GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) _ Boise State proved it belongs in the BCS.
After tying it with seven seconds to go in regulation, the Number 9 Broncos stunned Number 7 Oklahoma 43-to-42 in overtime, winning on Ian Johnson's 2-point conversion run after receiver Vinny Perretta threw a fourth-down touchdown pass to Derek Schouman.
The Sooners had taken a 42-to-35 lead on Adrian Peterson's 25-yard run.
On the decisive play, Broncos quarterback Jared Zabransky looked at three wide receivers to his right, then handed the ball behind his back to Johnson, who raced untouched into the end zone.
In one of the more dramatic finishes in BCS history, the Sooners and the Broncos combined for 22 points in the final 86 seconds of regulation.
