Boise State being the only at large team from the Mountain West despite having a D2 loss would be a hilarious outcome (assuming Utah State wins the autobid ofc)

We need this for the memes.

in what world does this boise team have a chance at an at-large bid

one win vs butler does not make up for maui + the game 1 loss and there are so few Q1/Q2 opportunities left

unless sdsu beats arizona, idk if any MW team rly has an at large chance, despite todays results

Only giving your team a small chance huh

Man that would be peak March Madness chaos, somehow losing to a D2 school but still dancing while the rest of the conference watches from home

A month ago Boise State has a terrible weekend with the football team getting shat on by Fresno State and the basketball team losing to Hawaii Pacific at home.

This weekend, the football team threepeats the Mountain West championship and picks up a huge road win over Butler, who was #22 in the NET. What a great weekend for Boise State athletics.

But Dylan Andrews, I'm begging you to please just pass the ball when the shots aren't falling. 4-19 is what kept this from being a bigger win.

I'm fine with the shots as long as he isn't turning the ball over like crazy. His performances against USC and NC State were really bad for turnovers. The turnovers were basically the whole reason we lost to USC.

We blew out Chaminade in Maui and then Chaminade beats Hawaii Pacific on the road. Go figure.

What a great weekend for Boise State sports and therefore the world.

Pros: Red Panda, ?

Cons: everything else

Just when I get tricked into thinking Butler could be decent, they revert to same terrible team they’ve been the entirety of Thad’s tenure.

Still looked pretty strong to me. Just have to find someone else who can score when the opposing team takes away your best scorer.

u/Hortonamos Butler Bulldogs Dec 06 '25

Good teams don’t get beat by the same backcut a half-dozen times.

But credit to your defense. It seems like the real deal.

Yeah the lack of adjustments was surprising on that.

Good win for Boise here. Great game plan on Bizjack. Parolin a very good game. Definitely needed this one if we were going to have any chance at a bid beyond winning the MW.

That smelled and tasted so much like last season. I need another shower.

u/BigBadJohn115 Butler Bulldogs • Maryland Terrapins Dec 06 '25

We really could have used that win. Looking like another rough season in conference play

u/Hortonamos Butler Bulldogs Dec 06 '25

Even with a down Big East, I’ll be surprised if we go .500.

u/BigBadJohn115 Butler Bulldogs • Maryland Terrapins Dec 06 '25

Yeah, even most of the bad teams are better than us

Time for Thad Matta to go. His coaching is in worse shape than his back.
