After squeaking by Nevada, 44-33, Boise State University should go undefeated during the regular season, this year. Their final game is against New Mexico State (3-8), and should by all rights, win the game easily. But will BSU (12-0) become (13-0), and if so, will the 'lucky' number zap them in the bowl game, and will they lose like they did last year? Inquiring minds want to know. BSU needs to concentrate on winning its last conference game, before looking at the Big Boys waiting! Did I just say that... Ohhhhhh, Connie's going to be mad... Shhhhhh!

We are concentrating.... ONE more... then HOPEFULLY another shot at the Fiesta Bowl.. No anger here.. we WANT to play the big boys.. we BEG and PLEAD to play better teams... no one will play us... except Oregon and what a joke that was. I was just looking at our record.. not bad for the last 10 years!: 1999 - football team wins first Big West title and the Humanitarian Bowl against Louisville 2000 - football team wins second Big West title and Humanitarian Bowl against UTEP 2001 - athletics moves to the Western Athletic Conference 2002 - football team wins first WAC title and Humanitarian Bowl against Iowa State 2003 - football team wins second WAC title and Fort Worth Bowl against TCU 2004 - football team goes undefeated in regular season for the first time as a four-year school, wins its third straight WAC title and finishing 9th in the nation in the BCS rankings, but loses its bowl game vs. Louisville. It was considered a match up of two of the best non-BCS Conference teams that year. 2005 - football team wins fourth straight WAC title, but loses MPC Computers Bowl to Boston College. 2006 - football team goes undefeated for the second time in three years, wins its fifth straight WAC title, and earns their first BCS berth in the Fiesta Bowl against the Oklahoma Sooners in January 2007. 2007 - football team wins the January Fiesta Bowl 43-42 in a thrilling overtime finish. BSU finished the 2006 season as the only undefeated team in the nation (after Ohio State lost to Florida in the National Championship game), and placed #5 in the final AP poll, with one first place vote, BSU's highest ranking ever 2008 - The Boise State Broncos clinch the 2008 WAC Championship and played Texas Christian University in the Poinsettia Bowl in San Diego, which they lost 16-17 From: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boise_State_University

Actually the 2007 entry should be an addendum to the 2006 season. In 2007, BSU finished with a 10-3 record (7-1 in the WAC). I remember this, because I watched the game between BSU and Hawaii; which BSU lost, so they couldn't have been undefeated.

I remember the Hawaii loss... it was SO sad.. the first one we had that year if I remember right.. I don't know why they didn't include the 2007 stats and only the Fiesta bowl 2006 stuff.. guess we are choosing to pretend that year never happened? roflmao works for me!
