In an impressive display of skill and teamwork, the Boise State Broncos took to Clune Arena and showcased why they are one of the formidable teams this season. The first half saw them put up a solid 28 points against the Falcons' 26. However, it was in the second half that they truly unfurled their wings, adding an overwhelming 51 points to their tally.
