Well no I can’t say that really, the Pac 12 isnt terrible they just were restrictive bc of covid, so limited schedule etc

The Pac 12 is just like painfully average

They have no like superstar teams which means they all beat each other

Does the power 5 even exist

Or should we just exile the pac 12 until they become better and just have the power 4

promotion and relegation so the playoffs are fair

^^^^

Or maybe even expand the playoffs. Four teams is really narrow. Ranks 5-10 is where things get heated and they should be included too to spice things up, have more variety, stuff like that. With, say, a 12 team format like the NFL adopted this season then top two teams get a bye week then 10 other teams battle it out, maybe 3 seed plays 12 seed so on and so forth. That way there would be more action from other conferences and more variety year by year

I'd be good with 8

Hell, even 6 with power 5 champions and the best group of 5 team would be decent

But then again that might not be the most fair

Idk

Agreed. Them and maybe SDSU are bigger than the rest of the MW.

Fresno is pretty good too

But while BSU is still here

sad Boise fan noises

Has Fresno been ranked since they had Adams and Carr?

Ye

They were #18 in 2018

Went 12-2 and won the MW

Ah

As a Boise fan that was a very sad championship

I'm a San Jose State alum

Congrats on the MW title

Thanks. Still can't believe we weren't embarrassingly bad this year.

They kind of just came out of nowhere

I heard that moving to a smaller conference really helped Starkel

And that his experience in the SEC helped him in the bigger games in the MW

I've been waiting for Boise to have that like, next step season

Seems like they usually are good for MW title appearance sometimes win, but they always blow a game or two to sour the season a bit

Normally I expect the win over the FCS school and maybe one or two conference wins

Except 2018 where I watched them lose to UC fucking Davis

Now that is a big yikes

Losing to an FCS school is pretty much the most embarrassing thing a program can accomplish (especially the power 5 teams when they do it)

Unless its North Dakota State

The worst part was I had to call my sister that night who goes to that school lol

How do you feel about the Sharks chances next season?

And oof

Eh, hard to say until I know who opts out. Seems no one will give them a chance but I think it's possible they squeak into 4th in their division.

But that's super contingent on
- health
- everyone not having a down year

They’ve finally entered their rebuild
