will never forget this game. i remember running around my house that night, waking up my whole family to watch the finale of this game. definitely in my top 10
That stadium does not sound like it only held 30,000 people. On that night, in the desperation of the crowd for their team to pull off the upset, it sounded like more than double that amount.
As a Reno Nevada local I attended that game when I was 10 and got to meet Colin Kaepernick. I still have my signed jersey from him that day. Great memories...
I live about a mile from the stadium they played in. I had no tickets to get in but you could hear the noise from my house. Glad it was on T.V. What a game!
Hands down the best game I have ever seen and the best Pack win in school history. Kaepernick was absolutely amazing in this game and the entire Nevada team was loaded with talent and guys who ended up playing on Sundays. Nevada 4 Life! I love the Pack!
I think i was the only 15 year old high school freshman FROM Boise to storm the field during this victory! I can still see myself running! 😂 I eventually made it to the UNR flag and got to wave it! Both my dad and 2 sisters are UNR alumni, this was senior day for my oldest sister.
U have to give Boise St a lot of credit. Boise St started as a Junior College program, then moved up to Division-2, got there taste on Division-1 in (2001), never let up the gas peddle since, 9-W.A.C. Football Titles, 2-0 in BCS appearances, moved up to Mountain West Conference. Next season "Big East". Junior College--Division-2,--W.A.C.-- to Mountain West Conference--2013-- Big East...only thing there are "always gonna be haters", well Boise St. Play only 1-top notch Big School. DON't matter
I'm a Cali Boy Visiting my brother in a bar in Reno Nevada and we're Watching This CRAZY Game. Classic College Game one I'll Never Forget... 5 months later MY 49ers draft a Quarterback named Colin Kaepernick from Nevada in the 2 round. CRAZY.....🤯🤯🤯
Hit the pause button exactly when Young hits the turf. He's clearly not in the center of the field (where FG was eventually attempted). Hash marks are 40ft between the two rows, so I estimate the ball should have been spotted 10 ft to the left of where they spotted it. That's a big difference for a kicker with a head case. Thought maybe there was a rule change I missed that the ball should be centered for FG attempts. I'm a Boise State fan but if you can't stop the running game you lose.
this is still beautiful to me. Boise State is not a true university or a real football program. Idaho hates Californians EXCEPT for when they play on their football team.
If that was an Oregon or an Alabama that game would of been put away a long time ago like 2nd quarter and they wouldn't allow a comeback so maybe get to know your stuff first you dumb ass
Is there any way to get this game on dvd or somethin? I've been watching college football for the longest time and I gotta say this is one of the best games I've ever seen...
I like the reaction from that Boise State fan on the left @ 2:26-2:27 after the first miss field goal...his face reaction was like "did he just really missed that". LOL
I know you shouldn't blame just the kicker in big losses, but in this case, it's hard not to. That incredible pass that BSU did near the end of regulation only to be botched at the end by Brotzman, then blowing the game-winning field goal AGAIN in overtime... Yeah, Kyle Brotzman single-handedly lost this game for Boise State, ruining what may very well have been their only chance to play for the national championship. That wasn't enough for BSU's all-time leading scorer? Barring the 2017 National Championship game between Alabama and Georgia, this is the worst choke job in college football, ever.
@walleyeguy109 actually about oklahoma, theres a funny story about boise state and them, its called Fiesta Bowl 2007, and BSU would LOVE to play any of these teams, problem is, they wouldnt schedule us, there too scared, if anyone of these teams came calling up, BSU would say yes in a heartbeat
I remember at the time wondering why the ball was spotted almost dead center for Brozman's kick with :02 left. Young's catch was only a couple of yards inside the hash but the officials spotted the ball almost dead center. Anyone know why that would be? Nevada deserved the win anyway, as Boise couldn't stop Nevada's running game.
Everyone that say that kick wasn't good probably wasn't at the game, or at an angle that it looked good, or where a Boise fan and don't want to admit that there kicker chocked. I was there right behind the post I watched that ball miss.
