Not only that, scheduling takes place years in advance. How do you know who is going to be good in 2010.

It is very hard for Boise State to schedule BCS schools because of money...simply money. They don't offer home and home series. They want the revenue from extra home games on their OOC schedules. Basically, they'd have to be willing to travel during this period.

Its an extremely hard spot for teams like Boise St and i dont know if there is a solution...Those type teams in basketball or football are not gonna get a home and home with a major player. In football its even tougher, give you an example i live in Northern KY, from my porch i look down at downtown Cincy (less than a mile from DT cincy). UC gets a two game series with O St, first year they at Paul Brown Stadium (this is OSU title year) and almost get beat by UC. I was at the game and 80% of the people in that stadium were OSU fans and that was considered as UC home game. Boise St and Utah and those teams that have great seasons will be judged on their schedule and for those teams to play a power it will be on the road...im not sure there is an answer...except for a playoff and that dont look promising

speaking of Gator Bait -- did anyone ever see the movie "Gator Bait II?"

I have it on VHS, it's pretty awesome. It's about a cajun wedding with this trashy blond girl in short shorts to a big Andre-the-Giant-type guy named Big T. Then some cajuns kidnap the bride and take her to a swamp hideout. The rest of the story is Big T trying to get her back while she tries to escape.

There is an incredible scene involving her in a very small top with short shorts and a visor driving away from the bad guys on a speedboat.

Awesome.

Brian to even admit that you have that movie you should be given an award, my 2 cents concerning the sch. it is a double edge sword because most times you make those sch. out your team is very good and there is no way to predict that you will be that good in the future i.e. Fresno State had a few good turns whipping on the big boys, upgraded their sch. and team took a turn for the worse and they took a whipping this year, and most times like another poster mentioned your not going to get the big boys to give you a home and home they won't do it because they get no revenue from playing in Boise Idaho, schedule some cupcake at your home field pay them 20,000 or whatever and keep the rest, dont forget football is footing the bill for all those other title 9 sports you have to have. or whatever title it is!!! Boise State in a 1 game set-up could play with anyone but to asked them to play in the SEC I doubt that would be .500

Sadly, I never saw Gator Bait 1. I forgot -- it's actually called Gator Bait 2: Cajun Justice.

It's awesome. Nobody will watch it with me.

Tell me now, why would anyone NOT want to see this film?! She's in a swamp wearing short shorts and holding a snake and a shotgun for crying out loud!
