Summary
The Boise State Broncos used a 24-point 2nd quarter to gain entry into the Final Four with a 41-31 victory over the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. The 3-seeded Broncos never trailed and held off every attempt by the 4-seeded Yellow Jackets to get back into the game, the closest the Yellow Jacket's came in the 2nd half was with 8 seconds left when they scored the final TD of the game that resulted in the final score. The Broncos' Kellen Moore threw for 4 TD on 19 for 27 passing while the Jacket's passing game was basically non-existant. The Broncos defense allowed the Jacket's to run the ball with 371 yards on the ground, however it took up time on the clock and with no passing game allowed the Jacket's to move and score though with dimishing time. The WAC champion Broncos head into the Final Four with either a trip to Los Angeles to play the Trojans of USC or will play host to the emerging Cinderella of the tournament, the Iowa Hawkeyes.
