Are there any organizations that may plan a trip for the Boise State game next year? I'm trying to make plans to go.

I posted this a while back but if anyone is considering going, it might be worthwhile to contact this place.
I got this from a friend of mine who is a Boise State fan. Don't know how many are going to Boise, but if enough of us do maybe we can get together at some place if not here.
...........I was thinking about the fall game between our two schools. FYI quite a few of the visiting teams alumni have rendevoused at the Stone House which is an extension of the Ram Brew House. It sits on the river greenbelt and is about 10 minutes walk from the stadium. I have rented it for my alumni group and was pleased with the service and food. You can reserve it for $1000 I believe which is applied to your food and beverages. I know we provided snacks for everyone but had bar as no host. All this goes toward the $1000 fee. Plenty of room inside the Stonehouse plus great shaded area outside. They put a fence up next to the greenbelt to define your area and keep preps out! Also easy parking access. Regardless the Ram next door is a main gathering hole for all sports fans coming and going to the game. May want to pass on to your Alumni Director to coordinate.............

was quoted a price of $980 per seat - 143 or 147 seats out of Birmingham on Southwest (Charter) Cost of seat goes up if you don't fill the plane. People acted like that was too much for a direct flight leaving Friday and returning Sunday. Further, it's Labor Day weekend. Can you fly cheaper on Delta, etc., yes. But not with Troy Fans and you will make at least one stop.
See you in Boise!

Hey guys, Boise State fan. If you have any questions about the Boise area let me know. Our campus and Stadium are downtown, and there are a ton of hotels either downtown or close by the airport. The airport is a short drive from the Stadium, just a few miles.
I'm kind of nervous about Troy to tell you the truth. I have alot of respect for your program and you remind me of Boise State back before we went to the Fiesta Bowl. I'm jacked that we are playing you guys and hope that our young new players are ready for a battle because I know you guys are gonna bring it big time.
If anyone likes to Fly fish, bring your rods because we have some great fishing right downtown, the campus sits right on the Boise River. If anyone likes the mountains, rent a car and drive up to Stanley and enjoy some of the best hiking you will ever do. Let me know if I can be of any assistance.
Great forum you have here. I own some Proboards based motorcycle forums and it's great to see this one built so well!
Go Broncos! haha And after our game I'll root for Troy too!

And be sure to come to the tailgate early. We party hardy, and we are very nice to opposing fans. Just walk thru wearing your Troy colors, and I guarantee you that not only will everyone be nice to you , but you will be fed so much good bbq and beer that you might need a nap before kickoff. Seriously, I have made alot of friends with opposing fans at my tailgates and then they return the favor when we travel to their school.
Arrive early and come hungry.

Ok now we (Troy Fans)know how to get fed and have our way with drinks, we (Troy Fans) need to meet up five to six hours before game time and try out their northern hospitality. This sounds like way to much fun so can I get a "SEE YOU THERE"

So, do Troy fans like Bama too? Or, to hell with them?
And, does anyone have any photo proof of Nick Saban actually walking on water?

Hey guys, Boise State fan. If you have any questions about the Boise area let me know. Our campus and Stadium are downtown, and there are a ton of hotels either downtown or close by the airport. The airport is a short drive from the Stadium, just a few miles. What about your team next season? I read somewhere you guys are rebuilding. I checked the Boise St forum, looks like some fans aren't so happy with your QB even though he seems quite talented with some experience. Why is that? What are Boise's team strengths and weaknesses this year? Thx

What you have to remember is that our fans got spoiled by Chris Petersen, the 06 Fiesta Bowl, then the Kellen Moore years. Then a couple years ago we won the Fiesta Bowl with Coach Pete's recruits after he left.
But we haven't won our conference in a while and we have had trouble with teams who have good football fundamentals simply because they made less mistakes. But yet, we win ten games per year and I wouldn't count on us continuing the trend of mediocrity. If you beat us you might as well take our coach back home with you on the team Jet or I fear for his life in Boise.
Noise. Be prepared, Bronco Stadium (due to it's shape) and the passionate fans we have, is very very loud. Those 37,000 people sound more like 200,000 enraged lunatics when you are standing on the field. Opposing team coaches can't hear each other thru the headsets. Your linemen won't hear the QB at all the entire game. Not even in the huddle.
Our QB is good, but his oline has not been consistent or even close to consistent. We have a new oline and new oline coach this season. Some of our fans think that will e a weakness but I predict that our oline will be improved this season as our new oline coach has them breathing fire out both ends. If you cannot get pressure on our QB he can torch you badly. If he gets in a rhythm he can throw for 500 yards. In ur Bowl game Baylor pushed our oline around like rag dolls and our QB had no time or pocket to work with, but he still threw for over 300 yards.
The worst thing going for you is that we lost the last two games of our season and the last one we got beat down bad. This has lit a fire under our team and coaches.
The good thing going for you is our LB's are new and not very deep at all. In fact i'm worried about the LB positions. And our Oline is mostly new. WR's we have one very good one and the others we are not sure yet, untested. But we have like 20 TE's somehow and surely one of them can run straight catch and chew bubble gum.
Other than that our tailgating is at 100% max performance. Please come early and drink and party with us. In fact, please bring your team and let them party too.
