"Just got my copy today and have been re-enjoying the game. Like everyone says, a great game that every college football fan should at least watch if not own(even if you're not a fan of either team). The 4th qtr and overtime are arguably worth the asking price by itself(great comebacks by both teams!). Fortunately though, you get the entire game plus a few extras.
"Bonus Features" include:
* post game- celebration, interviews, marriage proposal, and trophy presentation. (not sure why this is in the bonus section instead of just letting it play out after the game was done though)
* short cuts- condensed version of the fox broadcast. for those who want the cliff notes on the game.
* player profiles- just a pictorial roster line-up of each team.
* fight song- Boise State's fight song sing-along(lyrics provided).
* in the trenches- "great plays from 'in the trenches' during BS's/OU's 2006 seasons".
* radio edit- "game highlights with the hometown radio calls"
Overall, a quality release; and it visually looks better than last year's USC vs Texas Rose Bowl dvd(see people's reviews for that release). But both games come highly recommended. This will help tide you over till the 2007 season starts up(i miss college football already).

Great Cap To A Great Season Of Football

"I am a football nut and this game was by far the best bowl game I have ever witnessed in my forty something years on this planet. Certainly it was one of the best I have ever seen. Many people saw this already legendary game with the insanely wild ride for the last two minutes, but far more of you missed it thinking it would be a route by Oklahoma. Here is your chance to indulge in this highly entertaining game in its entirety. I believe this will be one of those games I will want to watch every few years just to remember how great this past football season has really been on every level."
Best game ever!!!

"im not a real boise state fan seeing as i live in ky, but i am a huge fan of college sports. i watched the boise state game against oklahoma in the fiesta bowl, and it almost gave me a heart attack. of course i was rooting for boise state just because they were the underdog. i dont even remember if i slept that night after that game. i have been watching for several years, and it is possibly the best college football game of our time. if you are thinking about buying this, quit thinking, and just buy it. i promise you wont be disappointed."
A must-have for Boise State fans

"The four stars is for the DVD, which is merely okay--it has the full game, minus commercials, but it's the 4:3 version, and I don't understand why they didn't use the 16:9 version since the game was shot in that ratio. The game itself goes far beyond five stars, of course. (The Johnson-Popadics marriage proposal is in the extras, by the way.)"
