The Boise State season came down to this game. What with Memphis eventually falling to UCF, the backdrop hopes for the Broncos to make the NY6 went out the window.
This game was about pride and hoisting the new Mountain West Conference trophy.
The first series started bumpy for both teams. The Broncos did have a heck of a time moving the ball, but a targeting call (that was confirmed) gave the Broncos a first down. Fresno State’s Aaron Mosby was ejected from the game.
The series ended unceremoniously in the Bulldogs’ territory, though, with a Skillin punt.
