Houston's Biggest Boise State Fan

[briggsb1]

You have to watch the video. "If The Broncos Had A Kicker" on youtube. Too funny.

[johnrobertlove]

First time i've run into this one.. frickin' AWESOME!! Go Broncs, and beat the crap outta GA ten days from now!

[feraci99]

I love it. Bronco Nation! I am 19 years old born and raised in Boise Idaho and it has just been so amazing to see Boise State grow. I play for Boise State hockey and when you travel everyone knows who Boise State is. You either love Boise State or you hate them. I know that there are a lot of VT fans that like Boise State now. I know that UGA hates Boise State and will hate them even more come September 3rd. Boise State keeps growing bigger and bigger.

[TwoHighways]

If Mack Brown hadn't been such a sellout in the way he started the privileged son Simms over Applewhite, I might still be a fan of the horns. I was maybe 9 or 10 at that time and I could see how wrong it was. I adopted Boise after that magical fiesta bowl finish.

[goofyman208]

IVE BEEN A DIER BSU FAN MY WHOLE LIFE AND THIS BROUGHT A TEAR TO MY EYE

[ProphetofDP]

You da man welcome to my world!!!

[oldschoolgonzo]

The only people who disliked this are either Sooners or Sooner fans! Your the man-GO BSU!!!

[gloverbj1979]

This guy is a traitor. He gave up on his beloved Longhorns -- whats to stop him from turning on BSU someday. I hope he's not married because his wife needs to worry about him getting bored of her and finding love elsewhere. It's O.K. to feel good for BSU and even hope they succeed, but to abandon your team for another is an unpardonable sin.

[gloverbj1979]

@gloverbj1979. By the way I am a BSU alumn and it drives me crazy to see people adopt a team that they are not associated with in any way.

[Jeffersonwazright]

@gloverbj1979 Get over yourself...I'm an alumn and I allow outsiders. I'm not a college ellitist.

[fbfanrazi]

@gloverbj1979 Good lord seriously you do need to get over yourself, its best to get more new fans come around than having to be ignored. And to have this guy, a full on Texas fan to jump our wagon in support of us is awesome. And it seems he hasn't abandoned the Longhorns, what is wrong with supporting two teams at once?? Hell, I've been a long time fan of the Broncos and since he joined our side, I've come to support the Longhorns too cuz i hate those damn Sooners as well. So F' off and grow up

[idahoskier30a]

Loved the vid! I'm a long-time BSU fan... been going to games here since the early 90's. Most the other fans don't remember the days of Montana beating us 60-14 or the Idaho game in 1996 when our coach was dying of cancer and they ran a fake punt on us in the fourth quarter leading 43-13. We finished 2-10 that year. I'm not gonna spout off and shout about respect, like a lot of other fans. But it's been a great ride.. a tribute to players, coaches and fans. I'm glad you're part of it. :)

[UsafRich08]

wow..... you gave up your Texan card there bud. ha ha ha Im a longhorns fan. A die hard one. Im stationed in Idaho around a bunch of Boise State fans...... I never ever would have expected a longhorn fan to do this. But then again thats your right........ Its to bad.

SO HOOK EM HORNS BABY!!!!!!

[nawassefs]

great video... it was a damn good bowl game wasn't it... BOISE FAN

[RUMBLONBSU]

Hey great video GREAT. From another BSU fan (used me be a URN NEVADA fan, HATE THEM NOW/ I had season tickets from 85-til 1991 8 rows up on the 40 yard time, took of the jersey and bought a BSY jersey in 91. Big sku days back then, the conference!) Chris Ault sucks.

This team is a true team of destiny. And to prove it, I bought 175 acres - in Cambridge Idaho, north of Boise. Thats whereI am going-- soon!!! Love your work. love OU sucks. Keep them coming-- time for a ne BSU vid-song.

[abundamundo]

This year Texas would probably stampede over Boise, maybe; in the next two years it could be a different story though.

Maybe a meet for the National Championship in 2011? Boise will probably beat Texas then. You'll have to make another great video for that special occasion.

Vamos Broncos de Boise State, a el Fiesta Bowl de 2009 tambien! Talvez contra Iowa o Penn State? Go Boise!

