CAN'T HELP MYSELF!

See...this is what irritates me.....Everyone saying it's not Boise's fault for their schedule.

That's just plane crap!   It is their fault!

Their A.D. is the one who is in charge of putting together their schedule!...Yes, they play in a conference and are tied to a conference schedule, but no one held a gun to the A.D.'s head and forced him to schedule this year's out of conference foes Va Tech., Wyoming, Oregon St., and Toledo.

1st, the Va Tech game was played at a "neutral" site, not in Blacksburg. 2nd, Oregon St. and Toledo were HOME games. Way to go on a limb and schedule an away game at Wyoming!!!!!

Yes, they usually schedule 3 years ahead, but there's no way they couldn't get a game at Oklahoma, FSU, Ohio ST., etc... instead of going to Wyoming!   They went to Wyoming without requiring a "Home and Home" series so why not play that game at a better school?

Plus, their conference schedule is their fault too! If they want to prove themselves then move to a better conference! Don't stay in the WAC and then complain you're a prisoner of the conference. Move to at least the Mountain West if not the Pac-10.

It's all their fault!

So that other on this blog can relate to what I'm saying let's look locally. ....Sussex Central Football a few years ago made a conscience effort to become a "big boy". Like him or not, when John Wells took over as head coach he, along with the other coaches and A.D.s changed the way SC Football had been scheduling for years.  The way to the state playoffs and become a better program was through strengthening the schedule.

When I was a sophomore football player at SC we went 7-3 but cam no where even sniffing the state playoffs.  Again, as a Senior we went 7-3. Again, no thought of even making the playoffs.  Why, because for years SC scheduled Div II Laurel, Delmar, Lake Forest, Woodbridge, etc...   Now, SC plays the likes of St Marks, Christiana, Sallies, Caravel, etc....   Why? Because Div 1 teams get you more points toward making the playoffs.   They could continue to play the likes of Woodbridge, go undefeated. Have heavy winning records every year and bitch about being left out. 

Boise, call SC and learn how to schedule!
