“We have confidence in the system and faith in the system that it should take care of the teams that should be in there,” coach Chris Petersen said Friday night, after his No. 6 Broncos remained perfect for the last two regular seasons with a 44-33 victory over Nevada. That’s too many “shoulds” for Boise’s liking. Kellen Moore tied his career high with five touchdown passes, three on what he called “back-pocket stuff” to fill-in fullback and converted linebacker Dan Paul, and the No. 6 Broncos overcame injuries and mid-game lapses to clinch at least a tie for another WAC championship. With executives from the Sugar, Fiesta and Orange bowls watching—and hearing fans’ chants of “BCS! BCS!” through the rain and cold—the Broncos (12-0, 7-0 WAC) withstood the Wolf Pack’s rally from 24 points down in the first half. Sources: http://www.mercurynews.
