Fiesta Bowl January 1st, 2007 |
|
Boise State
pulls out all the stops to beat Oklahoma
43-42 in Overtime in a fantastic Fiesta
Bowl
Recap: Do you believe in Boise
State now? After tying it with 7 seconds
to go in regulation, the No. 9 Broncos
stunned No. 7 Oklahoma 43-42 in overtime
Monday night, winning on Ian Johnson's
2-point conversion run after receiver
Vinny Perretta threw a fourth-down
touchdown pass to Derek Schouman
Boise State came to the desert billed
as the George Mason of college football
— a sentiment even the Cinderella
mid-majors from Fairfax, Va., jumped on.
The school that
shook up the seedings and advanced to
the NCAA Final Four last spring took out
a full page ad in the Idaho Statesman
wishing the Broncos luck.
They didn't need
it. The boys from Boise turned into BCS-busting
men Monday, holding on in a wild finish
to beat tradition-rich Oklahoma 43-42 in
overtime in the 36th Tostitos Fiesta
Bowl.
The victory
capped a 13-0 season for the
ninth-ranked Broncos, who became only
the second team from outside the Big Six
conferences to win a Bowl Championship
Series game....more
