Boise State

There are just a few non-power five schools that teams will play and it doesn’t hurt them. Boise State is one of them and we will highlight another later. The Broncos have been one of the top 25 teams in the country for a long time now. They introduced themselves nationally when they used a hook and ladder and statue of liberty play to knock off Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl.

The Broncos have been a team to be reckoned with ever since and they aren’t afraid to play anybody in the country. Most times they have to play on a neutral field, but there is no reason Indiana couldn’t schedule a home and home with them.

Imagine how fun it would be to see the Hoosiers playing on the blue turf at Boise State with the ability to pick up a big-time win.  It would also be fun to see the Broncos play at Memorial Stadium in return.

The Broncos would be a tough test for the Hoosiers but one they could win. Boise State has the third-highest winning percentage since 2009 and would definitely be a high profile win for the Hoosiers.
