    fiesta bowl shocker!

    preface: i am not a boise state or oklahoma fan. i like pulling for the underdog though, and dont particularly care for oklahoma. sorry oklahoma fans (i know there are some on the board).

    when i went to bed last night, oklahoma had scored a go ahead td with about 1 min left in the game. i figured oh well boise state made a good run, but fell short.

    i just checked espn.com and i guess i missed a great ending! final score 43-42 in favor of boise state in overtime. is the WAC a for real conference? or is boise state a gem in a midiocre conference?

    The only thing O had to do to win was not help them beat us. We never should have been in an overtime position - and without three interceptions and three(?) fumbles we wouldn't have been.

    I do think Boise is a good team, and a probably deserve a shot in a playoff system, and no, they aren't a typical WAC team.

    without the turn overs, the game would have been totally different. boise state had a very difficult time moving the ball in the second half.

    it was very surprising though. i had intentions of only watching the 1st half, as i figured OU would have a commanding lead by half time. this is part of what makes the bowls so exciting. you never know who is going to win.

    I was hoping Boise State would have a good game, keep it close at least (hate blow out games).  The game was a shocker!  When Okalahoma scored I thought it was over... till DH yelled OMG you're not gonna believe this!  Now that's entertainment!

    that game was hysterical!
     
    I loved the ABC video guys zapping over to the stunned OU fans faces when something bad happened to them...lmao!
     
    It was priceless!
     
    Totally made up for Michigan losing earlier...still laffin...what a great game. [sm=clapping%20hands%20smiley.gif][sm=wink2.gif]

    I'm not a fan of either team, either.  Since Tennessee had been humiliated earlier, I was hoping Oklahoma would fall.  I had been so sick of hearing how Penn State stomped Tennessee all over the field, so Boise State's win took the humiliation award away from the Vols! [:D]  It's not so bad now.

    Sorry, Kelly. [;)]
