OK, I'm offended by that. My team, Utah State, plays in the same conference as Boise State. Granted, the WAC isn't that great and USU has sucked for years, but after Boise, most of the league is competitive with each other.

Now, having said that, Boise State will be joining the Mountain West next year, but both Utah and BYU are leaving the MWC, so other than TCU, Boise still won't have any real competition.

FYI, Boise gets the attention is does because it wasn't that long ago it was a JUCO, then a member of the Big Sky (was Division II, now FCS conference). Boise's success in major bowl games shows it's a great program.
