Hokies pay back Boise State

James Madison pulled off this week's upset of the year by knocking off Virginia Tech 21-16. Obviously the Hokies BCS hopes are all but gone, and a fall out of the top twenty five is a foregone conclusion. As bad as Hokie nation feels today, no one feels worse than Boise State. Criticized for having a weak schedule and playing in an inferior conference, Boise State needed a victory over a quality opponent. The Bronco's victory over then tenth ranked Va Tech was the high profile win they needed to impress the coaches and computers. If Virginia Tech continues to struggle, Boise State could be void of a true quality win once the first BCS rankings are released. So it seems the Broncos won the battle, but may ultimately lose the war.
