Instant Analysis: ‘Tremendous guts’ propel Boise State to dramatic win vs. BYU

Boise State defensive coordinator Andy Avalos and wide receivers coach Eric Kiesau saw the end of the Texas-West Virginia game Saturday while they were waiting for the Broncos’ late-night kickoff against BYU. That game was decided on West Virginia’s two-point attempt.

“What would you have done?” Kiesau asked Avalos.

Little did Avalos know, he’d face nearly that same scenario himself by the end of the night. And he did what he told Kiesau he would do — bring pressure from the wide side of the field to prevent the quarterback from rolling right and use the defensive line to prevent a quarterback draw.
