‘Finalized': Boise State Football Completes 2027 Non-Conference Scheduling

Anyone that has been a Boise State fan for long will remember the days of 'getting on the map'.  Seasons of winning but not being given a chance at the big stage because of the Broncos' 'small' status.

The team would be lucky to get ONE shot at ONE 'big program' and winning was the only option if they wanted to get any sort of national attention.

Then came the glory days-- Coach Pete and Kellen Moore winning more games that most programs could dream of, including the then famous BCS births and Fiesta Bowl appearances.

After years of kicking, screaming, and dreaming of playing in a 'major' conference--Boise State is in the Pac-12, despite the fact that it's a shell of what it once was.

The Broncos still need big games to be on the radar.

Just announced this afternoon, the nonconference schedule for next football season, 2027, has been finalized.

Boise State will be taking on the following teams:

- Western Illinois

- Appalachian State

-South Florida

-Marshall

Do you notice anything missing?

The likes of Oregon, perhaps?

None of these non conference games match up to the type of caliber that the Broncos started with this year. Going from these games to familiar foes like Utah State, Fresno State and others? It feels like they're missing something.

Many critics say that the Pac-12 still isn't an should not be considered a power conference. Given the current layout of the College Football Playoff, the Pac-12 is not guaranteed a spot in the bracket any more than the Mountain West or AAC, for example.

Which game are you most excited to see?
