They have one sport, no fans, no academics, and no market. Think they've got a pretty good fanbase .... at least in these good times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a better market and other sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea, but do know they travel well based on their bowls and seeing tons of them in the Atlanta airport coming back from South Bend when BSU played UGa ...

Boise's a nice little town, but the fact that there's virtually nothing else to do there is a factor. But they have a rabid, well-trained fanbase. They even have a schedule of what seats wear what colors for specific games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabid, well-trained, relatively small, and located entirely in Idaho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but they've also had football longer. We really need a period of consistent winning like they were able to string together for a bit of the late 90's throughout the 2000's. That would give USF an opportunity to "train" and "ferment" a more rabid, consistent fanbase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