[RUMBLONBSU]

You will never know, thats what they said in OK!!!!

[adamcrunkcrowson]

GO BSU!!!! bOISE!!!!

[BroncoTopDog1]

hey good to know we got some of the Bronco Nation in houston...always bleed blue...and go BSU...

[3dog9ty]

Wow, good on ya ApolloXVIII .......nice video and thanks for posting!

[WesinID]

As of 9/27/09 Boise State ranked #5 in the Coaches and AP polls.

Could they be heading for a match up with the Texas Longhorns?

[nomad2C]

HELLYEAHHHH BSUUUU!!!!

SO your in texas and a fan of BSU? haha that rad

I will try to cut a piece of the Blue turf for you haha

[CowboyTD]

Don't bail on the Horns man

[Sharje2]

Hey guys, As a fellow BSU fan i wanna thank you for the support for outside the state. BSU will soon win a National Championship. BSU is a small team but will be one of the greats if not the Greatest.

[CowboysFourlife1985]

Boise State Sucks!!!

Florida Gators my Team would kill them!!!!!

[fbfanrazi]

lol c'mon man, even i gave Florida they their deserved praise for their game with those fags from OU, why the hate?

[CowboysFourlife1985]

Just Fun man!!!!

But thanks for giving Florida Respect for Beeting the Sooners!!!

I know you guys hate OU man!!!

[tatertots00]

As a bronco fan I must say Oklahoma is 10x the program Florida is or ever will be. A couple good years doesn't make you put you on Oklahoma's level(the level of Texas USC Florida State Nebraska Alabama Ohio State and Penn State)

[Crylon100]

hmmm not usc... (bribing players) im afraid usc is a sinking ship

[birdman8389]

true blue through and through! GO BRONCOS!!!

[spiritkisses]

Oh my god.. this is an amazing video. Bronco Nation Baby

[zacub]

I ama an auburn fan,but i've always injoyed cheering for Boise. I hope they join the Pac. 10 soon.

[CowboysFourlife1985]

Join the Pac-10 to whip that USC ass man!!!

[BiggestEaglesFan93]

Hey man let's stop argueing.How about a truce?

[CowboysFourlife1985]

Yea tahts kool man!!!! I aint really had a Problem with you but yea Whats good!!!

[CowboysFourlife1985]

[millerherself]

[orchidone1]

[cifchamp56]

I hate living in california. Nobody takes my BSU loyalty seriously.

[GloriousGoldenGod999]

Welcome to the bronco nation buddy!

[20862086]

Damn! Your videos are the bomb! Thanks for the love...we love those BRONCOS more than life itself. Hoping for another BCS Buster appearance. What a great program you've hitched yer wagon to...and oh yeah, I hate the Sooners now too!

[Slammed0]

BOISE STATE!!!

[zr2chevypickupman]

wow... i know exactly how you feel. i love texas and i still do. but when ever im playing ncaa on xbox live i usually pick bsu.. but i could never choose any other team over texas... i love bsu a live like about 48 miles away from bsu but i still love texas no matter what.

[abcde345]

i love you..

i've watched bsu my whole life

glad you joined in on it all.

[Hornfan84]

Is this Chance McClain?

[boisestatebroncs]

This is a great vid and it just shows how now there really is an actual Bronco "Nation", on that's even outside of Idaho.

[jtiger619]

Go Orange Go Big Blue! Fight Fight BSU!

It's great to find more and more fans around the country. I was born and raised in Boise. I was a baby Bronco.

Bronco Nation growing by leaps and bounds.

Go BSU!!!!

[orchidone1]

WOOT Go BoiseState Broncos!!!

[MaxBobcat]

god i love this video.

[doedeedum]

whohoo boise state. cherck out my site. there.s a guy who painted his car like bsu.

[Jensen745]

Wow!

What a G!

This is probably the coolest thing to happen since bubble gum. Boise State fans have a lot of passion. You've obviously picked up on that.

[ApolloXVIII]

definitely. Love BSU baby!

