  • Focus Winter 2007 12
    12 FOCUS WINTER 2007 the Broncos’ EPIC JOURNEY It started in December 2005 with Chris Petersen’s promotion from offensive coordina- tor to head coach and ended on New Year’s Day 2007 with a stunning and astounding 43-42 overtime win over Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl (pictured). FOCUS looks back at the 2006 Boise State football team’s 13-0 storybook season. (John Kelly photo) FOCUS WINTER 2007 13 yes, IT REALLY HAPPENED By Bob Evancho At times, it still seems surreal — as if what we watched unfold on the evening of New Year’s Day didn’t really happen: Did we just tie the game on fourth-and-18 from the 50 with seven seconds left? Did Vinny just hit “Shoe” with that TD pass? DID IAN REALLY JUST SCORE ON A STATUE OF LIBERTY TO WIN THE GAME?! MAGIC MOMENTS Ian Johnson races to the end zone for the game-winning 2-point conversion against Oklahoma as guard Jeff Cavender (64) watches. Opposite page top: Fiesta Bowl Defensive MVP Marty Tadman rejoices in the PHOTOS JOHN KELLY victory. Bottom: Quarterback Jared Zabransky hoists the Offensive MVP award. 14 FOCUS WINTER 2007 y now, we all know it wasn’t a dream. And by now, the adjectives B to describe that win and those moments have been exhausted. Weeks later, Bronco Nation has come back down to Earth. Since Boise State’s sublime 43-42 overtime win over Oklahoma in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, the mood of the Boise State faithful has slowly changed from unfettered exuberance to warm contentment, the kind that lasts for months.
