I have nothing against Boise State, but the reason they can’t move up is they play a bunch of little teams. They are only playing 1 team in the top ten this season.
Sorry but you can’t win the rankings by playing the Little Sisters of the Poor every weekend.
Nobody wants to put Boise State on their schedule.

RUSTON, La. – Is it cowardice or collusion?
Boise State athletic director Gene Bleymaier is all but begging for a major opponent – any major opponent – to play his Broncos, particularly in 2011. He can hardly get his calls returned. Not by the SEC. Not by the Big Ten. Not by anyone.
Bleymaier is making a nearly unheard of offer in college football scheduling – Boise will bring its popular, high-profile, top-10 team to any stadium in any town to play any big name team in America in 2011. And they don’t have to return the date in Idaho.
So far, no one has bit.
The school acknowledges it needs to play tougher teams. Yet how can they beat quality opponents if quality opponents won’t play them?
Yeah. You’re right, of course. But give me men anyday, and I’ll show you heart. I just always see them as having heart.
Then again, I grew up on and still have a soft spot for the now non-existent Brownies.
