Boise State vs Oklahoma 2007 Fiesta Bowl COMPLETE

[@idmtns6634]

Every time this game is played on a TV at Walmart or Costco here in Boise, there are at least half a dozen guys standing around watching and they still can't help but get excited. Seven years later it's still as fun as ever.

[@morrisritchie8125]

Since I’m writing this twelve years after the fact, I have no illusions that anyone will actually read it. Having said that, this was truly a game for the ages. The announcers, none of whom are household names, did a fantastic job throughout the game. I was particularly struck by the pregame interview with Boise State’s head coach, and his response to the question “can you hang with Oklahoma?” “We’ve been practicing hard, and we’re gonna leave it all on the field.” If that wasn’t prophetic, then I don’t know what prophetic is.

[@jackmiller-johnston8689]

Didn't mind staying up till 4 in the morn to watch this from the UK. Best college game I've ever seen, and why I'll forever be a Broncos fan!

[@17fused]

I respect that statement bro. Usually people in the UK just rip on American football.

[@jackmiller-johnston8689]

Thanks very much, it's my absolute favourite sport. What you mentioned is the ignorance of some soccer fans coming out. Gridiron IMO is growing in popularity here, mainly due to the NFL International Series.

[@Garwen1976]

17fused Not anymore. Wembley is sold out three times a year now for regular season NFL games. Whilst I LOVE football, I also love American Football. Trust me, this sport is getting HUGE over here.

[@jackmiller-johnston8689]

Preach it, Darren lad!

[@WhaddupImJohn]

Went to this game in seventh grade with my dad. Best game I've ever seen played in my short 19 years. I will never forget this game and I am proud to be a student and I will support them for live. Bronco Nation!!!!

[@jazzbuffalo1]

This is hands down the best college football game I've ever seen. Instant classic.

[@Idaho27]

“The lateral!” Still puts a smile on my face 17 years later. Go Broncos, America’s team

[@santa6688]

It doesn't take a Bronco or Sooner fan to appreciate this fantastic game. Amazing upset on a big stage using one of the coolest trick plays in football. One-point game, high scoring, went to overtime...what more could you ask for!?

[@zMd113]

Even though my Sooners lost that night it was and still is the greatest football game I've ever watched.

[@lukeslc-xd8ds]

Oklahoma has always been a powerhouse in football. I wish them the best. (A Boise State fan)

[@joshcullins889]

As a Sooner fan, this game was amazing to witness, even though the loss was pretty painful. I'm proud to say I was there in person to watch one of the greatest college football games ever!

[@Thekingcmk]

Dear Boise state, Thank you for a Hell of a game to watch and enjoy especially the end Love, Longhorns Everywhere

[@RicMorales1]

I've watched awesome international soccer games, thrilling NBA, college BB, but this game by far is the greatest and most exciting game/sporting event of all time!

[@bradleyt1978]

I rarely watched College football back in 2007 but I was bored and lucky enough to turn on this game about half way through. Best College football game that I have ever watched, it had me yelling and jumping up and down. Great game!!!!

[@JfnDWatchesVids]

This was a terrific game,,,thanks for posting. Always a pleasure to watch Oklahoma lose creatively:-).

[@lTha208l]

I can’t believe I’m watching this again 17 yrs later. I still remember that night I was in 4th grade watching this with my pops (he doesn’t watch football usually) but damn we were both into it all game it was a roller coaster ride!

[@DiveBum18]

to me the hook and ladder play was the best moment I ever experienced watching college ball. The statue of liberty was icing on the cake. Best game ever, by far

[@TimsRankings]

This was probably THE greatest college football game I have ever seen!

[@WWESecondCitySaint]

I remember this was on a school night and i stayed up past my bedtime to watch this! truly great moment in sports!

[@Just4AZ1]

As an avid college football fan, this was the greatest game I had ever seen.

[@bradley1240]

Greatest game i have ever seen in any sport, i will never forget anything about it and i am not a boise state nor oaklahoma fan. Thank you so much for this video, i still get goosebumps watching it now!

