So, I’ve been diving deep into this whole Boise State bracketology thing lately, and man, it’s a wild ride. Let me tell you all about it.
First off, I started by digging into Boise State’s history in the tournaments. Turns out, their first at-large bid was way back in 2013 for the First Four. Not too shabby, right? From there, I moved on to their current season.
They’re sitting pretty with a 12-1 record and they’re the Mountain West Champions! That’s a solid record if you ask me. I got curious about their potential playoff opponents, and the names SMU and Penn State popped up. Then I stumbled upon these expert predictions – there are like ten of them I found! – about where Boise State might land in the rankings. A guy named Stan Becton had his own thoughts, but I wanted more, you know?
Then I began to research the actual numbers. I mean, how likely is it that the Broncos actually make the playoffs? According to the College Football Network, there’s this “CFP Playoff Probability” thing, and Boise State is at a whopping 55.34%! Can you believe that? They’re totally in the running. That got me pumped!
But here’s where it gets even more interesting. The CFN Playoff Predictor gives them a 50.8% chance to beat UNLV in the title game. That’s like a coin flip, but still, over half! It also says that Army and Tulane are totally out of the picture, even if they win their games. What a twist!
Next, I tried to figure out their chances for the 2025 NCAA Tournament. I found this website that gave a full breakdown of their tournament resume. But it wasn’t clear enough. I was going to dig deeper, but I ended up spending most of my time looking at their current season’s chances. I guess I got a little sidetracked, but it was all so fascinating!
So, here’s my take. I spent hours gathering all this info, comparing predictions, and crunching numbers. Boise State is having a killer season, and their chances for making the playoffs are looking really good. I’m no expert, but I’d say they’re definitely a team to watch. It’s exciting to see how it all plays out, and I’m totally hooked on this bracketology stuff now. That’s all for now, folks!
