. They're doing pretty much all they can do and are a much better team than Michigan St.

RJ89 · 10-26-10, 06:06 PM

Also, there is no fix or no conspiracy for the BCS standings, and saying so makes you look like a conspiracy nut.. Auburn only jumped to #1 because of how the computers work. Beating an undefeated LSU was a huge boost to their SOS, which is the main factor of the computers. The odds are stacked against Boise St. since their SOS is so weak.. In order for Boise St. or TCU to make the championship there has to be only one other undefeated team (or 1-loss team from the SEC) out there, and most people knew this before the season started.

The problem with the BCS is not that the standings are rigged, the problem is that there is no fair way to decide who the top 2 teams in the country are.

bcs_is_rigged · 10-27-10, 12:57 AM

The computer program/system exists so that they can manipulate the rankings by manipulating the program. THe program can be manipulated. They don't run the same program that was created years ago as one poster claims. If thats the case Boise should be up there. They beat Oregon last two years....they beat them in Oregon last year. Pretty much both teams have the same players this year! They also beat Oklahoma in feista bowl few years.

This year they played two ranked teams and beat them both. Yes, they are playing in a soft conference but they have played some strong teams as well. I say that you give them a chance. In a neutral field Boise has very good chance of beating any team in the country. Oregon Boise in neutral field would be an awesome game!

bcs_is_rigged · 10-27-10, 01:00 AM

If sec, pact 10, big 12 are so good why are they always rejecting the offer to come play in boise state every year for non conference play. It is always Boise who makes the trip. They went to oregon and beat them this year. THey went to virginia and beat v tech this year...yes its not a true home game for v.tech but 80% of the fans were vtech fans since the game was in virginia.

Cubs4591 · 10-27-10, 01:08 AM

I dont think the BCS rankings are relevant now because they are going to change a lot by the end of the year!! So it doesnt matter if auburn is 1 now.

it does matter. they have auburn number one well ahead of oregon right now so that Alabama can beat them in the season finale and jump boise state as a 1 loss #2 team.

AdamL2424 · 10-27-10, 07:37 AM

They actually beat Oregon in Boise

AdamL2424 · 10-27-10, 07:38 AM

They actually beat Oregon in Boise last year

lyon804 · 10-27-10, 12:04 PM

BOSEY STATES just dont play the competetion week in and week out.LOL. They should not play for the championship. It would be a slap in the face to the rest of the big schools that are out there laying it on the line week after week to put a school in because they beat VT, Oregon St? And this year was a strong shedule for them. Any team that makes it to the BCS Championship would have beat more quality teams this year than BOSEY STATES. Auburn deserves to be ranked ahead of them. Anybody with any brains admits that BOSEY STATES is a fine team and can beat anybody for 1 game, but they have not earned it on the field thru an entire season.

Pasadena69ers · 10-27-10, 12:11 PM

Here's a thought, Why dossnt the BCS fix it so that Boise State does the make the Championship game and gets hammer, by lets say Alabama.... This will put everything to rest once and for all.... If Boise State wins then it becomes a Cinderella story...... either way the NCAA wins.... I don't know why they don't see this.......... IDIOTS

You wait... Alabama will backdoor the championship game this year by running the table. If Alabama beats LSU, and Alabama and the SEC Championship game they deserve it.

Husker36 · 10-27-10, 02:29 PM

The problem is BOISE is not actually a STATE. It's true! I looked it up!

AlphaOmega · 10-27-10, 08:27 PM

Boise St would blow USC out if they played this year ...
