Nevada upsets Boise State in OT

Boise State blew a 17 pt lead. Their kicker missed TWO under 30 yd straight on FGs, one to win in regulation, the other in first possession in OT, opening the door for Nevada.

Well, Nevada deserved it actually, much heart, and the game was in Reno, the biggest sporting event there since a heavyweight championship fight in 1910 or something, so it's a great night to be in Reno, which is a great little city.

But the Boise kicker needs to be on suicide watch tonight. His record didn't suggest this at all. Talk about losing it in the clutch ... I mean, these kicks were short and straight on.

The Boise dream died tonight in a dramatic if unfortunate way. Yes, make that a double suicide watch.
