They beat Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl when they weren't given much of a chance.
They played TCU in a 17-16 dogfight last year.

They weren't supposed to be Oklahoma in 2007. We know how that one ended. As previously noted they stayed within a point of TCU a year ago so why not "love them" when they're getting more than a touchdown?

What they did against Oklahoma has no bearing on this game.

No bearing. Really? How do you figure? Same coach, same program, same venue as the huge upset. You don't think this current Boise State team or for that matter future teams haven't/won't be affected by that game?
How do you explain the Poinsettia Bowl? Basically all the same players just an added year of experience. There's too many guys drinking the TCU "Kool Aid". Did you have a swig?

One team has a defense and the other one does not.
TCU has beat 6 teams this year that has already won their bowl game.

While that is true------I think experience playing in this type of bowl game is worth some value. Boise is a confident bunch, and I think that carries some weight....

I'm on TCU, but Boise looks tough to contain right now. Boise ML looks to have had some good value. We will see, go Frogs!

1)The spread was way too high for two legitimate teams.
2)Lang had a "100 dimer" on TCU and guaranteed they would win by at least 21. Even if I didn't think Boise State was any good, that would've been enough for me.

They could play 16 quarters and TCU will lose
They can hardly walk after shooting themselves in the foot so many times.
Good pick Boise backers
