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.

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!!!!

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

[@zMd113]

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

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

[@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!!!!

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.

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

[@christiangriego4659]

even though I was going for Oklahoma, that was the GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME!!!!!!

[@snowyehti87]

I'm a die hard BSU fan, and have to admit, this game is not the best EVER, but definitely the best in a long long time. Epic.

[@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.

[@LindaGray-c8p]

[@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

[@nsight3341]

All time classic!

[@broncoboy0747892]

Wow man...you are i think the first OU fan that i have heard give us credit. Thanks for the good luck and right back at ya.

[@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.

[@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!!!!

[@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.

[@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.

[@Thegooman67]

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

[@boomer13ish]

I LOVE how OU tried immediately to schedule a home & home w/ Boise the next season; Boise refused, twice. lol do not blame em. Hang on to this one game forever!!! LOL

[@RCPhotosVideos]

So awesome ! This was the first time I have watched the game since 07 and I loved it all over again ! Go Orange Go big Blue Fight Fight BSU !

[@randyfrizzell41]

Thanks for uploading this College Football Classic Bowl Game. Much appreciated.

[@bsiffy3]

The best BCS game during the BCS era. It's right ahead of USC/Texas simply because BSU had no chance in the eyes of most. None. Then all the trick plays to win...just an incredible game.

[@joepatricio8278]

Just gunna go ahead and say this is the greatest college football game of all time, only other game i'd put in its category would be Michigan vs App State, but this one was legendary

[@BaseballMusic123]

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

[@Glizzy_763]

I saw this game live when I was in 8th grade. My grandma said it was over but I told her its never over till its over..

[@CoryDon007]

Being a OU fan I do have to admit that this game is a classic and that it will be talked about for quite awhile. Still to this day when BSU plays with a so called Big Dog they win. Since this game I have stated to everyone that every time BSU plays a so called Big Dog team, do not ever count them out. In my opinion they have showed every year that they belong in an automatic qualifier league. I believe this finally will happen in 2013 to the Big East. Good Luck to BSU once this happens.

[@TimsRankings]

at 1:26 left in regulation, while OU was going for the 2 point conversion (3rd play), the announcer said, "This IS the Game!". Little did he know that the game was FAR from over!

[@davidmcnight87]

The best thing about the announcers you could tell that they wanted Boise to win. Normally that would be unprofessional, but in this case everyone was on Boise's side, and it was totally acceptable. Un-freaking-believable.... Awesome game

[@dylancisario4013]

Even though they had a bad year this year they can still be a great team with patti becoming the possible starting qb the future is bright

[@dw2250183]

Thank you for your sincere comment. I was just expressing a opinion, but your sincere opinion was very touching. Oh by the way, I foregot the 06 Michigan-Ohio State game. You remember 1 vs, 2.Yeah, OSU won that one. By the way, hasn't OSU beaten ScUM 9 out of last 12 meetings? Oh that's right they have. So your right GO BLOW! Go Bucks!

[@dw2250183]

I am a Buckeye fan and I will admit this was a classic game. But to call it the best ever. I think some people might disagree with that assement. Like people who saw the 84 Miami-Nebraska game, or Texas-USC NC game, or the 05 USC-Norte Dame game and I cannot fail to mention the 03 Ohio State-MIami NC game. I am probably foregetting some that I should remember but, I wouldn't call this the greatest I have ever seen. It was a good one though.

[@govrom12]

Watching Sooner Nation fans in disbelief after Boise State won on that statue of liberty play was priceless. I love it when the big pompous schools from the SEC, Big 12, and Big 10 get beaten. This was almost as good as the upset that happened later on that year when Appalachian State took down Wolverine Nation in Ann Arbor.

[@Helllllerrrrrrrrrrr]

this game first showed that shutting out these "small teams" is ridiculous... TCU did it in 2011 or 2012 with the rose bowl.

[@torshjohansen6916]

Nate T : But they have a winning record in the BCS bowls -- which IS relevant. :)

[@icemanjayketchum]

@AlarmingRob Oh I bet :) When I saw the hook and ladder I screamed because I had never seen that kinda play before! I'm a Ducks fan but I like BSU a LOT too :) This is likely the best BCS game ever (on par with 06 Texas USC) I went and saw the ducks beat Wisconsin a few months ago and I had that same feeling (from a ducks fan view of not winning since 1917) When DeAnthony scored from 91 yards out he was coming at me :) I'm thrilled you got to see that :)

[@jaykdub926]

sounds great in hindsight but anything can happen in college football. a blocked kick,a fumbled snap, a fumble by the running back,etc. he did the right thing which is get the score. if he would've stopped at the one and his offense fumbles the ball or the FG gets blocked,he'll be the scapegoat.

I think maybe when the guy from Oklahoma picked off that ball late, maybe he should have went out of bounds to run out the clock and kick a field goal. But, I think that would be too much to think about while running toward the end zone.

you are then subjecting 18-23 year old to a 16 game, maybe even more with conference championships, season. It would be brutal. The quality of games of just go down with such a stretched out season. But most importantly, Noone wants to compete with the NFL during playoffs

I don't know how many time outs Boise State had....but if it's less than 3, the OU guy should've run out of bounds at the 1....3 plays, FG game over....BSU is extremely fortunate OU scored a TD giving them a chance....albeit a slight one
