Hook that ladder

In an earlier post, I mentioned that the first two good bowl games would be Michigan and Boise State. I was half-right, as the Michigan game was a flop as the Trojans whomped them bad in the second half of yesterday's Rose Bowl. But the Fiesta Bowl with Boise State.....ahhhhh that was a gem. From the shock and despair after Zabransky threw that lousy interception with 1 minute left, to the masterful execution of the hook and ladder play on 4th and 18 that got the Broncos back in the game, to the brilliant play fake on the statue of liberty 2-point conversion all-chips-in-the-pot play that won the game, this was one of the best football games I've ever seen. Ignore the silly talk about the game reviving the national playoff controversy, and just enjoy the replays!
