You also hurt your closest bottom competitor while virtually, and maybe actually, locking up the NY6 game.

Finally, IF it gives you the little extra to get the real prize, BYU, and more ammo to push the P6 narrative along with renegotiating media rights, it becomes a no brainer.

There are some IFs in there but I think at least the NY6 game “should be” reasonably locked up. BYU may or may not be feasible, but if so, surely the media rights deal gets a bump.

1. They have a blue field. Otherwise it's been six years since they played in a game of national importance. They have a strong regional following. They have relevance for the people who were in their twenties during the 2000s, the ones who remember the statue of Liberty. They have no relevance to people over fifty because they have one decade of success trying to compete with traditional powers and people under 20 think of them like Marshall.

2. Just to be clear, our nearest competitor is whatever conference has a decent run that year. It was the MAC one year, the Sunbelt this year, the MW when Boise went. Nor is taking one team going to drastically change any G5 conference. Besides all the knock ons that SLH pointed out.

3. Why would adding Boise make us more attractive to BYU? Who is the other add coming with BYU to get that even number that the super pro Boise/expansion people think is so important? How are we paying for them if they aren't Army, the only team likely to earn it's fair share at that point?

Your IFs ignore the fact that we currently have the NY6 locked up with out adding anyone. We have had multiple teams ranked in the cfp every year and finished with multiple teams ranked in the final poll multiple times as well as having the set up because of AAC rankings of the AAC teams, that our championship game winner is the default NY6 team. Adding Boise doesn't add what we already have.

Your a Tulsa fan right? Just wondering where you get so much misinformation about Boise.

Oh? You're a Boise fan? So I suppose you think just asserting things is how it works. This isn't like the Rush Limbaugh show you listen to while putting them miles behind the big rig your truck driving school got you into on a low interest loan after graduating a proud Bronco.

I even conviently numbered them if you have an issue.

Look guy your just misinformed on a lot of stuff. It’s OK but maybe stick to your lane of Tulsa football rather than offering half baked claims as some kind of fact. Point of fact the mountain division has been proven to be a tougher division than the west. I get it’s a sensitive subject because SDSU and BSU pulled out last time after Tulsa and Tulanes addition but try to get over your hurt feelings ?

We just went over your point of fact.

Beyond that you have nothing. Amusing and unsurprising.
