Well EXCUSE me for making an inaccurate statement…let me rephrase…it SEEMS as if they lose every year to a mediocre team after losing to Nevada last year after all the hype they got up until that point.
True. The thing about BSU is you'll just never know unless they get into a better conference and who's to say the Big East is that much of a step up. Next year they will be just so-so like TCU and Utah. They seriously lose EVERYBODY worth mentioning.
But, I still think BSU wins by two touchdowns. Based on the fact that they're at home, TCU is down, and leaving emotion out of it.
I mostly don't want BSU to go to the NC because of their weak schedule but a very small part of me kind of does just so they'll get dominated by LSU in the title game (like USC dominated OU in the title game back in '04) and not be in the NC discussion for a long time. I want Mathieu to score 3 TDs (2 on INTs and 1 on a return) and send Kellen Moore and Boise State in a tailspin akin to what Dirk Nowitzki almost single-handedly did to the Lakers in the NBA playoffs last year.
Utah was a blocked fg away from ot with USC and then lost their starting qb for the season so judging them based off this year is a little premature. Kyle Wittingham is a very good coach, and playing in the snow and altitude in November will be a tough out for any Pac12 team.(They won their last two games also i believe)
Kellen Moore has the most wins by a qb in ncaa history, and smoked us twice. Chris Peterson is a top 3 college coach imho, that team is always prepared for the big game and they always have lesser talent. Tcu will give them a game, but the blue field is tough place to win and Moore doesn't make mistakes so I'd guess Boise wins. I think they've earned their shot if them and Lsu are the only two undefeated teams this year based on their last four seasons of success. Nobody gave Utah a chance vs Bama in Nola and they kicked their asses back to Tuscaloosa.
I think THIS year BSU is really good. Not great, but very, very solid. They made quick work of Georgia - who is average, but no sissy either. However, this is their year. 18 starting seniors and Moore leaving is going to really be tough to overcome next year.

I agree. This BSU team isn't what they have been recently; next year will be worse.
