Farleyyyyyyy that game was good, but lets be real here definetly not as good as this game. And im not a fan of BSU USC or Texas i actually like Oklahoma, but this was the best college game ever
Ryan M If you like Oklahoma, of course you'd want to defend this loss and not give as much credit to Texas for winning. USC had 2 Heisman winners, were on a 35 game winning streak, and no team in College Football history has ever won a National Championship 3 years in a row, which USC was about to do. The stage Texas won on is what makes it better, if both games were regular season match ups and not BCS Bowls, I'd say Boise/OK was a better game. But the fashion Texas won in, on the stage it was set, you just can't say it wasn't the best.
okay dude, an underdog won. Stop beatin off about it. It was a close game, yes, but i would even say the game USC played vs Notre Dame that year was better than the gamr vs texas. BSU was a bigger underdog to OU than texas was to USC. BSU vs OU was exciting the whole way through, with an absolutely insane ending, the ending was far better than USC vs Texas. Its not even a comparison lol. And yes i said i like OU but im not really even a college football fan really, i like the NFL far more. I just respect OU and how they dont play like most other college teams. Theyve played more NFL style for a long time. No fuckin way u can tell me USC vs Texas was better entertainment wise, no way in hell. And u say they had 3 heisman candidates, yeah leinart, who sucked in the nfl, bush whos mediocre in the NFL, and Vince young who sucked in the NFL LOL. OU vs BSU had peterson atleast he went on to do good things lol.
Farleyyyyyyy and you said yourself "'d say Boise/OK was a better game", what the fuck, you expect a team like BSU to make the national championship? LOLOL. okay bud use logic. That upset vs OU was huge for that school. Way bigger than texas beating USC
These are just the greatest football games of all time in my opinion. Alabama vs Auburn 2013 Iron Bowl FSU vs Auburn National Title Game USC vs Texas National Title Game Boise State vs Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl
@@willmuny9201Doug Flutie Hail Mary, Brian Westbrook’s catch on the hail mary by Cordell Stewart (who was a decent QB at times for the Steelers, had one of the longest QB runs in NFL history), and The Play with the band out on the field. The rest of the games I don’t know of (born in 1995) but I know 3 of those games you mentioned.
The 2013 Iron Bowl might match it for back and forth action, but this was certainly the most important college football game ever played. As the FOX announcers begin to openly state, just BEFORE the final play, Boise State proved that gridiron football has so many play possibilities, formations, speed vs. brawn asymmetries, lateral options, and everything else, that the supposed 'little guys' CAN, maybe, take down perennial superpowers. "Trick" plays? No such thing; only imaginative, unorthodox plays, which COMPLEMENT, not replace, classic football strategy. Gridiron football is better for this game having been played. And that, to me, is what puts it over the top as the greatest of all time.
Adrian Peterson and Trent Williams have become all time NFL greats at their positions. I remember this game like it was yesterday, not really knowing who Boise State was (I was 11 at the time) and I was cheering them on to beat Oklahoma. Definitely this is one of the greatest games ever played. Everything about this game was so wild, from Boise State being up by as many as 18 points, Oklahoma coming all the way back especially from that 2-point conversion play that felt like it lasted forever, Broncos recovering from a pick 6 to tie the game on a hook-and-ladder from a 4th and 18, then the two trick plays in overtime that gave them a 4th down conversion and 2-point conversion to win the game. While this was technically from the 2006 season, the fact it happened at the beginning of the 2007 calendar year actually became the beginning of absolute madness that entire year the following season.
still to this day the greatest college football game I have ever seen live on TV. not even a fan of either team but that year I remember the talk of Boise St was going to get crushed. So I HAD to watch it. very glad I did, fucking amazing game. This is why College>NFL
Pretty impressive with the amount of NFL talent playing in this game Best player in the league AP, All-Pro Ryan Clady, Orlando Scandrick, Jermaine Gresham, Kyle Wilson, Gerald Alexander, Schouman had a promising career cut short to injuries I'm sure I'm missing some more, but what a great game and accomplishment for a team with such resilience and character
We've got 3 Fiesta Bowls now and there will be more to come. Oh yea and we got our revenge against Georgia a few years ago. I can remember watching this game like it happen'd yesterday,greatest game of all-time.
I remember watching this game with my dad back then. We went nuts when BSU pulled off that final play (well, my dad certainly did, since I didn't know what the Statue of Liberty play was at the time) to win the game.
I remember accidentally catching this live and just rooting for Boise State b/c I liked the smurf turf and they were huge underdogs. I almost turned it off. I'm so glad I didn't!!
