Well count me out of that "football as business" mindset. If everything must be looked at as a means to future success than you'll lose the ability to enjoy the success once it comes. Plus I don't think playing meaningful games will actually hurt exposure or recruiting in the long term because as it will build your reputation. But either way, enjoying a great matchup, win or lose, is of far more value than using the schedule as a means to possibly increasing your title hopes years down the road.
I think some of you guys aren't giving credit to what BSU has done. Like one poster said, over the last few years they have been a much better team than us. If we played right now it'd be a close game.
BSU has a lot of talent and a great coaching staff. We can't forget, a lot of people doubted and reamed BSU before their BCS win over Oklahoma. Very few people saw that as a possibility, but it happened. Can't underestimate them.

At this point in time we want nothing to do with them. It is a no win situation as robsker has stated.
Coach Osborne wants nothing to do with them is my guess. Looking at our schedule, they are not down the food chain far enough to be considered.
We will play one BCS team that is considered a top ten program it looks like.
Then KState the rest of it.
Boise is out of our league at this time.
And as another person stated there is absolutely no reason to go to Boise, we would only be helping their cause no matter the outcome. And as much as most of us hate the football business quote it is spot on.
Whether we could beat them is of little importance. Trust me mention Boise State to Oklahoma and see the reaction.
We need to return to something close to what we were, before we even consider taking on the Broncos.
My guess is if we gave up 22 first downs and 358 yards of offense we would not be on the winning side of Boise State. There is a lot of work to be done, not even close at this time.
They have score board. Nothing more to say.

Hell yes!!! Why should Nebraska fear a team from the Weak a$$ Conference (WAC) as I like to call it? Living in Reno which is deep in the heart of WAC country, Boise State is the top notch team that the University of Nevada considers a rival (and usually plays them close). Yes, this is the same Nevada team that Nebraska beat down 52-17 in '07 with a 5-7 record so bring Boise State to Lincoln early so that we can end the talk of BCS aspirations because the WAC doesn't have anyone to offer up as a true opponent.
