Get Ready for Boise State
Who wrote this script? Underdog Boise State gives up 15 points in about ten seconds to fall behind by a touchdown, ties Oklahoma with seven seconds left on a hook and ladder play, gets a TD in overtime on a halfback pass, then goes for the win with a two-point conversion and gets it on a Statue of Liberty play. As our roommate observed, Boise State's coach brings his testicles to the game in two duffel bags. Then, after the game, star running back Ian Johnson asks his girlfriend, a Boise State cheerleader, to marry him (she said yes).
This went to immediate "save until I erase" status on the Tivo. All the plays are below on this YouTube footage via Deadspin.
Boise State is the Huskies' first home opponent next year; they visit Husky Stadium September 8th.

At my friend's house someone said, "It's like Sylvester Stallone wrote the script for this game."
They should cancel all remaining sporting events for the rest of the year. Following that game everything else is going to be boring and predictable. WOW!
