Boise's Schedule


 I went to Rivals.com and looked at their preseason rankings and thought about the toughness of Bama's schedule and all the flack that Boise State has been getting about the WAC schedule. So I decided to compare them...and I think you know what the results will be.

 

Bama -                                                                    Boise State -

1. San Jose State - #119                                    1. Virginia Tech - #9

2. Penn State - #19                                              2. Wyoming - #71

3. Duke - #93                                                        3. Oregon State - #22

4. Arkansas - #18                                                4. NM State - #113

5. Florida - #6                                                       5. Toledo - #98

6. South Carolina - #31                                      6. San Jose State - #119

7. Ole Miss - #44                                                 7. Louisiana Tech - #101

8. Tennessee - #49                                            8. Hawaii - #86

9. LSU - #15                                                         9. Idaho - #78

10. Mississippi State - #61                               10. Fresno State - #66

11. Georgia State - NR                                       11. Nevada - #65

12. Auburn - #39                                                  12. Utah State - #103

So let's say to be fair we drop the highest and lowest ranked teams from each schedule (Bama - UF & GA State, Boise - VT and San Jose).  The result for Boise is almost 4 teams in the triple digit rankings and the only quality team being Oregon State at #22. Now I see why Boise wins all of their bowl games. With a schedule like that they hardly break a sweat while all other BCS conferences are playing better quality opponents almost every week. Plus an extra tough game for those conferences with title games. What do ya'll think? Would even a two loss Alabama (or SEC team) get your vote over an undefeated Boise team for a spot in the NC game? What if Bama lost one game to one of the following: UF, Arky, PSU or LSU and it was Bama vs. Boise for the second spot?
