Josh Victorian's 75-yard interception return for a touchdown off a Kellen Moore pass proved to be a big momentum changer Friday.

The Broncos had the ball at the Louisiana Tech 26, leading 27-7, but Victorian's score cut the lead to 27-14 and got the crowd at Joe Aillet Stadium back in the game.

It was just Moore's third interception of the season.

"Kellen's human, too,"...read more

Boise State leads Louisiana Tech 27-7 at the half here in Ruston, and the Broncos could be dominating this game even more.

The Broncos have a missed field goal and twice have been stopped on third-and-1 runs at midfield. Still, the Boise State defense has been a menace for Louisiana Tech, giving up just 64 yards. On the Bulldogs' touchdown drive, they had 48 yards of offense and were helped by...read more

You can win a pair of BSU-Idaho tickets by posting a comment here with the following: how many yards will Kellen Moore pass for against Louisiana Tech and how many yards will the Broncos rush for? Answer the two questions by 4 p.m. (MST) Friday. The closest answer to each will be given a pair of tickets.

There's been plenty of discussion about the possibility of ESPN's College Gameday coming to Boise for the Nov. 14 game against Idaho.

With the Vandals in all likelihood headed to their first bowl in a decade and the Broncos unbeaten, possibly headed to another BCS game, it wouldn't be a pipe dream. Also add in the fact that the show has never been to a WAC stadium and it is even more...read more

Boise State junior kicker/punter Kyle Brotzman said he didn't think the first half of his season was much to brag about, but Oct. 24's game at Hawaii did plenty to boost his confidence.

In the win over the Warriors, Brotzman hit 4-of-5 field goals, had a 72-yard punt and also completed a 28-yard pass to Jason Robinson on a fake punt in the 54-9 rout.

"I felt it was a turning point for...read more

It's pretty simple, actually. Post a comment here on my blog any day (I will post a reminder every day) with the following guesses: how many yards will Kellen Moore pass for against Louisiana Tech and how many yards will the Broncos rush for? Answer the two questions...read more

Boise State head coach Chris Petersen held his weekly news conference today.

He covered everything from Louisiana Tech to Kellen Moore to Oregon's win over USC. Click here for the audio.

Boise State senior cornerback Kyle Wilson was named the Western Athletic Conference defensive player of the week Monday.

The Boise State Broncos moved up from No. 6 to No. 5 in the latest Associated Press poll, released Sunday.

Only Florida, Texas, Alabama and Cincinnati are ahead of the Broncos. Oregon, whom Boise State beat Sept. 3, moved from No. 10 to No. 7 after routing USC. Idaho received two points in the poll.

Boise State stayed fifth in the USA Today coaches' poll, trailing Florida, Texas, Alabama and...read more

Though they came away with a resounding 45-7 win over San Jose State, it doesn't mean the Boise State Broncos will be completely content.

One area the team will likely address is a focus on physicality. The Broncos ran for 140 yards in the game, but had just 8 at the half. Take away Doug Martin's fourth quarter (63 yards) and a Jeremy Avery 38-yard run in the third quarter, and it's not...read more

Boise State leads 24-7 at the half, scoring twice in the last minute of the first half, but it isn't all good for the Broncos.

San Jose State's rushing defense came into the game 118th nationally in rush defense (259.8 ypg), but the Spartans look completely different today, giving up just 8 net yards on the ground thus far. Jeremy Avery in particular has had a tough time, rushing seven times...read more

Boise State junior safety Jeron Johnson has put up a strong season thus far, leading the Broncos with 32 tackles and four interceptions.

Johnson had two interceptions and recovered a fumble last week at Hawaii.

"He's an unsung hero on that defense," Boise State head coach Chris Petersen said. "... he's turned up his pass coverage skills and been a bit more of a ball hawk."

The...read more

If the old PBS show 3-2-1 Contact taught me anything, it's that numbers can tell a story.

So, since the Broncos will be in a bowl and have played seven games, we are halfway through the 2009 campaign already. Here's a look at where Boise State compares so far through seven games compared to last season's final numbers:

Total offense (2009) — 435.6 ypg, 17th in NCAA

Total offense...read more

...at least according to one writer.

CollegeFootballNews.com's Pete Fiutak takes a "brutally honest" look at the Heisman candidates here.

Seemingly in every game this season, someone different has stepped up with a big game for the Boise State offense.

There was Jeremy Avery's 269 total yards against Fresno State, Doug Martin's 116 rushing yards and Tyler Shoemaker's 105 receiving yards at Bowling Green, Austin Pettis' 129 yards and two TDs against UC Davis or Matt Kaiserman's 122 rushing yards at Hawaii.
