Yeah but you're forgetting that these big schools play fluff teams earlier in the year to run up the score, to get the rankings and the points in the BCS.

But if you look at Boise State's schedule from the perspective of a Big Ten, SEC, or Pac-10 team, those opponents are pretty much all "fluff."

what?

They play 2 fluff teams on average so they can win their homecoming game and 1 extra. Playing West Texas College for the Blind doesn't add to the BCS numbers.