UCF doesnt play anyone. They would lose a couple games even with Boises schedule this year. There only non conference power 5 was north carolina and it got cancelled. Its laughable. I understand the argument against Boise State now.
@@rickhoward1516 #20 cinncinati is undefeated and UCF has to play them on the 17th of November than at #24 USF the next week (USF is a bit overrated though)
Actually i was. But if you Nevada fans want to hang on 1 win against Boise. Then Congratulations. In recent 12 years. Dont get me wrong you guys beat us. But Nevada has some catching up to do before 1 win makes you feel like a million bucks...
There's a saying that goes "after a loss, you can easily identify the fans who know nothing about the game...the only people they ever blame are the refs and the QB" thanks for proving once again how true that statement is and before you say anything I couldn't give 2 shits about either of these teams
Boise state is a great team. but they have some issues. Their running game is kinda mediocre and their defense against the run is also not the greatest. Also their kicking issues still seem to haunt the team even after kyle brontzman. but the fact remains kyle holds the record for the highest points in NCAA division1 football
Tj Mckenzie sorry for not taking the time to remember the exact spelling of the name of a kicker from Boise state 8 seasons ago. I’m sure the point isn’t lost on anyone
one of the greatest games in TCU football history
Haha thank you for this comment! This game won TCU the Rose Bowl.
Thank you for this comment
That is a hall of game comment
I remember staying up so late to watch the whole game. Lol.
Brandon Stuart I was there
Brandon Stuart Same I remember staying up it was like 2:30 am and I woke up my dad screaming. Was worth staying up
@@watchareTV this game was on a Friday night I remember too
will never forget this game. i remember running around my house that night, waking up my whole family to watch the finale of this game. definitely in my top 10
being at that stadium and running on that field after the win is still one of my happiest memories.
That stadium does not sound like it only held 30,000 people. On that night, in the desperation of the crowd for their team to pull off the upset, it sounded like more than double that amount.
Its not that loud. Look up these 2 teams in 2007 at Boise. Thats noise.
One of the best games i have ever watched
As a Reno Nevada local I attended that game when I was 10 and got to meet Colin Kaepernick. I still have my signed jersey from him that day. Great memories...
Snow Wolf oh go cry somewhere else
HelpMe please explain how it’s worthless ?
@@kppicotte3439 I think they meant to write, "I'm worthless trash."
I was there on that day. It was cold that night and was loud. Man, this was one of the greatest games I’ve ever seen.
I live about a mile from the stadium they played in. I had no tickets to get in but you could hear the noise from my house. Glad it was on T.V. What a game!
even those Boise state lost this game. this game is a classic for all college football fans
True,
Brotzman. Forever the pseudonym for FAIL.
Kap should have jus stayed in Reno lol
That throw from Moore to Young was incredible!
If it were only a little more incredible he would've caught it in stride
To this day I’ll never forgive that kicker. The amount of anger I have is indescribable.
Kickers can cause PTSD
Hands down the best game I have ever seen and the best Pack win in school history. Kaepernick was absolutely amazing in this game and the entire Nevada team was loaded with talent and guys who ended up playing on Sundays. Nevada 4 Life! I love the Pack!

Jim Harbaugh seen something with CK,,,,
He was a great player in college long before this game. But no one paid attention because he played in the same conference with Moore.
Best Nevada Game I ever attended! this one is in for the books. Im sure boise is still haunted by this day!

Big East...only thing there are "always gonna be haters", well Boise St. Play only 1-top notch Big School. DON't matter
I will never forget this game... What a classic!
Boise St. has been on the winning and losing ends of two of my all-time favorite college football games... Boise St.-Oklahoma and Boise St.-Nevada...
