Boise is probably in. Yes, they have way less money and a way worse conference. BUT considering their path and ours, it would have been a way easier to pound mid-majors and play one extra playoff game, then win out our conference or be high enough ranked in the B12.

Yes, this is hyperbole... kinda. But with NIL tell me this is not the stupidest timeline. We could have NILed our way to triple digit wins in the MW and passed every "eyeball" test of the committee. SMH.
