I tuned in the Boise State/Oklahoma game at the Fiesta Bowl expecting it to be over after the first three or four minutes into the First Quarter. Man, Oh Man! What a game! I could not pull away from the tube for anything, and I had my O-gauge layout almost done and ready for first run!
When the BSU QB threw that interception with 1:40 left in the 4th quarter that gave Oklahoma the go-ahead touchdown, my heart sunk. I still could not turn off the TV, because I thought they would somehow pull it out. And they did.
Who would have thought a Statue of Liberty play to win the National Championship! And, in overtime, on a point after touchdown.
Yeah, yeah, I know, but they should be. After all, 13-0 is quite a record.
BTW, I’m an Idaho Vandal. They beat us with the same Statue of Liberty play.
If you didn’t see it, you missed one hell of a game!
