So, here we go again another possible job lurking in the shadows about to come and scoop up Chris Petersen. Boise State fans have heard it a million times, no way Chris Petersen would ever turn down this school, this pay jump, this competition increase, this opportunity. Only to sit back knowing that no way Chris Petersen would ever take the job being thrown at him. However, if the Oregon job does come calling expect a different level of anxiety from the fan-base. I know I personally have always looked at Oregon as the biggest threat to steal Coach Pete. They are after all in many ways like Boise State with just a ton more financial backing. Oregon is Nike University; the football program has a unlimited bank account funded by Phil Knight. Whatever the coaches need, the coaches get. Continue Reading

Boise State – Ready to dance
The one thing I hear from the Boise State fan base is “it’s not fair”! It’s not fair that a team from the WAC/MWC can’t play in the national title game. Bronco Nation thinks Boise State IS ready to dance. The national title game for an undefeated team from a non AQ conference is a mathematical impossibility. The insiders think that an invite to the Junior Prom (BCS – Sugar/Rose/Fiesta/Orange) should be enough and Boise State should be grateful. As to the Senior Ball (national title game), that is reserved for those with AQ status.
It’s time to say to the world of College Football – Get ready to dance! Boise State will be there and quite possibly sooner rather than later. In a few days all of the speculation on the future of Boise State and the Big East Conference. An acceptance announcement is expected on Friday. Most likely it will be a six team unison announcement as to the future of the Big East’s re-birth as viable conference to be reckoned with.
