Agree, but Boise State’s irrelevance is due to being in the Mountain West, which is a dying conference with poor TV contracts, and marginal programs — hard to remember the good ole days of that conference with Utah, BYU, and TCU.Seems like Boise State has been consistently good but largely irrelevant during his tenure. Interesting hire.
It’s also kind of tough to split it up this way when the first two were at Wisconsin and most of the 3rd was Arkansas.

Amazing how Terry Bowden's career has fallen off a cliff.
Hard to believe that he was the only Power V coach to go undefeated in his debut season in 1993 (beating LSU, Florida, UGA and Bama among others) when Auburn went 11-0. He ran is his college winning streak to 20 straight games in 1993-4. By 1997, he was clinging to coeds with eyes glazed in Auburn bars. He was fired by Akron (perhaps the worst D1 program in the country) in 2018. Dabo made a pity hire in 2019, and now, ULM.
Besides their blue field, when I think of Boise State I think of the Statue of Liberty play to beat Oklahoma a few years back. Great play!
Different coach. It may make you feel old to look up when that play occurred.

And then that coach chased the dollars to Colorado and failed miserably— not sure why, he built Boise State.

I know it was a different coach and was a ‘few’ years ago. Just didn’t remember exactly when.
Recently saw a feature in the top 10 plays ever in college football. This was one of them. And, of course, Flutie’s Hail Mary against Miami.
The best part is there was the hook and lateral AND the statue of liberty in this game. Nuts.
