I agree with this tweet.

Boise State is getting that money and should be happy with that. If I was a Bronco fan though. that division blows

No, going 12-0 vs the mwc and getting to a bcs-now called access - bowl like they've done all along.

Don't sell that division short! It could be brutal. Boise good to great, Sand Diego State good to very good, us ok, Houston ok to very good, Temple ok to very good, Memphis bad.

You know the point I'm trying to get across.

Yes I am aware that they went bcs ing as members of the WAC.

12-0 boise in mwc (since that is where they would've been without going to big east) with wins over uga or va tech

Vs

12-0 in big East West wins over whomever

Take away the (hoped for) addl $..

Same or better?

The West:
Boise State, Houston, Memphis, San Diego State, SMU and Temple.

How is Boise better off other than a little more $$? - they better hope that Mike comes through, otherwise the move is a waste of time.

They had to put Temple in the west because putting Louisville in the west would make the eastern division the weak one. This looks to be about setting up Boise vs Louisville in the title game and making Temple pay their dues with travel

Way wrong. All but one team in the east is a former BCS team. West has only Boise which has been weakened. Rutger or Cincinnati would be a force in the west as well maybe even USF and UConn as well since SDSU beat Boise. East would have been the stronger division even without Louisville. Western division sucks.

The East will have Central Florida, South Florida, Connecticut, Louisville, Cincinnati and Rutgers.

How is UCF, USF, Cinnci and Rutgers weak? Probably stronger than our division...

I think you guys are overrating the current Big East schools. They may have been "BCS" in name/privilege, but with a few exceptions in recent years, hardly deserving. Don't lump everyone in the western division with SMU. Boise can beat anyone in the Big East and SDSU is competitive. Houston is one year removed from having been a strong "non-BCS" team. I think we may surprise some people as to how well the western division will compete with those eastern schools

Big Least a joke.
We'd have been better off winning CUSA 2-3 times then getting our Big 12 invite.
('course when you have a coach who's only interested in winning 7 and packing his Crocs and jocks for Waikiki, that's sorta tough.)

Regional. It's where it's at.
