3, 4, and 5 are a joke. Schedule some real competition. Boise needs to put Alabama or Ohio State on its schedule. Smurf turfers are delusional.

TCU is legit IMO. They have spanked everybody, including Baylor at Waco.
Baylor may not be a top ranked team, but they are good.
TCU smashed Air Force too. And Air Force came within two points of beating Oklahoma in Norman.
Also, TCU will play Utah and have a chance to smoke them too.
At least TCU has a good argument for their spot.

You are full of crap.

By the end of the year, Boise will have beaten 4, possibly 5, ranked teams, including a top ten, BCS conference team in Virginia Tech - on the road. They have beaten Oregon the last two years (who were propped as a championship contender both times - though they don’t have to face Boise this year and have their hopes destroyed again), and are missing one starter from the team that won a BCS bowl last year.

Boise State has tried to get the BCS Conference teams to schedule them, which the BCS chiefs admitted before Congress. They don’t want to schedule Boise because a loss disproportionately hurts them in the BCS computers as opposed to a victory, which doesn’t help much. They’d rather schedule an inferior Notre Dame team because of the fixed computer “push.” It is they who lack the courage, not Boise State, who also asked to join a BCS conference when realignment was being discussed. They were dismissed because of “regional” issues (read: TV market).

Boise’s conference is a top five conference now, anyway, so it is really a weak herring.

You can bark all you want, but it is obvious you are afraid Boise will embarrass your BCS “champion.” I don’t blame you for being petrified, though, as they keep besting every big conference team they face.