Now we have a 12-team playoff starting in 2024 which I firmly believe that Cincinnati making the 4-team playoff in 2021 really expanded that conversation for Group Of 5 teams to be able to hang with the Power 5
you know even if you were on Oklahoma you would have to be proud to play in this game because it was so memorable and well played....Oklahoma lost but they played a great TEAM in the truest sense of the world and it is was clear the team extended from the players on the field to staffers scheduling trips...if you were on Boise State you are forever on the highlight reels and MOST IMPORTANTLY as good as games may come down the years this game cannot be surpassed..period
That's really a tough call. Most would immediately say no as there's a lot of prejudice against Boise. Being a Boise fan I'm a little biased. I think you could argue that Oklahoma really under performed during some of the season. And that at their best they could beat Florida. But seeing how Florida figuratively destroyed the second rated team in the nation, I'm thinking it would of been a much tougher game for Boise. All of this is just speculation though and in the end it doesn't really matter.
(Full scoring guide for your enjoyment) 19:33 - 7-0 Boise St. 22:30 - Hahahaha lol. 23:40 - 14-0 Boise St. 36:55 - 14-7 Boise St. 57:33 - 14-10 Boise St. 1:16:08 - 21-10 Boise St. 1:33:47 - 28-10 Boise St. 1:34:23 - Hahahaha lol again. 1:42:30 - 28-17 Boise St. 1:54:52 - 28-20 Boise St. 2:27:06 (28-26) & 2:30:08 - 28-28 Tie game. 2:33:20 - 28-35 Oklahoma. 2:40:57 (Enjoy the building up to the best play ever) - 35-35 Tie game. 2:46:43 - 42-35 Oklahoma. 2:53:53 (42-41) & 2:55:14 - 43-42 Boise St.!
This game. Wvu vs Georgia wvu vs Oklahoma obviously the wvu Clemson game. And Texas usc and this game. Been going back & watching games from the 2000s my childhood ppl wanna recommend some games for me to watch? College ball back then was much better than it is today. A lot of great games in 2000s 2010 era!!!
Thx. Just FYI; I didn't edit this. I grabbed all the full games I could find on youtube, downloaded them, and uploaded them to my channel to have in one spot.
First 59 minutes and 30 seconds = Ordinary College Football Game. Last 1:30 of regulation + OT = *GREATEST COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME OF ALL TIME.* #BrutallyHonest
or more importantly, "why measure Boise State's football season against the whole of the college football marketplace and the implied shortcoming of not being a 'national champion," and -- instead -- recognize the body of work for what it is: an incredible academic year and football season for the students and alumni at Boise State? Why -- after winning 13 games and going undefeated -- does Boise State need to do anything other than what they've already done in order to celebrate as champions?"
Back when college football was really awesome. Now the SEC and B10 want to run the whole thing. Yawn! Folks, the only thing saving college footballl is the Big 12 if you want football resembling this game, support the B12 and don’t support the 2 selfish conferences who want it to be all about themselves. It’s about time to make a stand and save this game.
One of the best games of all time
Probably the best bowl game in the history of the BCS
Forget that history of football I was there because my brother was a Boise st student
Same thing I was going to say , BEST AND BIGGEST UPSET IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL EVER!!!!!
this and usc/texas its hard for me to pick one.
"THE LATERAL!"
One of my favorite calls ever.
Greatest college football game ever played
Wasn't even the greatest college game of the decade. Texas/USC was voted by the fans/espn best game of the decade in any sport.
Farleyyyyyyy that game was good, but lets be real here definetly not as good as this game. And im not a fan of BSU USC or Texas i actually like Oklahoma, but this was the best college game ever

Here at Boise state 17 years later people still talk about this legendary game all the time
I'm 56 years old having watched football all my life and this is the best game I've ever seen (college or Pro) bar none !! Great stuff.
I just watched this video for 3 straight days. I LOVE this game!!
Greatest college football game ever played. This is why I began to love the Broncos
No matter how many times I watch this, I get tears in my eyes. A BRONCO fan for life.
The greatest football game.
The biggest upset in sports.
David vs. Goliath, in real life.
The greatest play. Ever.
Twice.
GREATEST FOOTBALL GAME EVER PLAYED!!!!
These are just the greatest football games of all time in my opinion.
Alabama vs Auburn 2013 Iron Bowl
FSU vs Auburn National Title Game
USC vs Texas National Title Game
Boise State vs Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl

@@willmuny9201 Thank you for giving me the context of the games, I’ll check them out sometime.
still the greatest game I have ever seen.
12BJJohnson I saw the game live. This still tops it in my opinion because everyone thought Boise would get their ass whooped.
