And an undefeated Mountain West team deserves a shot? Boise is the same situation as Utah, really. If Utah can get in such a playoff, Boise deserves the same chance as well based on this argument. Rampaging over the Mountain West is no great shakes, but how is it really better than destroying the WAC?
I would watch Boise State vs Utah if it was a playoff game but if it was one of the many pointless bowl games like say iPod presents the Las Vegas Bowl then I would never give it a second thought.
