    Watched this game in a crowded bar in MD where no one has any allegiance to either team, and when Boise tied it on the hook and ladder and then won it with the Statue of Liberty play that place went absolutely nuts. Without a doubt my favorite college football game of all time

      Not quite this year, but you’re not entirely wrong. In actuality it was a suit brought by state attorneys from Idaho and Utah together with a federal investigation that likely led to the creation of the playoff.
      From 2008-2011 the MWC champion went 50-2 including back to back to back undefeated teams.
      Boise State also posted 4 undefeated seasons in 6 years.
      The state attorneys sued the NCAA and BCS for violating anti-trust by limiting competition for equal participation as was guaranteed by NCAA contracts with all FBS schools. Additionally Senator Orrin Hatch convinced the US Justice Department to open a federal investigation into anti-trust and fraud by the NCAA and BCS for limiting G5 teams and reducing their potential payouts by tens of millions of dollars every year.
      During the investigation by the US Justice Department it was particularly made apparent that there was significant concern that the FBS Division 1 was the only major NCAA sport that did not feature a playoff and was extremely concerning from a competition standpoint.
      Keep in mind that the US Justice Department does not require beyond a reasonable doubt or even preponderance of evidence to convict anti-trust. Convicting under Sherman or Clayton requires limited eveidence and all decisions are final and non-negotiable. They are also extremely high in fines. Such as the claim that if anti-trust was proven since 1997, the BCS could have had to pay damages equal to that of nearly $3 billion.
      I’m sure it’s just a giant coincidence that when this discussed with the BCS and NCAA the playoff format was presented 4 months later for the first time in BCS history.

      Brian It’s not just group of 5 teams they fucked. My Oklahoma St cowboys got left out of the bcs National
      Championship game for a team that didn’t even win its own conference division. If the name was ou instead of osu they undoubtedly get in. But I’d argue that in the playoff they’re even worse about it. They cherry pick whatever stats are important on a given year to fit the team(s) they want to get in.

    This is gonna sound crazy, but I met my wife here when I was a kid. I had no clue it was her until about five years ago. My dad and her dad were talking a lot and me and her hung out during this game. They were from Glendale and we were from Idaho. Years later I joined the Navy and ended up in Japan. There was a girl in my division that I wound up marrying. She was actually the little girl I hung out with at this game. Who knew? 😂

    We have three daughters now and we’re doing great! 👍🏽☺️ Thanks for the support people! Livin it up in San Diego.

Actually the coach means everything with pretty much every school, not even blue bloods are invulnerable to down turns. I'm not sure how much Boise State has invested in their program (though I'm betting it's a lot) but if they do get the right coach at least they've proven in the fairly recent past that they could be a very successful program.
      I just wish the playoff was around back then; if it was I am guessing the Broncos would've made the title game once, maybe more. And once you're in the final anything can happen as witnessed with this game.

      @@cythecycloneguy3546 I partially agree...look at UCF and so many others that went undefeated, beat a team such as Auburn in a Bowl, and that was the end of the line. I DO feel that's unfair. However, I also understand why these teams get left out. We can't help that they lack the resources (i.e. money, recruiting, facilities, etc) to compete against the upper echelon of FBS schools. And by compete, I mean joining a better Conference or playing as many home and aways with the Big Boys. That's how Bobby Bowden turned FSU into a powerhouse. He would play any team any time. He was also smart to join the ACC instead of the SEC, which asked them first to join. Really there's no way to solve this problem. We've gone from last team AP #1, to the BCS, to #1 vs #2, and now we have a 4 game playoff. I don't think extending the playoff team numbers will help. I totally understand your point, and agree, but I don't see how to solve it either except join a bigger, tougher Conference, play as many tough out of Conference opponents, and just hope and pray. At the end of the day it's in the hand of the pollsters. One thing I wish they would do away with is preseason polls.
      Edit: One thing I forgot to mention is that when a lot of the Boise's and West Virginia's, etc were "good teams" was because they were running a version of the spread option, which at that time was a relatively new offense and took the football world by storm (even the NFL). Now Defenses have learned how to defend it better and a lot of those teams have withered. I will always love the Boise State team that won by out scheming and trickery. Some say that's cheap. I say if it's not cheating...do whatever it takes