The 2013 Iron Bowl might match it for back and forth action, but this was certainly the most important college football game ever played. As the FOX announcers begin to openly state, just BEFORE the final play, Boise State proved that gridiron football has so many play possibilities, formations, speed vs. brawn asymmetries, lateral options, and everything else, that the supposed 'little guys' CAN, maybe, take down perennial superpowers.

Gridiron football is better for this game having been played. And that, to me, is what puts it over the top as the greatest of all time.
9 years later but Gridiron Football is a great term for International American Football.
This is one of THE college football games of all time.
Adrian Peterson and Trent Williams have become all time NFL greats at their positions.

Fourth-and-18 is still one of the SICKEST plays of all-time and gives me chills to this day...I'm glad Petersen is with U-Dub now!
2:41:26 Hook & Ladder
2:54:00 Run/Pass Option
2:56:32 Statue of Liberty
Main thing I remember from watching this live was the player immediately proposing hahaha. This was too awesome
REAL NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!! BOISE STATE BRONCOS!
One of the all time greatest college football games ever played.
The greatest football game ever played. That last play call still gives me chills.
Best rock song ever - Satisfaction. Best movie ever - Godfather. Best football game ever - this.
I remember watching the statute of liberty play and jumping up and down when they won in 2007
What a game.
What a finish!
What a gutsy call on the extra point.......
omg...by far the best college game i've seen in my lifetime....on my toes. great job by both teams, down to the wire. Can't ask for a better game.
Best ever. Boise should have won the national championship that year. People forget about that
This and 2009 too. They f'd up Boise State and TCU that year
still to this day the greatest college football game I have ever seen live on TV. not even a fan of either team but that year I remember the talk of Boise St was going to get crushed. So I HAD to watch it. very glad I did, fucking amazing game. This is why College>NFL
IMHO, this game marked the beginning of the Boise State FBS era.
yup and a couple years later Kellen Moore came in an put boise state on the map
Tony Garcia
0 national championships
richard marous because they were in the WAC, no competition and a low conference
dennnis2781 yup
Still get chills
Pretty impressive with the amount of NFL talent playing in this game
Best player in the league AP, All-Pro Ryan Clady, Orlando Scandrick, Jermaine Gresham, Kyle Wilson, Gerald Alexander, Schouman had a promising career cut short to injuries
I'm sure I'm missing some more, but what a great game and accomplishment for a team with such resilience and character
What a great song to start this video with.
We've got 3 Fiesta Bowls now and there will be more to come. Oh yea and we got our revenge against Georgia a few years ago. I can remember watching this game like it happen'd yesterday,greatest game of all-time.
One of the greatest. Gotta say the 2006 National championship with Texas and USC takes the cake
I remember watching this game with my dad back then. We went nuts when BSU pulled off that final play (well, my dad certainly did, since I didn't know what the Statue of Liberty play was at the time) to win the game.
I remember accidentally catching this live and just rooting for Boise State b/c I liked the smurf turf and they were huge underdogs. I almost turned it off. I'm so glad I didn't!!
I was at this game it was the experience of a lifetime!!!
That’s intro. “CHILLS”
Best college football game ever!! Boise killed it in the end!
This is what happens when the BCS and CFP open things up... Exciting football, new teams, etc. Not the same old vanilla Bama vs Clemson and ND.
Now we have a 12-team playoff starting in 2024 which I firmly believe that Cincinnati making the 4-team playoff in 2021 really expanded that conversation for Group Of 5 teams to be able to hang with the Power 5
Dude, I LOVE this game
2:33:33 if only Marcus decided to go out of bounds and OU kicks a chip shot field goal...
you know even if you were on Oklahoma you would have to be proud to play in this game because it was so memorable and well played....Oklahoma lost but they played a great TEAM in the truest sense of the world and it is was clear the team extended from the players on the field to staffers scheduling trips...if you were on Boise State you are forever on the highlight reels and MOST IMPORTANTLY as good as games may come down the years this game cannot be surpassed..period
I know I'm gonna get a lot of heat for this, but I think they coulda beat national champs Florida.
That's really a tough call. Most would immediately say no as there's a lot of prejudice against Boise. Being a Boise fan I'm a little biased. I think you could argue that Oklahoma really under performed during some of the season. And that at their best they could beat Florida. But seeing how Florida figuratively destroyed the second rated team in the nation, I'm thinking it would of been a much tougher game for Boise. All of this is just speculation though and in the end it doesn't really matter.
On the right day they could have.
The greatness of College Football, they could have beaten Florida everything is unpredictable
I don't know. Florida looked pretty damn unbeatable against Ohio State
Best collage game ever.!!!!!!!!

