A win at TCU is definately better than any Boise W, but easy on the praise for ND, they still blow.
I can see the BCS having a nightmare on their hands with the only undefeated teams left come December being Boise and Utah/TCU. Im not sure that the other conferences would let the national champion be one of those 3 teams.
The Nevada loss was a killer as was Va Tech JMU loss.
I still believe that noone can know for sure who the best team in the country is without a playoff type system. Boise has beaten every team that was put on a field with them. Alot of BCS schools/fans want to minimize Boise, but none want to go head to head with them.
Utah showed us a couple years ago that the SEC isnt faster than the rest of the country because they were the faster team when they played Bama.
The same people that want to question Boise's schedule will have no problem with Mich State in the title game when Mich State plays: Western Michigan, Florida Atlantic, Northern Colorado, Illinois, Northwestern, Minnesota and Purdue. If you add ND, Mich, Wisc and Iowa is that a tougher schedule than Boise plays, a bunch of cupcakes added to Va Tech, Oreg St, Nevada, Fresno. You can make a case for each team having the tougher schedule.
Im not a huge Boise fan, but would like to see them get a fair shot. If they are not in the title game, then put them up against the SEC Champ or at least #3 or #4 team so we can get an idea how good or bad they really are. Dont put them against another non BCS school or the weaker BCS schools like the Big East or ACC. The BSC hierarchy can put all this Boise talk to rest if they put them against one of the premier programs. Oh wait, they tried that already with Oklahoma.
