 The game was originally scheduled to be played at TCU's home stadium until the MWC moved the game to Boise because TCU was leaving the MWC for the Big 12.The rivalry did not end with the last scheduled game between these two opponents.Further controversy erupted when Boise Coach Chris Petersen voted "Boise State's interests" by voting TCU much lower on his ballot than the average final 2011 Coaches Poll voter in an alleged attempt to exploit BCS rules and secure Boise a BCS Bowl over MWC Champion TCU, who had beaten Boise State earlier in the season.
