They gotta give Boise extra love since VT lost to James Madison.

It really is, in the grand scheme of things.

Though, I still don't think Boise has a shot at going to the BCSNC if they run the table

I'm not sold on Arky yet and ESPN loves to overhype whatever game they have gameday at. For some reason they really want to promote Boise into the title game. I would argue that is Va tech didnt have opening game jitters to start with they would have beaten Boise.

I'm gonna be more interested in Bama vs. Arkansas BTW.

Because they can't cover Bama every weekend. Plus they want to hit Boise before it gets freezing cold (and before Boise drops a game)

You could, but your argument would suck cock.

Ark would beat Boise right now on a neutral field. Yes I said it.

Scott Van Pelt was talkin bout it wednesday. Everyone
Knows bama at arky is a bigger game but they were at bama penn st two weeks ago and will be at bama - florida next weekend. Couldnt go to bama games 3 out of 4 weeks. Im still not sure why they went to bama penn st. over a competitive game

It's because gameday is going to Tuscaloosa next weekend for Florida vs Alabama, people. Also, if they were there in Arkansas this weekend and Tuscaloosa next you people would be complaining that they love Alabama too much.

This, plus they'll likely be at the LSU-Bama game and they don't wanna be going to too many CBS games. They always overhype their Gameday game and the Boise game was the Gameday choice because of the ABC connection.

They've already been to an LSU game. I like when gameday goes different places, not that I will watch it either way

Ratings Wise ark/georgia at 11/12 had better ratings than auburns game last week which was primetime and where gameday was.

I agree. My friends who are Big10 fans don't give a shite about Bama/Arky. I think a lot of "lesser" college football fans don't even realize Arkansas is top10 right now
