Boise State's future non-conference football schedules

There has been much confusion over the Broncos' future non-conference schedules.

Here they are (dates tentative). In even years, the Broncos can schedule four non-conference games. In odd years (or years when the Broncos travel to Hawaii), they can schedule up to five non-conference games.

2010

vs. Toledo (Sept. 11)

at Wyoming (Sept. 18)

vs. Oregon State (Sept. 25)

2011

vs. Wyoming (Sept. 10)

at Toledo (Sept. 17)

vs. Tulsa (Sept. 24)

vs. Utah

2012

at Utah

vs. Bowling Green (Aug. 30) or other MAC

at Oregon State

vs. BYU (Sept. 22)

2013

vs. Utah

at BYU (Sept. 7)

2014

vs. BYU (Sept. 6)

2015

at BYU (Sept. 12)

Tack on another decent BCS opponent in 2010...

... and I'll be way more excited for that season than this upcoming one. Say what you want about them, but Oregon State is a solid BCS opponent. When they have their stuff together, they can take on anyone.

I'd love to see Michigan scheduled for 2010. People will give BSU crap for scheduling the Wolverines given they've had a rough couple of years... but I think by next year Rich Rodriguez will have that program humming when he starts bringing in recruits that fit his schemes. Besides, I'd love a change to see a game at The Big House!

MICHIGAN!!!

Michigan

All time record: 872-294-36 (.740) most all time wins and highest win percentage (FYI--you have a long way to go before you eclipse or even near this sort of record, oh yeah, and a few hundred MAJOR victories...
Bowl record: 19-20
Conference championships 42
National Championships 11
heisman winners 3
Consensus all-americans 150

Accolades: Most undefeated seasons (25); most winning seasons (110); the ONLY division 1A team with an all-time winning record against EVERY division 1A conference.

You are right to suggest scheduling Michigan--they would be a great opponent--I would love to see that game in Ann Arbor! They are also 1-5 in their last five bowl games..the difference..they played; Florida, USC, Nebraska, Texas, and USC (2). They will win again and they will continue to make history. Suggesting they are crap certifies those fans as either crackheads or members of the horse-blinded opinionated fanatics-only bronco nation...lol. GO BLUE!!! Beat Michigan and you make history (App State)...beat BSU and, well, who cares...lol.

Dear Gene,

Please schedule a non-conference team that has had a winning record this past decade or is not in a weaker conference than the WAC. Were not going to get respect playing Toledo, Wyoming, Tulsa, Bowling Green, etc. If we want to get in a better conference we have to prove we can play with the big dogs. Not just in bowl games. We need to get over the Mid Major hump and go to the next level. Scheduling Pee wee teams isn't getting us there anytime soon.

Signing off,

Concerned BSU Fan

Not all of our non-conference opponents are scrubs

Tulsa had a winning season last year (11-3). Bowling Green (6-6) isn't a bad team, either. I will agree that playing Wyoming and Toledo are beneath us, though.

2012

2012 looks like it's gonna be legit (assuming OSU, BYU & Utes remain contenders). Kellen Moore will be a senior that year too, right?

2012

I can't believe the Idaho fans haven't jumped on the band wagon about the BSU math skills . If Kellen was a Freshman in 08 aSO-09 JR.10 SR.11 by 2012 he will be trying to make it as a backup in the Canadian Foodball League.
But that is a good schedule, BSU is trying, and at least one or two of those teams will be contenders.

In 2012 he will be wrapping up his graduate thesis, silly.

It's a FIVE year school last time I heard. It escapes me how the 'redshirt' thing works right now but I just WOKE UP...

Non-Conference Scedule

If I'm not mistaken Washingnton is not in our conf. and two days ago I saw somewhere that they were on the schedule for either 2010 or 2011....Why can't we get this straight?

spelling?

Before you all ream me, I am aware I forgot the "h" in schedule...typing too fast. I apologize.

Scheduling

Stephano1950 Sports_king_21 Sportsking, i can see you don't have any experience in the creampuffs. You do know we're a mid-major right? All teams have creampuffs. Better do some research on creampuffs. You're looking@ our schedule and you're are still not satisfied? Dude you need to go through all the teams and you'll see their weak links. I'm not going to belabour the point,but you need to do some serious research on scheduling.No matter who you play,there will always be teams that say you played no one. San Jose plays USC this year. Do you think they'll get any respect for getting pummeled? You take a look@ San Jose's schedule this year and you'll have to laugh. This is a game of $$$$$. San Jose will get 7 figures for a game like this. Didn't you read the Idaho Statesman this morning?

That is the difference

That is the difference between the WAC and real conferences. No one cares or will ever care about San Jose State, just like no one cares about Appalacian State (you know who they are right) or for that matter Boise State.

Start playing top non conference opponents consistently every year and winning those games as well as your conference and make a conference switch. Then maybe the college football world will care.

Until you wake up to what they call reality, no one will give a blue smurf buffalo chip about the bronco billies.

