The only way this win was a surprise to you is if you are an SEC fan, Georgia fan or you work for ESPN. We still won't get any respect, but that is ok, eventually we will break through it all. There will always be haters. We could have beat them 50-7 and you'd still have people say that BSU isn't very good and that Georgia just sucks, its the way it is and probably always will be. As long as we keep Chris Petersen and keep improving our program like we have I have no doubt we will one day play for a National Title.

We have beat so many ranked opponents now that it shouldn't be a shock to anyone. The team once again met expectations. That is what I love about Boise State, they don't choke like so many teams out there do(kicking doesn't count, someone is bound to bring that up). All we can do now is win out and see where the chips fall and I can't wait.

Super excited about how this game turned out. Have to hope Georgia does well from here on out. I just wish we could find ourselves in a BCS conference sooner or later. Hopefully we will after the Big 12 folds.

BSU proves time and time again that we can beat anybody. We would have beat Oregon today if we would have played and if given the chance we could beat anyone ranked in the top 5, no doubt in my mind.

Sec fan here..congrats to Broncs! Let me try to explain why SEC and others give you so much grief...in a one game senario Boise is as good as anyone in the nation...I'd put money on them against anyone. The true question, and rightfully so, is how would they do with a schedule like LSU, Alabama, Wisconsin, Texas? Seriously take off the blue shade glasses and compare..if one of these teams played the BSU schedule...they'd be in the BCS EVERY year. It's a fact 80% of the BSU schedule are homecoming teams for these schools...I know it's the conference, I know there's nothing you can do about it...but this does take away from what you do..even a Georgia victory means little when they are the 3rd to 4th best team in the SEC East...7th or 8th best in SEC. For the folks who point to Utah St Auburn...for record auburn graduated 24 Seniors, had 30 players play in their first college game Saturday...youngest team in the nation according to espn. Maybe one day we'll have a playoff and BSU will have a real chance to show that they are more than a one game team when face the "big boys"...for now keep pulling the "upsets" ...closet bronco fan

Any way we know that we don't play in the SEC and neither does 90% of the nation. And this is what the problem is with college football, who the best team is, is all based on perception. Even if they come up with a plus one that would give a team like us a greater shot at the big game. Until something is done, it will be too hard to figure out who the true National Champ should be. Also if we played in the SEC, we would have SEC money and SEC recruits and with our coaches we have, no doubt in my mind we couldn't rock things there too.

Lol, yes it was a compliment...although of sorts, but also a reminder that you have to play the better teams week in week out to truly be considered among the elite. Not your fault..location, conference, etc keep BSU from being able to do so. Until Then keep pulling ofF upsets and pissing off the nation lol.
