Boise State fan here, and I come to you in peace
First, I would like to congratulate you and your team on a very impressive and successful season. After watching the WKU game I was skeptical of Marshall, but after seeing the beating you guys laid down on NIU I was very impressed.
I know there was been a lot of tension and animosity between the Boise State and Marshall fan bases this season, and would like to clear the air. Boise State fans really respect your program and its success. As long as Boise isn't playing Marshall, I will always be rooting for you guys.
As for Boise State getting the G5 bid in the Access bowl over Marshall, I think it could have gone either way. Obviously if you guys went undefeated you would have got in. That loss to WKU really hurt you, but you rebounded and beat two really good teams in LaTech and NIU. TBH, I don't think any G5 team really deserved an Access Bowl this season. All of the G5 had bad losses and poor performances throughout the season. I'm glad my Broncos got in, but I think we lucked out with how the rest of the G5 performed this year.
Next year I expect Boise and Marshall to both be in serious contention for the G5 Access bowl bid. Although we lose our #1 RB to the NFL draft and our starting QB is graduating, we are fortunate enough to have our whole offensive line return, we're loaded at QB and are getting our 4* QB enrolling in January, and bring back the majority of our Defense. Our schedule isn't as favorable next year with Boise having to go to BYU, Virginia, CSU, and Utah State. We do get AF and Washington at home next year, so that is a plus, but that road schedule is pretty tough. As a homer I think Boise State is going to go undefeated, but there is a real chance we could drop 1 or 2 games next year.
As for Marshall, what should an outsider expect? You lose your QB and I think your #1 WR, no? I would think you guys would keep the success train going into next year and continue to be in the discussion for the Access Bowl. You guys seem to have some young talent that can fill in for the guys leaving.
Anyway, I wish all the success to Marshall and hope you guys continue to stay in the picture. I hope you cheer for my broncos in the fiesta against AZ (If you don't, I understand
), You guys have a great program and very passionate fans!
~Thanks
