What has Arkansas done that's impressive besides getting outplayed for most of the day and scrambling to come from behind to beat an A&M team that will probably finish with 5 or 6 losses?
Also, Arkansas's strength off schedule is in the sixties. Boise's is in the low thirties. For that matter, Boise also currently has a higher SOS than Bama and South Carolina, which is obviously change tomorrow.
I laugh every time I hear "Boise couldn't handle an SEC schedule". 2007 is the last time I can remember a legitimately loaded SEC. Since then it's been 2 real contenders and then a huge gap until the mediocre teams and the conference as a whole gets overhyped because its best team has been the best team in the country. This year the SEC has 2 great teams, 1 good team, and that's it. Put Boise St in the East and give them UGA's SECW schedule and they go undefeated.

Alright, I'll buy the fact that Boise would be undefeated, so far, with UGA's schedule. I agree. UGA has an extremely easy SEC schedule. Also, Boise just so happened to beat UGA earlier this season.
There just isn't a case for this argument due to the fact that Boise is not in the SEC, or in any respectable conference for that matter. Sure, they beat Oklahoma a while ago and they also beat Georgia. Any good team can win one game, but to do it week after week is another story. Playoff system !
I do not hate Boise, but I do not love them either. I just tend to root for the underdogs. Yet, I do hate how they are always saying they should get a shot at the NC. Play somebody ! I'm sure Bama or LSU could squeeze them in somewhere. I said all of that to ask this, what would be Boise's record if they played our schedule this season ? Go Vols

Boise St. does not recruit top 15 classes. There is no way they can compete in the sec with the quality of depth they got. The east wouldn't look so bad if Brantley, Bray, Hunter, and Lattimore wasn't injured. There's no way Boise St. doesn't end up battered and bruised playing the sec defenses week in and week out.

I am now on the Boise state hate bwagon. Give me a break with that schedule. Hell, we are a 1 loss team with the same schedule. With hunter and bray, undefeated.
just not a fair situation at all but you have to give them some kudos but shouldnt be able to play for a NC with that schedule
