Came across on Youtube. Was recently posted. Last few minutes of game. Brought back some nice memories. Phil Villapiano seen on the sidelines. I would love st see the part again where he ran on the field and cost BG a pretty big penalty.

Lorenzo Neal was Fresno's fullback. I believe Trent Dilfer was the back up QB as well.

Just looking on youtube, it looks like someone posted the Las Vegas bowl when BG beat Nevada. It looks like the whole game is posted in numerous 8-9 minute clip.

What a great memory. I was on the sidelines in my orange, white and green [I had food poisoning courtesy of Jack in the Box.]

The pass fell incomplete right in front of me. We went absolutely N-U-T-S. No one person gave BG a chance in that game. After the game, Fresno had nothing nice to say about BG but more bemoaning the fact they couldn't win their "swan song" game.
I believe that was the last year they were in the mountain west.

They also had the most ODD off turfs. It was basically moss. We called it "Chia-Turf."

BG was a 14 point dog going into the game...I have it on tape from the old Sportschannel.

GREAT ending to a great year.

I remember gathering my BG friends from Cincy and going to a bar to watch that game. I also remember calling every bar in town to find out if they had the channel the game was on. The first place we went to lied on the phone and didn't have the game, so we packed up and went to a different place that took 15 minutes to find the game. Good times. Great game.
