The 2007 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl was a college football bowl game played as part of the 2006–2007 Bowl Championship Series (BCS) of the 2006 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The game was played on January 1, 2007, at its new venue, the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The matchup pitted the Big 12 champion No. 7 Oklahoma Sooners against the WAC champion No. 9 Boise State Broncos.[1] The contest was televised on Fox. With this broadcast, the Fiesta Bowl became the first bowl game to air on all the "big four" television networks (ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC); the Orange Bowl became the second the following night.
Oklahoma was the designated home team and was favored by 7½ points, but Boise State raced out to a 21-10 halftime lead. The second half featured a memorable series of back-and-forth events: Oklahoma scoring 25 consecutive points to take its first lead of the game with just over one minute remaining, the teams trading 22 points in the final 1:26 of regulation to send the game into overtime, and Boise State completing three do-or-die trick plays (including multiple 4th-down conversions and a two-point conversion) in order to secure the win by one point.