[montylh80]

Apollo my friend....the Horns dispatched of Austin Peay, I'm hoping BSU gets a little payback for the Liberty Bowl Tonight! Hook 'Em Horns! Go Orange, Go Big Blue!

[Game9707]

im the biggest bsu fan but im only 10 i like bsu and texas

[jwcooper52]

you know many of you are right when it comes to the broncos. But you should keep in mind that they were still a pretty average team in 1-AA not more than ten years ago. What the university has accomplished in that short time rivals what many universities have done with much more time. -Go BRONCOS beat the vandals!

[pissedoffgamer]

i live in North Carolina. not to say I'm a fair weather fan but I've been a Tar Heel fan for 11 years now. I have seen how bad the Tar Heels can be in football. I'm just saying it's fun to go for teams that are good at football. I am a Boise State fan but I still bleed Carolina blue and I will bleed the Carolina blue until I die.

[ApolloXVIII]

I hear ya. I still root for the Horns too. But if they played BSU I would root for Boise. Thanks for the comment!!

[ProphetofDP]

@ApolloXVIII

My son and I have had this conversation in regards to Michigan..

fact is we have never traveled to see a Michigan let alone a bowl game .. but for Boise we have done both!

Lets just hope we never have to make that choice.

[ginyuwinarticle]

I am a SOONER fan and YES I said SOONER fan! I have enjoyed watching Boise St as well and even like that Smurf Turf! I don't enjoy the disrespect by the boise st fans and the fair weather long horn fans out there! So I will say this, Congrats on the W against Arizona St Longhorns and congrats on the w last year Broncos! But NEVER make the mistake of disrespecting the SOONERS! You will fall harder than OU in the end! Mark my words! Was that too much? LOL!

[dylanjl]

Dude, I'm a student at Boise State, and I want to say something. Speaking from someone who was at the game, front row seat in the drumline, you, are my hero.

[sirswedishmike]

I live in boise, and boise state football is in my opinion for people with little identity (usually non creative, non critical folks) who enjoy wearing blue and orange (which is a horrid color mix) and who use some lame football team identity to mask their lack of any personality. (This is a generalization, but I've meet many here in boise.)

football is a bunch of dudes who doggy pile each other and then boring nonartistic SUV driving folks clap their hands. WOW!!

[ApolloXVIII]

Vandal Fan.

[jwcooper52]

no he has to be worse, at least the Vandals like football, or at least they used to, but this guy is obviously one who cannot appreciate the sports community

[Dunwyche]

@ApolloXVIII Well said. Being a Boise native, I could say alot here. But I'll spare everyone. I've like them since I was a kid, and they were nothing then. There was more Vandal stuff in Boise then. To me, 06 was vindication, a chance to stand up to them and say HA! God bless you friend.

D~

[mwoodin123]

one of my favorite videos on youtube!

[ApolloXVIII]

Thanks! Wait until you see my next one...I videoed my first ever trip to Boise!!!

[808stategangsta]

hahahahahahahaha to bad uhh!!! lol Hawaii beat Boise State lol!! haha i remember i was argueing with u ppl i dont know about hawaii beating bsu but today hawaii won 39-27!!

i proved u guys wrong

[iambronconation]

these guys rule! there is no better team than boise

[Fredrick703]

Dude, I heard you on the Broncos radio network today before the Broncos home game against the Spartans. Hope you enjoyed witnessing yet another Bronco victory on the blue. Hopefully you got to experience the night life after the game.

[ApolloXVIII]

Man it was so fun. I can't get over it...still beaming!!!

[bsusmymiddlename]

Do you know what section you are sitting in?

By the way I loved the video and I have shown all of my friends.

[bsusmymiddlename]

Have you been here to watch a game? If so when

[ApolloXVIII]

Nope. My first game is the San Jose State game in a couple weeks. I am STOKED!!!

[bsusmymiddlename]

you had to have watched the Nevada game!! It makes me love the broncos that much more. They dont like to lose and it shows.....

[ApolloXVIII]

Of course I watched it....I Freaking loved it.

[trev200808]

Hey i grew up born and raised in walking distance of boise state i think its asome what you did. and yess texas is alsome team but give it up bsu. and dude thats alsome with the wrist band.

