More "How would Boise State fare in the SEC?" discussion
Chris Low takes a reasonable position and admits that what Boise State did against Georgia convinced him that Boise State could compete in the SEC and would be a contender.
Edward Aschoff then tries to make some argument that Boise State couldn't compete in the SEC because Boise State couldn't recruit in the SEC.

Sure, Ed.

Dan Wetzel breaks down the recent conference realignment kerfuffle down to it's basic element: greed

Someone in Atlanta thought that Georgia outclassed Boise State on the field
There's a lot of rambling in this letter to the editor and it seems that Mr. Reese is upset that Boise State beat Georgia by 14 points and was trying to score in all 4 quarters. He juxtaposes this against Georgia beating Boise State by 35 in 2005 and how Richt could have scored more but "that's not his style". I guess Mr. Reese would prefer Petersen call off the dogs with a 2 TD lead in the 4th quarter against a ranked opponent. Riiiight.
