11:41 p.m. ET.  Wow, this is all your going to hear now until Boise State plays at home against Oregon State.  You have to give props to Chris Petersen and his Broncos.  What a way to go on the road across country and leave FedEx Stadium winners.  This game lived up to the billing and now college football could have a year-long debate on hand.

Let's see if the Boise State can do the unthinkable and appear in the National Championship Game in January.

11:34 p.m. ET. Tyrod Taylor nearly hits Jarrett Boykins down on the sideline near the ten yard line.  But the ball falls through his hands and it is all over.

Let the debate begin folks, Boise State 33 Virginia Tech 30

11:33 p.m. ET.  Boise State has stepped up the defensive pressure.  Now Virginia Tech has an ultimatum with a 4th and 11.

11:28 p.m. Boise State strikes again with a 15 yard Austin Pettis touchdown grab from Kellen Moore.  Absolutely stunning to watch the Broncos just march down the field with the help of the referees.  When Boise State has their backs against the wall they always respond.

Now it is Virginia Tech's turn to respond with 69 seconds remaining in the game.

11:26 p.m. The tide is starting to turn Boise State's direction.  They are inside the fifteen yard line after an absolutely ridiculous atrocious call by the referees that was a late hit.

This is just despicable to watch.  The referees have done an awful job tonight.

11:23 p.m. ET.  Taylor fails to convert on 4th and 8 and Boise State will get the ball one last time and they need a touchdown.

There was a questionable call for a block in the back, but the referees didn't call it.  Now Boise State gets the ball at the forty-five yardline and is ready to drive.

11:01 p.m. ET.  Virginia Tech faces a very important 3rd and 8 here with 7:46 left in the game.  Boise State needs to stop them from converting because right now everything is going the Hokies way.

Holding them to a potential three points is crucial as the clock continues to wind down.

10:59 p.m. ET.  Wow, the back of the hand is not down on the ground.  You don't see that everyday.  It is not Boise State's night after a dash and scramble by Taylor on that big conversion.  The Broncos have to hold Virginia Tech to three points or it could be difficult to come back.

The secondary of Boise State is really missing Kyle Wilson right now.
