the 14 points Boise scored yesterday were the least they have scored in a non-conference home game since they moved up to FBS in 1996.
the 14 points they scored yesterday were the least they have ever scored against a non-conference G5 opponent, home or away, since they moved up.
No CUSA team had ever held them under 24 points before yesterday.
Their average margin of victory against each G5 conference:
AAC - 36 ppg
Sunbelt - 28.5 ppg
MAC - 23.5 ppg
CUSA - 14.4 ppg
Those numbers are going back to 1996 and remember Boise wasn't an instant world beater back then. Those averages have all expanded in the last 10-15 years. For example, it's 26.4 against CUSA in the last 10 years and 37.7 against the MAC.
We are the first non-conference G5 opponent to lose by single digits at Boise since Tulsa lost by 7 in 2009.
So, we aren't as good as Boise, but we apparently had a better team and game plan then everyone else who has gone up their from a G5 conference over the last 10-15 years.
