Ok...I'm not Super College Football Fan Guy...but aren't teams scared of Boise St? As in, they won't schedule them?

Or is that a myth?

Responses:

A lot of it has to do with money - Boise wants to be paid like a top-25 team if they visit, and no one really wants to play them in Boise - crash davis Oct 11, 12:05 4
- A 33K capacity stadium doesn't help either. That automatically cuts almost $2M off the top. And how do they get way that blue turf? It is annoying - not2fast Oct 11, 12:11 3
  - Imagine playing on this -- (link) - Reagen Oct 11, 12:15 [youtube]
  - they've unveiled a huge expansion plan to be done in stages, but they don't know where the cash for stadium expansion will come from - crash davis Oct 11, 12:13 1
    - Yup. Never change it. -- nm - Spawn Oct 11, 12:14
Their ascension has been pretty quick. - Strongbad Oct 11, 12:02 3
- and ultimately they will descend again, unless they find a crapload of money hiding somewhere - crash davis Oct 11, 12:08 2
  - They should remain good as long as you hang on to your coach. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 11, 12:11 1
    - thats it though, right now they are straining their budget - not because of Peterson but trying to keep his staff together -- nm - crash davis Oct 11, 12:12
All college teams are scared of all other college teams. They don't schedule much more difficult competition than they feel like they have to. - TFox Oct 11, 11:59 3
- Which begs the question...how does Boise ever become a big time program when none of the big boys will pull up their skirt and give them a a game? - Jim Oct 11, 12:01 2
  - They could earn their way, if we had a playoff system. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 11, 12:03
  - That's the idea. -- nm - Every other conference Oct 11, 12:02
They will not go *there* to play them, at least. - Spawn Oct 11, 11:58