I remember this game live.....Kyle Broztsman..... all time greatest choke artist
I'm a Cali Boy Visiting my brother in a bar in Reno Nevada and we're Watching This CRAZY Game. Classic College Game one I'll Never Forget... 5 months later MY 49ers draft a Quarterback named Colin Kaepernick from Nevada in the 2 round. CRAZY.....🤯🤯🤯
One my favorite upsets
Sad that this is what Brotzman will be remembered for, not his most points by a kicker record
i remember this game -- remember this is the first time i saw kaepernick. a wnner.
Hit the pause button exactly when Young hits the turf. He's clearly not in the center of the field (where FG was eventually attempted). Hash marks are 40ft between the two rows, so I estimate the ball should have been spotted 10 ft to the left of where they spotted it. That's a big difference for a kicker with a head case.

I live in IL so this game was on around midnight, and I stayed up all night watching it. Amazing game, just a great fight til the very end
this has to be my favorite upset of all time
it's not an upset when you can blame 1 person.
+Zurich Davis it's an upset and Boise State is my favorite team.
This will never not hurt me
Why do people hate Boise State? I have never been able to answer that question for the past
By far the best college football game ever ....
And Chris Peterson’s kicker cost him another big win vs Oregon
Was at the game. One of my favorite memories ever.
I’ve never felt so bad for an opposing player of a team I wanted to beat so badly.
Nevada Partied hard that day, And let me tell you we can drink!
i love this, i live near reno like an hour away and was so happy
this is still beautiful to me. Boise State is not a true university or a real football program. Idaho hates Californians EXCEPT for when they play on their football team.
I like that biased score change at 2:20
We knew we weren't making the championship game, but this was still so brutal
At least it got us ready for the loss to TCU the next year :P
That game was off the hook !!!
For some reason, that 1st BSU field goal attempt looked like it was good @ 2:15.
Is it me, or am I seeing things?? Lol
It was good. Nevada had shorter field goal posts, too. Had they had the longer ones, I think it would have counted from the refs view.
im still mad at the kicker smh
and people think Kellen Moore hasn't got a strong arm. Decent clutch throw at the end.
but did he win the game no so therfore he is not a clutch player ! which is why he hasnt played a single down in the nfl
Your comment makes no sense. His throw put them in a winning position...the kicker lost the game.
Your an idiot the kicker didn't loose that game they lost the game if they were a true top 5 team they should of put the game away along time ago
If that was an Oregon or an Alabama that game would of been put away a long time ago like 2nd quarter and they wouldn't allow a comeback so maybe get to know your stuff first you dumb ass
Steven Maynor Yes, just like in '08 and '09 when Oregon played Boise State and should have put the game away "a long time ago like 2nd quarter"
I was at that game it was so cold the chairs froze and holy shit I was shocked when Nevada won I'm a die hard UNR fan
I was there too. I remember the benches were solid ice when we got there but were completely melted at the end.
Never noticed that they even had the score showing Boise winning 34-31 after he missed it.
Is there any way to get this game on dvd or somethin? I've been watching college football for the longest time and I gotta say this is one of the best games I've ever seen...
Great game. I'd be lying tho if I wasn't pissed off and screaming at the time. Haha Go Broncos.
I watched it few time while it was on ESPN3 website, wanna see the full game again so bad
Who came here after Nevada beat purdue
Gina Degaldo same exact score too haha
When this happened I shit my pants. This was so epic.
Is it me or does these late Friday ESPN football games shoot out Instant Classics
When highlights are literally just the end of the game
Greatest upset of all time I remember how fucking cold and hyped everyone was in the crowd
🥶 it was bone chilling that night...
I remember being at Home watching this Game LOL
Had to come back and rewatch this after the bears loss today...
I like the reaction from that Boise State fan on the left @ 2:26-2:27 after the first miss field goal...his face reaction was like "did he just really missed that". LOL
Stopping the run game was their problem last year as well. Now that I watch it again it seems as though all the field goals where from the center.
