You wasted a lot of words...when you could have simply said "Boise is getting screwed, again".

I guess I was under the impression they did get the 34K and sold their games out. I remember they traveled pretty well to DC for their game with VT as well as to Dallas this fall.
Well, those were big time matchups that they had months to plan for. Plus, I would suspect that most people who hate the BCS have become bit of a Boise fan by associating them with all of the arguments that point to just how stupid and a cash grab than what it is about the games. Plus, honestly, other than Alfablue, who hates em because he's a Idaho fan, there's not a whole lot of people who hate Boise. They're that loveable underdog that's hard to not want them to win as long as you're a neutral fan of the teams in the game. Some of those attendance numbers may simply be inflated by the locals in the area who opted to buy a BSU sweater at a Walmart that week, if ya catch my drift.
Consistency is the key with all of this, and I agree it should be vital when the NC$$ rules on infractions. It's unfortunate the players should have to suffer, as you pointed out, due to how things were ruled at USC, but regardless the players don't deserve to be punished.
I don't think you can rip the NCAA yet (though I don't doubt that you'll be able to when it is all said and done), since the NCAA hasn't finished its investigation on Penn St. You can't expect the NCAA to hand out santions before concluding an investigation. It is a valid argument to rip Penn St. for not turning down the bowl game, like Miami did.
