RE: to recap
I don't think so. I think their stadium was brought up to 36,387 in 2012.

2013
they played Washington..in washington

2012
Played MSU at MSU

2011
Georgia..at Georgia dome.

So they aren't getting anyone to their stadium either..
The past 10 years I agree but their future schedule is MUCH better BUT they now have a 50k+ stadium so they can pay the visiting teams a big check.

I agree.. their new stadium changed everything

As the Boise State football program rose to national prominence in the early 2000s, Bronco Stadium became increasingly insufficient. The school completed a 3-story complex on the stadium's west side called the Stueckle Sky Club (pronounced Stickle). Construction began on it on February 11, 2007, and it officially opened on August 27, 2008 with a gala for ticket holders prior to the first game on August 30.[32] It features levels for a new press box, luxury suites, loge boxes, and club seating and increased seating capacity to 32,000.
The practice facility, named the Caven-Williams Sports Complex, officially opened in February 2006, and it is located immediately northwest of Bronco Stadium.[33] Additional temporary seating of 1,500 was added prior to the 2009 season. The removable bleachers increased capacity to 33,500. Permanent bleachers were also added to the north and south end zones prior to the 2012 season, raising Bronco Stadium's capacity to a total of 37,000.
In late August 2010, new expansion plans were revealed for Bronco Stadium. The first stages were to include adding a new facility to the north endzone to house the football offices, weight room, training room, equipment room and locker room. Plans also included a 13,200 seat grandstand. The later stages of the expansion plan included removal of the track, lowering of the field, and adding 3,300 seats in front of the first deck of the stadium, completion of the south endzone horseshoe, building of an east side skybox, and renovation of the east side concourse. The total cost for all planned expansions was around $100 million. The total seating capacity for a fully expanded Bronco Stadium was estimated to be around 53,000.[34] The Boise State athletic director aims to have the north endzone complex open in time for the 2013 season and does not resemble the 2010 plans.[35]

Currently yes but by the time they host Florida St, Oklahoma St & Michigan St all in consecutive seasons they will have a 52k stadium...which is already in the works.

Also, Boise is relatively in the middle of nowhere. It's a lot cheaper for most to travel to DeKalb.
