Utah beat Alabama less than 2 years ago in a BCS bowl. Boise has won 2 BCS Bowls. I understand the SEC is a good conference, but if you suffer a blemish you should not be allowed to hop over a team that started the season #3 in the country and didnt lose.

Auburn might be good enough to get the job done, but I just see them losing either to Alabama or the SEC title game.

Utah has won 2 BCS bowls, too. So have Wisconsin and West Virginia. What does that have to do with their 2010 teams?

If you break down the schedule Boise has you will see that they should not be ranked that high. I will do the honor of showing you why.

Game 1: Virginia Tech. A big win at the time that was only spoiled within a week. VT falls to a small time school named James Madison.

Game 2: Wyoming. A team that barely beat Southern Utah and has a record of 2-7. Granted they have had a decent schedule but still.

Game 3: Oregon State. A team that lost to Washington in double overtime. However Washington just got blasted by Stanford tonight. So is OSU really that good? No is the answer.

Game 4: New Mexico State. Granted Boise easily beat NMSU but they should have. Seeing as NMSU is 1-7. Oh by the way NMSU's only win is over New Mexico who has not won a game this whole year. The game was close winding up to be 16-14 in favor of NMSU.

Game 5: Toledo. Lost to Wyoming. Enough said.

Game 6: San Jose State. Has won two games this season. Southern Utah and New Mexico State. Oh wait did I mention that SJS lost to UC Davis a D-1AA school. My bad.

Game 7: Louisiana Tech. LA Tech has a record of 3-5. One of those wins being against Grambling State.

The rest of the year Boise gets a cake walk.

Hawaii: Actually a team that gets up for big games but is not really that good when it comes down to it.

Fresno State: Got taken care of by a really bad Ole Miss team that has just started to pick up. They also got done nasty by Hawaii.

Nevada: A team that is starting to look better. But suffered a loss to Hawaii.

Utah State: Is 2-5 about to be 2-6 because Nevada is working them right now. Oh by the way did I say that USU got murdered by San Diego State?

Boise State is a good team I will admit. Don't take this post in the wrong way and think that I am trying to bash you, because I am not. I am simply saying that year in and year out Boise hears about they are not "good enough" to get into the BCSNCG. Well then why don't they schedule an SEC team and prove themselves.

I can see you don't watch much SEC football to think this could actually happen.