      nah! Boise State's built an incredibly successful program since jumping to D1 in the late 90's. i'm just messin with u since i'm a duck fan & the broncos have given us so much trouble every time they've played us. Outside of when they play Oregon or Hawaii(i grew up in Portland then started college at UO before graduating from UH-Manoa) - i root for BSU. That win over Oklahoma wasn't just a huge win for BSU, but also a big win for the pacific northwest imo.
      PS - one thing that i always thought was weird is how things worked out for Dan Hawkins at Colorado. I seriously thought he was gonna return that program to glory & become the next high riser in the coaching carousel. Really surprised me that he didn't succeed. Peterson certainly was able to build on his success at Boise. a lot of duck fans thought he might come to Eugene after Helfrich was fired, & even hoped he'd come out of retirement to coach the ducks after Cristobal left recently. But he did some good work at Washington... it's just so strange the way he retired so early. Harsin did a nice job keeping it going for Boise but i guess i'm not all that shocked there was a culture clash when he went to Auburn. Plus, there was the vaccine issue. all these coaches come into these recruits living rooms & tell them & their parents - "i'm gonna look out for your kid & teach them to be a responsible man through my leadership". then a coach like Harsin or Rolovich takes a lackadaisical stance on getting vaccinated in front of these young men. it just doesn't add up.

    Unfortunately I wasn’t old enough to watch the game live, but even rewatching it always gives me goosebumps. As someone who grew up in Germany where football isn’t really part of sportsculture, and if so only the nfl, i started watching college football because of the highlights of that game. Don’t get me wrong I frickin love European sports culture, football(soccer), handball, basketball(yes basketball actually is very big in Europe) or whatsoever, there just is something special about collegefootball. As a viewer it just feels a bit more passionate than most other professional sports I used to watch while growing up.

    I was flipping the channels before going to sleep and came across this. I almost shut it off when it was 28-10, but then Oklahoma scored and I said, well it could still be a close game. I stayed up and watched all the way to the end, right thorough to the marriage proposal. I'd never even heard of Boise State until they finished the regular season undefeated. I had no interest in either team really, but I'm so glad I stayed up and watched this.

    About 5 minutes before the end of regulation (when BSU was up 28-20), I called Mom and Dad in Nebraska and told them they could watch Oklahoma get beaten. (Oklahoma was the BIG rivalry when Nebraska was in the Big 8.) I must have seemed psychic, in the sense that they got an amazing game to watch.

We were giving him updates over the phone and I’ll never forget the anxiety of the last few minutes of this game. We’re Boise natives and my dad is a BSU alumni. This is a game that will go down in history for sure.

      I think there is a universal feeling or something about big games... There are sports that are more parochial, like beisebol, but anyone that is a fan of the sport and calls himself a fan of the sport must give an effort to watch the big games, regardless if your team is playing or not.

    Boise fan here, I watched this live, remember all the talk about Boise not being big enough and fast enough which, they were fast enough, just not as big...anyway, I simulated this about 9000 times on PS2 and Boise won like 78% of the time. I knew they were gonna win and it was because overall, on paper, Oklahoma looked better. But, Boise had the power where they needed it to counteract Oklahoma. I knew they were gonna win. I didn't know Oklahoma was going to show so much poise. I've got to hand it to them too. A team like that, underestimating an opponent and then getting punched in the throat like that usually just folds up. Oklahoma was able to pick themselves up and get their crap together and almost win. Both of these teams were championship caliber and I want to thank them both for creating this amazing game. I have two copies. One that I watch now and again and one that's still in the plastic. Lol Legendary game that will be watched for decades. Great job all the way around!
