Most Brutal Boise State Football Game in History: What You Need to Know

Boise State's football team has had a rollercoaster season, but they're still in the running for the Mountain West Championship game.

The 2023 season has been a wild ride for Boise State's football team. Starting with a disappointing 0-2 record and the unprecedented firing of their head coach, the team has managed to bounce back and is now on the cusp of competing in the Mountain West Championship game.

As the Broncos prepare for their final regular season game against Air Force, they have a chance to secure their spot in the championship game. With a 5-2 conference record, a win against Air Force would greatly improve their chances. However, they also need UNLV to lose to San Jose State in order to secure their spot in the championship game.

UNLV currently sits at the top of the conference, and if they win their upcoming game, they will host the championship game and face off against Boise State. However, if San Jose State manages to upset UNLV, there will be a three-way tie between the Rebels, Broncos, and Spartans, and a computer algorithm will be used to determine the two teams that will compete in the championship game.

The Broncos are counting on their fans to show up in full force for their game against Air Force, as the support from Bronco Nation could make all the difference. Despite the potentially frigid weather in Boise, with a predicted temperature of 41 degrees and sunny skies, the game is expected to be relatively pleasant for late November.

This forecast is a far cry from the coldest game on record for Boise State, which took place on November 15. Despite a record-setting snowstorm the day before the game, 27,478 dedicated fans still showed up to support the team. The game itself was played in bone-chilling 9-degree weather, making it the coldest game in Boise State history.

Despite the challenging conditions, Boise State emerged victorious with a 38-29 win over San Diego State. The team went on to win the Mountain West Championship game and the Fiesta Bowl that year, showcasing their resilience and determination in the face of adversity.
