Kellen Moore Tied his career high with five touchdown passes, three to fill-in full-back Dan Paul, and the Well. 6 Broncos remained undefeated with a 44-33 victory over Nevada on Friday night.
With executives with the Sugar, Fiesta and Orange bowls watching - and hearing fans' chants of "BCS! BCS!" Through the rain and cold - the Broncos (12-0, 7-0 WAC) withstood the Wolf Pack's rally from 24 points down in the first half.
Boise State, sixth in the latest BCS, but far from a lock you earn a bid to the marquee bowls, led 34-26 entering the fourth quarter before Moore's fifth scoring pass, to brother Kirby, clinched its 24th consecutive regular-season win.
"We've taken care of what we can control - and we're excited for what ever happens," Kellen Moore said. "At the same time, we can not control (the BCS)."
Vai Taua had 160 yards Rushing has 24 carries for Nevada (8-4, 7-1), which had averaged 52 points pr game while winning eight straight. The Wolf Pack lost for the 10th consecutive time to Boise State.
Doug Martin ran for 128 yards on 16 carries for the Broncos, who locked up at least a share of their seventh WAC championship in eight seasons. They have one more home date against lowly New Mexico State before the BCS bids are announced next weekend.
"Let's hope the system should work like it should," Broncos coach Chris Petersen said on the field immediately after the game.
