After completing the 2008 season with an undefeated 12-0 record, the Broncos fell to the TCU Horned Frogs, 17-16, in the Poinsettia Bowl on December 23, 2008.ESPN.com: Boise State Broncos Vs. TCU Horned Frogs Box Score, December 23, 2008
Building the Program
Slowly and steadily, the Broncos program began to build momentum and become an elite program. Among the players from their past includes: Ian Johnson, Randy Trautman, Jim McMillan, Chris Carr, Jared Zabransky, Jeb Putzier and Kimo von Oelhoffen.Three Trick Plays Stun Oklahoma
Boise State had a magical season in 2006, and were extended an invitation to play in the Fiesta Bowl against Big 12 powerhouse Oklahoma. Trailing 35-28 and facing a 4th-and-18, the Broncos scored a touchdown on a hook and lateral pass play to send the game into overtime. After a quick score by the Sooners, Boise managed to get inside the five-yard line and scored on a halfback option pass. Trailing by one, they went for two and scored the conversion when Johnson took a handoff from Zabransky on a Statue of Liberty play to win the game.Players in the NFL