Truly liked it.
this game caused the biggest ROFL in college football history
lmao i doubt most 49ers fans even knew about this game
Monkeyboi4567 they still don't know
my highschool runs the exact same offense! go nevada we praise u
Someone really ought to post the full game onto youtube.
Nor the second I just sat with my hands on my face and listened for cheers
The cam back was that day
I still get nauseous every time i watch this...I can never forgive Brotzman.

Actually boise state got cheated
In another angle you would see that the kick at end of 4th was good
@@jonathanfrimerman8855Exactly!
Colin Kapernick was beasting in this game, Blue Smurfs choked in the biggest came in history!!!
I watched this on tv Boise always beat us and this game looked no different at half time they were slaughtering but it got close just a great game
When the hell is it that cold in Nevada haha
zorakio2 every damn day in the winter
You have no knowledge of Northern NV
Northern Nevada gets Fkkn cold. I went to school in Lovelock.
The Boise State Kicker had a tough day at practice the day after, he couldn't sleep at night
@walleyeguy109 actually about oklahoma, theres a funny story about boise state and them, its called Fiesta Bowl 2007, and BSU would LOVE to play any of these teams, problem is, they wouldnt schedule us, there too scared, if anyone of these teams came calling up, BSU would say yes in a heartbeat
Best game ever. Regards for the instant classic from a Ute fan.
I was at this game. Boise made the kicker walk back to Idaho. Met him at the greyhound station in Reno, cool guy, never played in a game again.
If I can recall right, wasn't there some kind of pet detective movie starring Jim Carey that was based on the story of the Boise State kicker?
Colin Kaepernick was great in this game. One of those great performances like cam newton vs Alabama in 2010.
Totally agree. Like him or hate him, he was unstoppable in college. Just so much bigger, stronger and faster than everyone else.
i looked at boise states schedule and said to myself this is the game they were going to lose
What's the chant at 00:18? I went to Sam Boyd Stadium yesterday to see Rebels vs Wolf Pack and you chanted it at every 1st down.
Hi! I’m looking for Kyle Brotzman….and a clean pair of shorts
That will be a good match up.
PAC-12 Utes vs Mountain West Boise St.
@TheDeg4 I already looked. Can't find it anywhere, let me know if you find it... Wish I woulda had DVR last year.
Not only the best game I ever attended, but the coldest. God it was cold that night. Thanks Jack Daniels for getting me through the night.
Boise State kicker was missing FGs
I remember at the time wondering why the ball was spotted almost dead center for Brozman's kick with :02 left. Young's catch was only a couple of yards inside the hash but the officials spotted the ball almost dead center. Anyone know why that would be?

Except we are consistently higher ranked, and have the best QB in D1-A history.
+Luigi Anastasio Boyka fuck u
sportMCblan
nah
Yeah come back when you guys have a winning season
Pathetic i hate krapernick more then kyle and thats bad

Also their kicking issues still seem to haunt the team even after kyle brontzman. but the fact remains kyle holds the record for the highest points in NCAA division1 football
You're right...wtf was up with that? they were trying to give the game to BSU.
I was so happy when I saw that Boise State lost. A lot of their fans were douche bags after they beat Virginia Tech.
still remember kaepernick from nevada
Utah was in the Mountain West when they beat Alabama. :)
UNBELIEVABLE. simply unbelivable. CK was amazing ! such a humble kid ! God must have watched this himself and laughed with joy !
This comment aged well
I wanted bama to beat Auburn and it be Boise vs Oregon rematch in the title game. With Legarrette Blount as a "consultant" on the sideline
The day Boise State football died and it has never been the same since
I didn't even watch the first kick by brotzman
To this day when someone misses a game winner in mackay stadium people call it “pulling a grotzman”
Funny. Except that his name is Brotzman.
Tj Mckenzie sorry for not taking the time to remember the exact spelling of the name of a kicker from Boise state 8 seasons ago. I’m sure the point isn’t lost on anyone
No worries.
