Perhaps if BSU would have the support of a team like Ohio State or Iowa, they would be headed to a BCS game.
As is, they would probably fare better if they dropped to the FCS level.
They right their own living will and testiment by belonging to a subpar conference that gets no respect east of Wall Drug.

I don't know how long you've been around but Bowls are about money. tOSU will get TV ratings and pack any stadium they are invited to. They'd fill up Aloha Stadium if need be.
It's a no-brainer that they are the at-large bid.
They travel as well as any in the country.
Another example: If ND would have beaten 'Cuse, there was a strong possibility they could have been invited to the Cotton Bowl, over a much better team such as Ole Miss. Why not, if i ran the Cotton I'd tell hotels to raise their rates if ND fans were coming to town more than if Ole Miss fans were, over charge 5% moref or everything, you'd get it.
ND pulls more ratings than an Ole Miss would and they blow.
Bowls have nothing to do with record or ranking.
alot of people do not get this.
Thats because the games don't mean anything. In Postseasons in other sports, you win and advance. Bowl season is nothing more then a showcase for recruiting. Bowl season is the most overrated thing in sports next to " Dan Patrick radio show " and the medias use of the word " Unbelievable "
