Not going to happen. You think Big 10 teams will want to travel to Idaho for a game every other year?

Idaho does not touch a B10 state, therefore this thread is pointless.

He might have a point. Look....the current Big 10 geography isn't as far from Boise as you might think.... ;)

^^You're an idiot. How would this thread be my idea of stirring the pot??? Some dude from Wisconsin wrote a letter to editor in SI suggesting that Boise apply to the Big Ten. I wondered if anyone in Big Ten Country could think this was a good idea and if they did, why....

I'm an idiot? Go do a little homework on the Big 10's pre-requisites for proposed inclusion of future members and check back in.

No.

The travel alone makes no sense.

Not like it makes any sense for them now with Hawaii and Louisiana Tech either.

Lighten up everyone!!! it was just his question? It was somewhat of a silly question, but no need to bury a guy for a dumb thread. I have seen much worse.

It would definitely make them a National power if they could win the Big 10 on a year by year basis. But going through the gauntlet of having to play Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, etc.. would be a lot tougher than winning the WAC. They'd probably finish dead last year in year out in the Big 10. Now, if they are looking for some scrub competition, I heard the SEC is looking for someone to replace the bottom feeders like Vanderbilt. Much easier to win there, then where REAL football is played, like in the Big 10.

they should join the MWC, and have Nevada and Fresno State join them. At least that's what the MWC would like to do, in an effort to get 12 teams and become a BCS conference

I say 99.999% because the B10 could always change the pre-req's even though that's nver going to happen.

Gee, thanks Sept. you're not as bad as I thought, lol;)

It wasn't my idea anyway. It was proposed by a guy from Wisconsin so I imagine he is a Big Ten fan. I know where Boise is, it's north of Montana and east of CO, so I know it's far. I wanted to see if any fans of the Big Ten thought there would be benefits, for either side, that outweigh the travel issue....
