Is Boise Trying On Some Pants?



Shatel: Huskers, Boise discussing series
Omaha.com

Bo Pelini has beefed up Nebraska's future nonconference football schedules, and apparently he's not done yet.

My sources at NU say that Nebraska is in preliminary discussions with Boise State about a future series, though not necessarily in 2011, when NU has an opening and Boise State needs a game.

The Broncos say they will go anywhere that year without a return — but reportedly want a $1 million guarantee to do so. Stay tuned.

This series is a good idea. I'd like to see a series — with NU even going to Boise State or playing BSU one time in an NFL stadium. Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is usually open to suggestions. Maybe we can get that idea going again to play at Denver's Invesco Field at Mile High.

Well its nice to see that Boise is going to continue the trend of playing BCS opponents after the Oregon win this year. That win alone will likely get them into the BCS this year. But if Boise wants to continue to gain respect it needs to be playing three power conference opponents per season. The Broncs may have to go on the road for every non-conference game but that's the breaks. Pat Hill's moustache had to do it and now they do too.

P.S. - I would love to see Nebraska muder Boise State.