[@drcool1222]

Only saw like the 4th quarter/OT of this game live on tv, but that was enough to see how AWESOME it was.

[@AustinPietryga]

I remember watching this when I was 8, and everyone knew Oklahoma was going to win. To this day, I still laugh about Boise St. throwing the Statue of Liberty play to win, but it was still amazing to witness this live. I don't think this will ever be duplicated. Even if anyone tried.

[@26rrRobinson]

Who else gets goosebumps when the announcer says, "The lateral!"?

Absolutely and not even a close second...Boise's last four scoring plays were 1. hook and lateral; 2. extra point; 3. halfback option/toss; 4. statue of liberty. Classic!

Starting to watch this again as an NIU fan as we head toward the MAC Championship on Friday; this game gives all mid-majors hope

Just watched this years fiesta bowl and while it was a good game, it reminded me of the greatest football game of all time.

[@abuslume4169]

Tomorrow Boise state plays Penn State in the Fiesta Bowl, and no one believes we can win. Hope history repeats itself.

[@wrthorns]

One of my favorite games in College Football. For me the reason NOT to have a playoff. We would lose these special moments. I love the traditions and I do not need to "know" who number 1 is. Favorite moment looking back at 2:33:02 AllState Good Hands Play of the Game ... a mere 4 touchdowns, 2 fourth and game, one wild extra point and half a dozen heartbreak and heart attack moments for both set of fans too early.

[@AJthe13th]

Amen I am kind of with you in that vein. It’s not popular in 2022, but it’s fair though. The epic traditions and awesome moments like this are something that is lost now. Nowadays, these Oklahoma kids would have sat out. Adrian Peterson (who played a great game, and truly provided the big dog for the story) would have never even played, and that’s not right. I think that’s sadly something that is lost in today’s game. The consolation is that in a season, in 2024, when we move to a 12 team playoff, perhaps we can have epic moments in the playoffs now, between Oklahoma #2 and Boise State #7, but it’s not going to be the same. Some traditions were lost which is sad. But I’m hopeful that with the 12 team playoff, we could get some of it back. I agree with you though, these special moments, and creating my bowl schedule during the holiday seasons as a kid was the most fun thing ever.

[@babyflavas]

I love watching for players that are in the NFL now.

[@1teacherspit]

Whether or not it was trick plays that won this game, this was one hell of a game to watch. It was New Year's Eve and I stayed in to watch and oh boy did I make the right decision. I believe the better TEAM won. Now OK probably had better players, but they were not the better team that night.

[@Dedmon319]

This isn't the greatest game of all time, but it is without a doubt the greatest finish of all time. I'm an OU fan it's one of my all time favorite games. Absolutely incredible!

[@SuperNoone24]

I can watch the last part of this game over and over all day long. I crack up at Brennaman's lack of enthusiasm when AP scores on the first play of OT. :-D

Thanks fellow fan of college football

[@AlarmingRob]

I sat on the side of the endzone where Boise's last TD and Statue of Liberty occured right in front of me. We knew when we left that it was a game for the ages, and we would be talking about that game for many many years.

[@sepuljoe06]

Man, remember watching this with my dad and brother, we were obviously rooting for the Broncos in this one, we love underdogs winning. We were practically screaming at the lateral and statue of liberty play, was just so damn epic.

[@FireLightning16]

I still can't get over how great of this was now almost 6 years later even though I am a Ben Ten guy with the ever Fiesta Bowl in that stadium

Two years later, Utah Utes from the WAC will have another perfect season and allowed to play Alabama. Half time score was the same for the Utes as Boise State.. 21 - 10 over Alabama and Oklahoma.

[@hannahchaney2171]

Same with me. Seeing the little guys beat the giants is so awesome. It completely redefined our football program. Too bad you can only do something like this once:( Once you accomplish something like this, you are no longer the major underdogs.

[@BaseballMusic123]

As an NIU Huskies fan, I watch this to dream. Maybe it's our turn.

[@ddAndTheca]

This game is way better than I remembered

[@monotonesarcasm]

This game completely changed the landscape of the BCS. It just goes to show that an unknown school, at the time, like Boise State can outplay and beat a heavily favored and media covered team like Oklahoma. One of the greatest games I've ever watched, although the venue was the place of every patriots fans' nightmares including mine (SB 42).