Money honey

Get the money Gene. If memory seves me right Tenn thought Wy was beneath them but got their butts kicked.

Perhaps Orange in a uniform bugs them.

Gene needs to make the

Gene needs to make the Oregon State game an annual event. I love playing those guys and their fans are pretty cool as well. It has always been a great match-up. They aren't the sissies from Eugene, just good football people.

BYU Comparison

Just for comparison's sake.... here is BYU's current non-conference schedule through 2015. Interestingly, the current soft teams on the schedule are from BSU's conference (though there is, of course, always the chance of a FCS or lower FBS team to join the mix in future years).

2010

9-4 Washington
9-18 @ Florida State
9-25 Nevada
TBA @ Utah State

2011

TBA @ Washington
TBA Arizona State
TBA Utah State

2012

9-8 Hawai'i
9-22 @ Boise State
TBA Washington
TBA Utah State

2013

9-7 Boise State
9-14 @ Hawai'i

2014

9-6 @ Boise State

2015

I don't really care about 2015 unless they parole Manson...

BSU's reputation

BSU is rapidly gaining a national reputation for two things: (1) playing in a weak conference and avoiding legit non-conf. opponents; (2) being a "cute" team that loses bowl games.

So? Do you have other things to play back if I pull your string?

BSU See and Say.

foreignoregonian/ Kellen Moore

Stephano1950 Hey man, Kellen Moore is working on his Master's degree and has no intentions of playing in the NFL. Before you open your Pie-hole,use some common sense because not every member of Boise State wants to play in the NFL. You never cease to amaze me with your rather boring posts that make no sense. 1 thing i know is Oregon Duck's are going to get a good butt-kicken on the BLUE_TURF. So go ahead and be sarcastic,but you and i really know that Masoli is no Tim Tebow. The last time i looked @ Tebow stats,he was 6'4' 237lbs and little Mazolihole is 5'11" 213. Little mini masoli is going to take some huge hits with a spread Offense that has gone through 6-Q.B.s since Chip kelly has gone from Offensive Coordinator to Head Coach this year for the Duck's. Is it true that Chip kelly came from New Hampshire where he was an FCS or Div-AA coach. He's going to continue to go through Q.Bs with the spread Offense.By Sept3rd Boise State will take care of your spread that injures so many Q.Bs in his short tenure as Offenssive Coordinator. Good luck on the BLUE-turf because you'll find out just as Oregon State that our stadium is setup to where it seems like the fans are hovering right over you. Wyoming found that out about 4 years ago when their Q.B. couldn't even scream loud enough to his teamates to hear his play calls.Kellen Moore didn't have any problems in Autsen that supposedly has one of the loudest crowds in the NCAA. Boise State quieted the 58,900 fans in Oregon.If i remember right, they began booing the Oregon Duck's.

Did I ever imply or claim to be his agent!

Dude. See a doctor for whatever. Really, Vinnie.

I can almost see the spit on

I can almost see the spit on your monitor screen. Wake up to what they call reality. Moore couldn't play in the League. He's a WAC QB. The talent level just isn't there. I mean, sure he put up some nice numbers last season, but he could never play in a real conference, say the PAC 10 for instance. He is slow, has limited arm strength and doesn't look off the db's. And if it were not for the fact that the Ducks had to play 3rd, 4th and 5th string last year, he would be 0-1 vs, the Pac.

As luck would have it he is 1-0, soon to be 1-1 with utter embarassment on the horizon, what with another WAC bowl to lose, as well as the Va. Tech game in '10.

Reality is a tough thing to handle. Especially when clouded by fake blue grass and the aroma of manure.

Dude, can't you come up with any original arguments?

You keep regurgitating the same flat statements:

"And if it were not for the fact that the Ducks had to play 3rd, 4th and 5th string last year, he would be 0-1 vs, the Pac."

Yep! Repeat! Rinse!

Seriously, it's irritating to need to slap this argument all the time. But, if I must...

Every conference has their weaklings. Heck, the Pac-10 has UCLA, Washington, Washington State, Stanford, Arizona, Arizona State.

As far as the Oregon game last year, Oregon's QB situation was an afterthought. The big hype with Oregon was their "great" defense and "unstoppable" running game. Honestly, the QB never got mentioned in the pre-game since Oregon was supposed to run all over Boise State and shut down their high-scoring Offense. Yet, a red-shirt FRESHMAN dismantled that "great" secondary for over 300 passing yards. True, the Oregon running backs totaled almost 200 yds and a pair of scores, but that is hardly "unstoppable".

The QB for the Ducks was like being a running back being Colt Brennan. Sure, you are in the game, but does anyone really notice unless you caught the ball?

Boise State has 3 things going for them this year:

#1 Home field advantage in a tough place
#2 The honor of beating Oregon last season IN EUGENE!
#3 A team that returns most of its players from last year.

I honestly dont think Oregon's offense is good enough against Boise State's defense.

For future reference!

Diabetics don't have a lot of options for filling a pie-hole. There are sugar-free chocolate, butterscotch and PISTACHIO pudding, though!
