Get in here, faggots!
If you are a neutral observer, root for the Huskies
>8-4 is a lost season for Boise
this female commentator has a shitty boring voice
boise is winning this
I root for anyone playing Boise State! Let's go Huskies! If you are a neutral observer, I implore you to root for Northern Illinois. Here's why:
The year was 1971. The Chico State Wildcats had recorded their best season in school history (that I can find, dating back to 1946) and were sitting at 9-1. They earned a berth in the Camellia Bowl in Sacramento. It was one of four Division II quarterfinal matchups. The winner would be crowned champion of the West, a poll would later determine the National Champion after all the games were played.
The matchup was against the Boise State Broncos. A former Community College powerhouse, the Broncos were entering their 4th season as a four-year school and second in the Big Sky Conference. They entered the game 9-2. The only previous meeting between the two schools came the year prior, where Boise opened the season in their new stadium with a home throttling of the Wildcats 49-14.
But this was essentially a home game for Chico. 16,313 rowdy fans were on hand at Hughes Stadium, the smell of alcohol, cannabis and victory were in the air. Ronald & Nancy Regan were in attendance, and they each gave a pep talk to the Chico State players before the game, imploring them to represent California well. The game was broadcast regionally in the Sacramento & Boise area on ABC. Shit was about to go down.

The Wildcats raced out to a 14-0 halftime lead behind TD passes from the QB duo of Mike Salsedo and Jim Parker. Before giving up a TD to cut the lead to 14-7, they scored two more touchdowns to go up 28-7 to start the 4th quarter. Shit went downhill from there.
The Wildcats fumbled twice within their own 20 yard line in the 4th quarter, and it led to two quick Boise State touchdowns, cutting the lead to 28-21. The second of these came on a dropped pass that bounced high off the intended receiver’s hands and into open arms of TE Don Hutt.
Boise State would score yet again in the 4th quarter, with Bronco’s QB Eric Guthrie throwing a 16 yard TD pass to cut the lead to 28-27. Guthrie was also the Bronco’s kicker. On the PAT attempt, the ball was snapped directly to him. Guthrie quickly fired a pass between two Chico State defenders to find that Don Hutt guy again for a successful two point conversion and a 29-28 lead. Guthrie would later kick a 42-yard field goal after Chico turned the ball over on downs and the Broncos won 32-28. Chico State fumbled Nine times in the game, losing four. Turnovers man, the fuck you every time.
that was quick
>already a TD
Okay, what other game is on right now?
Oh wait, none.
>>64417585
But here is where it gets good! Yes, after the game! It was later revealed that Broncos QB/K Eric Guthrie was ineligible for the game! He signed a Pro Baseball contract with the Pittsburg Pirates as a pitcher in 1966 and appeared in three games for a minor-league affiliate. That’s a big no-no. Boise State had to return the trophy and $18,000 in cash they received from gate receipts to the NCAA.
Chico State lost their only game in program history in agonizing fashion. But They can take solace in the fact that it was a TAINTED loss. Also, Boise State was NOT picked as National Champion that year, the honor went to Delaware. Boise State would move up to Division I, and Chico State had It's program cancelled following the 1996 season. Hopefully someday Chico State will resurrect their football program and get a bowl victory…and beat Boise fair and square!!!

Harsin needs to recruit some speedy reciever because way too many times the WRs couldnt catch those deep balls.

>>64417774
Boise State doesn't play defense either, the Huskies won't turn it over every possession.
>>64417784
Is there any meaning to the State on university names?
>>64417764
well idaho state was already taken
>>64417784
>>64417822
I assume because they're state funded schools.
This games over
>>64417822
It's a state university (public school)
In California, a lot of the schools are officially known as California State University, [City]

Uh, they had a timeout there
>>64418664
not sure, it hasn't been like this for the other bowl games
>>64418664
They're trying out new displays during games no one cares about.
Why can't this team ever show up to a bowl game? Why can't we have better commercials? Come on, NIU...
