Boise state qb looks like he can make a throw. He’s going to have to make room for Jeanty because Penn st is beyond selling out.

Yeah, no thanks. I'll stick with my original assessment - that they look like a team that has been given unwarranted acclaim for losing to Oregon week 1 of the season and doing nothing else the rest of the year, just like we've been saying for the last month plus... AND THEY DO NOT BELONG IN THIS GAME.

Given so many had them above the top Big 12 schools, I hope they lose by 50 in this game

**** the ACC and G5

Don't like Penn St, but hope they win by 100 just to prove that winning no quality games shouldn't warrant a playoff spot.
Okay, yes, they played weaker opponents, but historically Boise St winning this game would be a big statement for lesser resourced universities.

The problem with that is now unfortunately that makes them competition for the Big 12 due to the P-2.

that being said, I am still cheering against PSU.

So you prefer G5 teams with better records in the playoffs than Power 4 schools like ISU with similar records (maybe less one win), but more difficult schedules to make it?

Unless you looked at their schedule, I’d bet the average fan couldn’t name 1/4 of the teams Boise State played.
Possibly, but we're still talking about relatively significant football programs when you look at all of the college football programs nationwide.