[bjgrant62]

well, you said it was the greatest game ever played, but arguably. I beg to differ. Texas Tech's win over Minnesota has to be that game....

[ApolloXVIII]

Yeah that game had all kinds of implications. And BSU will be in the top 25. At the very top.

1. BSU

2. Appalachian State

3. LSU

4. Texas

5. Arkansas State

Hey...stranger things have happend.

;)

[tatertots00]

LSU sucks. boise rocks and will be undefeated at years end

[808stategangsta]

hahahahahahaha plz dey lost againts WASHINGOTON hahahahaha lol so much for being undefeated!! go HAWAII WAC CAMPS 07! AND HAWAII IS FAVORED TO BOISE

[tatertots00]

yea so what

[fbfanrazi]

Ya if La Tech can almost beat Hawaii, I'm not worried about a bunch of surfer boys and an overrated punk ass QB. So bring it Warriors, bring it. It'll be a repeat of last season, and the season before, Hawaii getting humiliated by BSU one more year.

[808stategangsta]

hey dumb ass its called home feild advantage r tard

[jaymanley1974]

hmm. I am a dumb ass and a retard? It s called manners, clam down dude. Look at the facts, Boise has beaten Hawaii in Hawaii several times. Hone field andvantage? Look at the facts buddy. Who's the dumb ass? I am just going by the facts.

[jaymanley1974]

hawaii is usually favored against BSU.  When was the last time UH beat Boise? I think in 1997, when they were in differnt leauges and BSU was a newbie in D-1 football.

[808stategangsta]

haha true true

but still i think hawaii will win =]

[ballified101]

Great Great and great! The love for our orange and blue has spread all the way to Houston. The love this small city has for its football team is more than anyone can imagine....we all bleed orange brother, welcome to the family! Just for giggles how much did you make off that thousand dollars you didnt have on that game??

[ApolloXVIII]

Hypothetically I would've gotten 3 and half to one. $3,500.

[654321tony123456]

Very well done and very well put together video. Passion is interesting, is it not?

[recklessr1]

This was freakin awesome! Well done. Glad you're a part of Bronco Nation.

[theMOfang]

My mom is a lot like you. We moved to id a few years back and ever since then she has grown to love bsu more and more. I don't know if she likes bsu more than mizzou nowadays but I know it's damn close. I like Boise State but I don't think I could ever love them like you *or my mom* do. You see, bsu wears blue. A color that is associated with a certain team that I wish humiliation on daily. A certain team that shall remain nameless. *cough*kansas*cough*

[ApolloXVIII]

You should really love your mom.

;)

[theMOfang]

Yea. I do, but sometimes that little bronco can make it a job. Then again most moms are like that. I guess it's just part of the fun.

[folkrockr]

This vid was very tastefully done. I'm an Austinite whose been living in Boise for abou 6 years now. Still a Longhorn, but the BSU/OU game was the best I've ever seen. It was nice that my adopted school stuck it to OU :-)

[ApolloXVIII]

It sure was! I was mortified that BSU might play UT.

[jaymanley1974]

love it. I was born and raised in Boise, and went to graduate school at BSU. I was there in 1986 when I was 12 for the first ever game on the blue turf. I blled boise blue as well. I lived in Houston in 2004-2005. People at my wrok made fun of me for my devotion to an abcure school that most people couldnt even find on a map. I would have loved to have meet you and your friend while I was in Houston.

[TheBobcreator]

go ornge go big blue fight fight fight BSU

[Freeskier55]

If your our best fans from houston why didn't you go to the game, there was a person from houston that was a bsu fan

[Freeskier55]

That is pretty cool, go BSU

[gakca0609]

The only the that I disagree with you on, is you said "arguably, the greatest game." I have watched over and over the greatest game, and to be honest, there isn't a close second. I was at the game, and it may seem biased as I am a BSU fan from Southern Idaho, but atop that I am a huge college football fan, the only reason it is not an easy number one is because it wasn't for a Championship. But if you are from a non-BCS Conference, you would know that it was for something greater.

[Smith4Heisman]

2002 fiesta bowl

[oregone]

What a neat video. Congrats on the bet.

