They'll end up being a Fresno State type of program, which is respectable.

But, their 15 minutes of fame is up. You'll see their fan base shrink by huge amounts over the next 5-10 years.

I hope. I have too many BSU fans in my family.

I think BSU has much more in place than Fresno St. and will continue to be

How can BSU have more tradition if they don't have any to begin with?

BCS Bowls, wide open offense, trick plays, good quarterbacks.

What other team in the MWC has more tradition than BSU?

BSFN

4/21/14 10:58am

Winning is the best tradition of all. How many losing seasons has BSU had?

Fresno has a much better talent pool nearby.

I was surprised they didn't sell out vs BYU two years ago

By rabid, people really mean that they have rabies.

You sure it wasn't sold out? Capacity: 36,387 Attendance: 36,864

Were they ever elite?

Freddie Cougar

When you have multiple and consecutive top 10 finishes, yes, you're elite.

Was that a serious question?

There were probably a missed field goal away from the championship game

Art Director

The same year they eeked out wins over mediocre VTech and Oregon St?

Freddie Cougar

Virginia Tech was 11-3.

Art Director

4/21/14 9:34am

Virginia Tech also lost to James Madison and had a pretty weak schedule

Freddie Cougar

4/21/14 9:37am

Nah, they were elite for sure.

Walter Bellhaven

Best program in the intermountain west 05-13

Blue Oyster Cult

I agree with that. Not sure that qualifies as elite though.

Freddie Cougar

Beating the Big 12, ACC, Pac-10, and SEC East Champs in 6 years is pretty elite.

Blue Cat

4/21/14 10:41am

And I'm sure BYU fans would claim you were elite to if you had done something

BSFN

4/21/14 11:03am

It would depend entirely on the schedule BYU played

Freddie Cougar

4/21/14 11:29am

What about a season like this?

Dread Pirate Westley

I believe this is what you're looking for:

Ouch, burn. Very good point.

Whatever. We have 4 star quarterbacks ride the pine for 4 years.