[@bbabins45]

This was the best game of football i have ever seen.

TY for uploading.

[@Bucky87]

This is one of my favorite games ever. I never noticed until today that ref in the back corner of the endzone threw a flag on the statue of liberty two point conversion. Wonder if that was because Ian threw the ball into the stands but it did not matter since it was after the play was over.

[@brasteen1]

This game was epic. No other way to describe it.

[@GialloHorror]

You're probably right. I'm a Sooners fan but I liked this video. Even though my team came up on the wrong side, there's no denying this is one of the greatest college games ever played. Sooners fans should know Stoops can't win a big bowl game anyway.

[@govrom12]

And for you it has to be a triple pleasure that Boise State used three trick plays to bring down the Sooners. Seeing that WTF look on Coach Stoops face after those plays was a definite VISA moment. It was PRICELESS!!!!

[@govrom12]

This was the game that was the catalyst for a college football playoff. Had Boise State lost we might not have the change in college football beginning January 2015.

[@Thegooman67]

I always appreciate fans that are honest and not extreme homers.

[@UltraMarcus28]

I look at this game in a completely different fashion today. It's disgusting how much Adrian Peterson craves victory. I'm a Vikings fan, and the few games he played in that season told me he had to be a Viking. Never did I think it would actually happen.

[@morrowrail]

Still the best football game I've ever seen.

[@Zombqvist]

OMG I landed randomly into this game. Amazing!

[@signthebread]

I'm sorry but I think this is the single greatest college football game ever. The scope was very close to that of a national championship, with the BCS Power Conference vs Small Conference, BCS vs. Playoff debate raging, everyone was looking to this game to see how good the small conferences really were. The back and forthness of the game is unrivaled. At 28-10, following a pick-6, Boise St. looked sure to win, with all the momentum and a 3 score lead. Then OU comes ROARING back, capping their comeback with a spectacular drive the length of the field spanning just 1:14 and an pick-6 on the very next play from scrimmage. Watching this game, at that point, no one thought Boise St. had a chance. Often overlooked are the plays that got Boise St. to the situation where the famous statue of liberty was executed. They had :54 to go 78 yards, No chance. But then a 36 yard pass! They have a chance! Sack, game over. 2 incomplete passes, :18 left, 4th and 18 at the 50, game over. The hook and lateral was in and of itself one of the best plays in CF history, partly because it WASN'T a traditional hail mary. No one had seen that before. Overtime. Future HOF RB Adrian Peterson scores on the first play of overtime. Boise St. has no chance, they can't stop OU. 4th and 2 from the 6, they go wildcat, WHAT ARE THEY THINKING? they dial up a HB pass, which was very well defended by the way, and CONVERT! Then, Chris Peterson, the undefeated 1st year coach GOES FOR 2! And with what? Another play no one ever calls (except him against Idaho), perfectly executed for the WIN! And then to make the ending even more Hollywood, Ian Johnson runs right over and proposes to his GF on national TV. Name a better game.

[@BaconFrisbee]

I am not a big Boise State fan, and I don't care either way about Oklahoma. However, this is definitely a top 5 game for me. You only need one of the many elements this game had to make up a legendary game. It had 1. A huge upset victory 2. A clutch hook and lateral on 4th and long with seconds on the clock 3. A hopeless come-from behind 4. Two pick sixes 5. A controversial bounce on a punt 6. A do or die statue of liberty play for the win 7. a capacity crowd in Glendale, AZ

[@gmk05]

What I love about the hook and lateral is that after the first pitch they had another waiting for ANOTHER lateral just incase that first one wouldnt get them the first down, brilliant.

[@arthurdmiranda]

This is the 3rd greatest bowl game if all time behind Ohio state vs miama then #1 usc vs Texas

[@davidmx45ify]

as a Nebraska fan, i can say most people think the "Game of the Century" is the one between Oklahoma and Nebraska in 71. But i'll be honest, i think this tops it....