[salivar06]

So, I am assuming you got all the BSU stuff straight from the Boise State bookstore? Or was one little sports store in Houston cool enough to stock BSU schwag eight years ago?

[ApolloXVIII]

Forever we would just wear blue and or orange. Then we made a Dimwiddie jersey out of a blue soccer over-shirt and old school iron-on lettering. The real stuff...the coffee mugs, banners, flags, golf tees, shirts, hats, all that crap I have bought at the theblueandorangestore , collegegear, and the book store.

[salivar06]

Also wasn't the money line in the game Oklahoma by 8?

[ApolloXVIII]

I had BSU +7.5 on a regular bet and the money line just meant BSU had to win but $1000 paid $3200 on that one.

[tatertots00]

your amazing boise is amazing and they WILL return to the BCS this season

[bjgrant62]

I don't think BSU will even be in the top 25 at years end...cinderella is done!

[durandrosarc]

How does your foot taste? Check the polls again after they beat Hawaii.

[bjgrant62]

Sorry, but I had to come back on this one. The polls are not out yet for the end of season, but I am pretty safe in saying BSU is not gonna be in the top 25. So, how does your foot taste? In all honesty, I like BSU, and my brother is a big fan. I just didn't feel they were a top 25 team, and I was right. They didn't beat Hawaii, which got stomped in it's bowl game with Georgia.

[durandrosarc]

You're only half right homeboy. Boise State did lose to Hawaii. Their system offense was effective against our FRESHMAN DB's. Georgia is a solid team, they deserve their win.

But the AP, ESPNU, BCS and USA Today polls still list BSU between #22 and #24 as of weeks 13 and 14. The remaining "championship game" tonight won't change things much either.

Maybe you should have asked me how my baby toe tastes?

[rustyshackleford918]

Bandwagon fan. He only went for BSU just because it was OU.

[ApolloXVIII]

Yeah that's it jerkoff.

[ngeier]

Hell ya BSU FTW...go orange go big blue fight fight BSU.!!!!! ya, where's that UI sux0r song anyway?

[TrapBoy4Life]

H-town 4 Life baby

[gtmiller7]

This clip made the local news on Boise's KTVB this morning....Welcom to Bronco Nation.....Go Ornge Go Blue fight fight BSU..... go to ktvb.c

[jhavogt]

Tomorrow when I fly to San Antonio, I will be wearing my blue and Orange with pride. Welcome to the Bronco Nation, brother. Now if we could just get a "Vandals Suck" song...

[boisestfan]

I agree about keeping the Hook'em Horns bracelet.

Let there be 2 bracelets.

No matter the shade, bleeding orange is bleeding orange.

Great video.

[Kryer98]

Wow, lucky for you Texas didn't win the Big 12 or it would've been the Horns playing the Broncos in the Fiesta Bowl. In any case, I expect to see a new "OU Sucks" video from you when Texas beats them for the 3rd straight year.

[ApolloXVIII]

I know I was FREAKING. A new OU Sucks song is of course coming this year.

[MaxBobcat]

what kind of odds you get on that bet?

[ApolloXVIII]

In Houston $1,000 paid $3200 on the money line.

[fbfanrazi]

Its cool that your a BSU fan now, but I say keep the Long Horns bracelet on with the Broncos right beside it. I'll now be a Texans fan once they play OU. P.S. OU sucks!

[ApolloXVIII]

I still have it. I am framing it.

[MaxBobcat]

this video is awesome. congrats!!

[mattboise]

ApolloXVIII...please check your messages. I sent you a message and need to contact you.

[RandomTask01]

This is more of what the broncos need. You should make another video, challenging other bronco fans from other states to make a video on their story in becoming a believer! I'm sure there are more out there. Bronco Nation, Assemble!

[tassleho]

This video put a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye. We welcome all Bronco faithful - long live the orange and blue!

