BSU's recent record against teams finishing the college season in the top 10 = 4 - 1. Plus, for the last three seasons, BSU has sent every big school in the nation a challenge to play anytime anywhere and none will accept. BSU just lost the #3 ranking while playing in cruize control and beating a team 59-0; and they lost that ranking to a team they not only beat last year in Oregon, but also held to zero first downs in the first half of that game. With the exception of one player, BSU is fielding the same team as the one that went undefeated last year and won the Fiesta Bowl, only we're one year bigger, better, and with a more mature understanding of the game.
If people want BSU to go away, maybe someone ought to step up and play them.
Alabama's athletic director, Mal Moore, was asked two weeks ago if Boise State has ever contacted Alabama in order to try and schedule a game and Moore said that Boise has not. Boise has to do more than issue a "challenge" to big name BCS schools. They have to actually get on the phone and call the schools directly, which apparently they aren't doing.United Center (Chicago): 8/24/09

I've read several major college football articles that vouch for what I am saying. Big time journalists reporting the same thing, so clearly somebody isn't being truthful. Still, every team knows where to find us. Either someone play us, or enough of the we're not good enough attitude.
For the record, I think Bama would eat our lunch. That being said, there is only one way to find out. We still need a playoff system.Idaho's Premier Outdoor Writer

He was just talking tough. I think we all know they don't really have phones in Alabama. Sexy cousins? Sure. Phones? Eh, not so much.Idaho's Premier Outdoor Writer

Boise State is who should make the calls since they're the ones screaming about their non-conference scheduling. It's not Alabama's responsibility (nor any other school's responsibility) to initiate any contact with Boise. Boise needs to put their money where their mouth is and quit paying lip service to this farce.
For the record, I like Boise and their head coach, but they need to quit their petty whining.United Center (Chicago): 8/24/09

BSU's atheltic director needs to pick up the phone and start calling schools he would like to play. I don't know about other programs, but Ohio State schedules 3-4 years out.
I've heard the challange thing from BSU as well. I'm sure they have issued it, but i'm not so sure they have tried to schedule. Come to think of it, i know OSU is paying colorado 1.4M to come get thier asses kicked next year at the shoe. I'd prefer a BSU ass kicking. Make it happen Ohio.
and bring on a playoff system.81 is now off the air0 -

Alabama, just last week, announced that they will play Michigan in Dallas to open the 2012 season. Bama has been scheduling these neutral site games against quality opponents in order to expand the exposure of the program to top recruits and to make some serious coin at these venues. Boise could try to set up a neutral field game on the West Coast against a big name school if they can't convince anyone to travel to the blue turf for a game. The game against Va Tech in Landover back on Labor Day was a good start.United Center (Chicago): 8/24/09

I will try and find it, but I read an article on it a while back. Of course one of the major issues was money. Teams did not want to do home and home with Boise, which is what I think they were looking for, since it would not help the major confernece team where it counts most, at the bank. A lot of big name programs will do the home and home with established teams, Like tOSU mentioned above with Miami, Michigan with Notre Dame etc, since it works out for both teams financialy. Then they bring in the cupcakes since they can pay them a couple hundred thousand or so to travel and lose, but stillmake a lot of money on the game. Boise starting with nuetral site wins is a good step. And naturally, a playoff would help fix this as well....got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul...0

i hope Bama kicks the shit out of michigan.
maybe all schools should become independant. than the ncaa could randomly select 10 games for each program to play. then top 16 teams play a tourney for the national title. for those that don't make the tourney, they get to play 2 more games agaist predetermened opponents. than after those two games, they can play a bowl game agaist the 14 teams that get knocked out of the title tourney.

That's the biggest issue for Boise. Non-conference games against Va Tech and Oregon State are pretty good, but it's the other eleven games on their regular season schedule that hurt their standing. Boise is moving to the Mountain West, but it just so happens that Utah and BYU are leaving the MWC, so Boise might as well have stayed in the WAC. Until Boise gets into a better league, they'll continue to have problems with their ability to get chosen for the BCS title game.United Center (Chicago): 8/24/09
