The '''1975 Boise State Broncos football team''' represented [[Boise State University]] during the [[1975 NCAA Division II football season]], the eighth season of [[Boise State Broncos football|Bronco football]] (at the four-year level) and the third in the newly reorganized [[NCAA Division II|Division II]]. The Broncos were in their sixth year as members of the [[Big Sky Conference]] (and [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|NCAA]]) and played their home games on campus at [[Bronco Stadium]] in [[Boise, Idaho]].
Prior to the season, the stadium was expanded with an upper deck added to the east grandstand, which increased the permanent seating capacity to 20,000. Part of the original design, it had been delayed for five years due to high costs.<ref name=wopfaddn>{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=c3ZfAAAAIBAJ&sjid=hS8MAAAAIBAJ&pg=2455%2C133010 |newspaper=Lewiston Morning Tribune |location=(Idaho)|agency=Associated Press|title=BSC wants $1.4 million for stadium addition |date=December 1, 1973 |page=15}}</ref> Attendance records for the venue were set in each of the first four home games.