[colbyj4ck]

BOOOOOOISE!!!!! STATE!!!!! regards from Boise ;)

[tatertots00]

boise rocks but i dont think they will ever replace dat orange and green

[Hornfan84]

only a hint of brokeback mountain

[ewe2oob]

Apollo,

You have created more than a little stir here in Boise. Sports talk shows, dozens of emails, and calls from friends all directed me to your video. Heart man, heart. I hear it... I feel it. Season ticket holder and Fiesta Bowl 2007 ticket holder. Wow. I still feel amazed. How can I get a better copy of this from you?

[ApolloXVIII]

thanks man, Absolutely email me at chance dot mcclain at gmail dot com.

[BOYCSTATE]

ApolloXVIII,

I am a Boise State season ticket holder and anytime you are in Boise and want to see a game contact, me a ticket is yours!

[ApolloXVIII]

I appreciate the offer. I work for the Texans during football so getting up there may prove tough...although

I could quit...hell I just might.

[knukldrager]

we here in Boise welcome the whole Nation to our Nation

[bsublue]

Awsome!! You are one of us! This cements you as a true Blue & Orange member. BSU South Baby!You're welcome in Boise any time.

[ApolloXVIII]

Thanks!

[jaywhy17]

Out-freaking-standing. An excellent video. Welcome to the nation.

[capnk8]

Longhorn by birth, Bronco by matriculation, applauding furiously over here. Irrefutably the best video ever.

Are those real contacts? Where did you get them? My email is my login name at gmail dot com.

[ApolloXVIII]

no I photoshopped them in. A lot of NFL teams have contacts but I don't know about colleges. I want some though.

[freezer34]

Welcome to the fold my brother, welcome to the fold...

[Rafter17]

Welcome home. =) Your video has spawned quite a discussion on BroncoCountry-dot-com... you should stop by and introduce yourself.

[ApolloXVIII]

done and done.

[iamchocolatemilk]

Wow, nice video man. I am pretty sure seeing an orange bracelet on a storm trooper brought a tear to my eye.

[ApolloXVIII]

lol. That is the funniest part of the video. So random...I love it. IT wouldn't be right without it.

[BeefZerkie]

One thing is for sure. If the next 10 years are like the last 10, you can't beat the ride! Bronco football is a thriller like no other! And they play with heart that is hard to find.

Welcome to the Nation, and go Broncos!

[steve29h]

AMAZING VIDEO! I grew up in Boise, graduated from BSU and moved to Austin about 5 years ago. I can tell you, definitively, that you are NOT alone. Many Austinites who couldn't point to Idaho on a map a year ago have traded in their orange for one that goes better with Blue. On a side note, I had $500 on the ML and $1,500 vs the spread on that game too. Where can I download this video!?!?

[ApolloXVIII]

email me and I'll send you a wmv of it. chance dot mcclain at gmail dot com.

[steve29h]

Sweet. They block YouTube at work and I know a bunch of people who would like to see this.

[hooknliberty]

been following the broncos since 78... your video brought a tear to my eye :) VIVA LOS BRONCOS!!!  LOVE THE VID!!!

[ApolloXVIII]

Thanks! It was fun! Can't wait for this year!

[droo31up]

Welcome to the Bronco Nation!

[celt902]

Awesome! Great video, great music. Welcome to the Bronco Nation! Go Broncos, Go Longhorns! ;-)

[StudService]

Let me tell you brother, you story touches me, and the bronco nation welcomes you. I'm glad you can finally see the light. . .

[blueturfbronco]

Don't worry man. Loving Boise State Football is much more worthwhile and understandable. Welcome to the BroncoNation.

[ApolloXVIII]

lol. Thanks man.

[TexasFight1991]

NO, I am right. You just jumped off of Texas to Boise as soon as they won the Fiesta Bowl, all you are is a bandwagon fan.

[ApolloXVIII]

They won the Fiesta Bowl? Are you shitting me? I stopped watching when OU dropped 15 on them to take the lead with 30 seconds left. wow! They won that game? Sweet!

[TexasFight1991]

When you bleed Burnt Orange, you bleed Burnt Orange for life. You obviously have no idea what that means.

[ApolloXVIII]

That's not true. Agree to disagree. But I am right.

[TexasFight1991]

pfft, traitor.

[ApolloXVIII]

Traitor? Hardly. Still love the horns. Just like BSU more.