That intro was beautiful
This game made me mad. Oklahoma had the game most of the way. Give credit to the broncos though. Can't hate em. Just a fun team to watch that year.
Watching in 2023
This game. Wvu vs Georgia wvu vs Oklahoma obviously the wvu Clemson game. And Texas usc and this game. Been going back & watching games from the 2000s my childhood ppl wanna recommend some games for me to watch? College ball back then was much better than it is today. A lot of great games in 2000s 2010 era!!!
Thank you

Hard to believe it's been 8 years.
16 now
First 59 minutes and 30 seconds = Ordinary College Football Game. Last 1:30 of regulation + OT = *GREATEST COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME OF ALL TIME.* #BrutallyHonest
The Hook and Lateral and Statue of Liberty are the two best plays in this games
Absolutely INSANE
A great memory!
Besides Mike Joy Thom Brenamen is FOX's best sports anchor.
The national title game that never happened…Boise State vs. Ohio State
1. Boise state vs Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl Game 2007
2. Tech Tech vs Texas 2008 regular season
games to remember
They hand it off the Johnson, and thats a drive by Castellanos it will be a home run. I dont know if Ill ever be putting the headset on again
I did not know that Orlando Scandrick played for Boise State.
Greatest upset in college football history
App state vs mixhigan
+Joe Biden please don't remind me of that game.....
The 14 dislikes are all probably Oklahoma fans! Lol
I'm an OU fan and I can't deny how great this game was
I remember the last play vividly
oh and by the way...it was played on the day when these games were well....meant to be played January 1st...the ultimate football extravaganza
2:41:56 I have seen it all now
What little did he know!
The best game of the non title bowl games....best title game USC vs Texas 2006
Seattle Seahawks coach could have used one of these plays instead of the pass attempt on the goal line ,,smh. Or just ran the ball, I'm still mad 😢
or more importantly, "why measure Boise State's football season against the whole of the college football marketplace and the implied shortcoming of not being a 'national champion," and -- instead -- recognize the body of work for what it is: an incredible academic year and football season for the students and alumni at Boise State? Why -- after winning 13 games and going undefeated -- does Boise State need to do anything other than what they've already done in order to celebrate as champions?"
This game needed Gus Johnson or Brent, even Classic Jackson on the mic. Great Game
anyway you can put the last 2 minutes of regulation + OT in high quality?
Boise State should be picked for title games instead of media darlings like The PAC-12
Boise State needs to head to the PAC-12 and Washington State head for exit.
Keep Washington St put Boise State and San Diego State but if you don't want a other cali team then put byu
alan gonzalez I don't like more than 12 teams in a conference. I don't think I would mind taking Colorado out and putting BYU in though.
Yeah they should of got byu instead of Utah or Colorado. Colorado is a good basketball school
alan gonzalez I like Utah a lot so I would say Colorado go.
Utah is good at football
Why wasn't the last names of the Oklahoma players shown on the back of their jerseys?
Boise did it again two days ago.
The lateral. Can you believe that?
Bad playback keeps freezing
2:41:30. Can't believe that happened.
You can't spell "outhouse" without o - u .
Didn't know Adrian Peterson played in this game
I think that he had recently returned from a collarbone injury
Steven Plaisance He did, the announcers said it was his first game back since Iowa St
Like watching the Chiefs in Superbowl IV.. ( that's for the lol generaton.. ....lol )
The only game that is very good
Would love to have seen Boise against the Suckeyes for the National Title....
2:46:37 "We've seen just about everything"
Oh sir! Just you wait!!!!
There needs to be more incentive on these games..btw no1 wants to see northern Illinois and Fresno state in bcs games
Tostitos were winners on the night.
Back when college football was really awesome. Now the SEC and B10 want to run the whole thing. Yawn! Folks, the only thing saving college footballl is the Big 12 if you want football resembling this game, support the B12 and don’t support the 2 selfish conferences who want it to be all about themselves. It’s about time to make a stand and save this game.
One of the most overrated teams loses to the most underrated teams.
I like how people consider this an upset... Boise was ranked 8 and OU was 10
well ones a perennial powerhouse and one was 12-0 with a really weak schedule so yea bsu was the underdog
OU was favored to win by 7 so it is considered an upset
BSU was first time playing BCS bowl game
Man this video has issues
Bah Humbug.
Kk
E
BS cALL IAN JOHNSON WAS NOT DOWN KNEE DID NOT TOUCH.
Rwraffy
I laugh about this little dog deserving a playoff shot...we have a playoff an look who gets in. No little puppies.
Boomer Sooner lmao
