Forsey was also the last player to carry the ball more than 29 times a game when he had 31 carries for 105 yards against Hawaii on Oct. 5, 2002. Johnson had 27 carries at New Mexico State. JOHNSON ALREADY ASSAULTING SINGLE SEASON RECORDS AT BOISE STATE: Ian Johnson already ranks in the top 15 in rushing and scoring in a single season at Boise State, while ranking third in rushing touchdowns and seventh in total touchdowns.

Johnson eclipsed the 100-yard mark for the third consecutive game against Hawaii. With 178 yards against the Warriors, 119 yards against Wyoming and 240 yards against Oregon State, Johnson was the first tailback to rush for 100 yards or more in three straight games since Brock Forsey did it in six consecutive games in 2002. Forsey s six 100-plus yard games came against Hawaii (105), Tulsa (208), Fresno State (132), San Jose State (166), UTEP (114) and Rice (168). JOHNSON FIRST BRONCO TO RUSH FOR TWO 50-YARD PLUS TOUCHDOWNS IN SAME GAME SINCE 1988: In addition to the number of other things Johnson did against Oregon State, the Bronco tailback became the first Boise State player to rush for two touchdowns of more than 50 yards in one game since Chris Thomas did it against Weber State on Oct. 1, 1988, when he had a 50-yard touchdown and a 55-yard touchdown. Johnson s two touchdown jaunts of 59 and 50 yards. Thomas finished with 200 yards rushing on 21 carries, while Johnson had 240 yards on 22 carries. JOHNSON S BIG GAME MAKES MARK IN BOISE STATE RECORD BOOKS: Johnson s assault on Oregon State also was an assault on Boise State s record books. The Bronco tailback moved into the Bronco record books in touchdowns in a game (tied for 1st), rushing (third), yards per carry (10th) and all-purpose yards (tied for ninth).

On the season he is second on the team in rushing with 190 yards on 30 carries (6.3 ypc) and sixth in receiving with six catches for 88 yards. He had a 33-yard touchdown catch out of the backfield at New Mexico State. QUINTON JONES FINDS END ZONE FOUR DIFFERENT WAYS DURING CAREER: Senior cornerback/kick returner has a knack for finding the end zone, wherever Bronco coaches put him. Jones picked off a Wyoming pass on Sept.
12th add/fact sheet: boise state vs. idaho 10 and returned it 61 yards for a touchdown. The interception return for a TD marked the fourth different way Jones has scored during his career. He started his career at Boise State on offense and has four career rushing touchdowns, three during his sophomore year and one as a junior, and one career receiving touchdown. Last season he moved into the role of being the team s primary return man and responded with three punt returns for touchdowns. QUINTON JONES NAMED PRESEASON ALL-AMERICA AS PUNT RETURNER: Senior cornerback/punt returner Quinton Jones earned some serious pre-season recognition when he was named Pre-Season All-America by Blue Ribbon College Football Yearbook. Jones claimed the award after having a stellar season returning kicks as a junior. He was named a Second-Team All- America after last season by The Sporting News and Honorable Mention All-American by SI.com after returning three kicks for touchdowns and finishing the season with a school-record 20.9 yard per punt return average. QUINTON JONES THIRD IN COUNTRY IN ACTIVE PUNT RETURN TOUCHDOWNS: Jones earned the All-America recognition thanks in part to the three punts he returned for touchdowns last season. Jones had a pair of school-record 92- yard punt returns against Hawaii and Boston College (in the MPC Computers Bowl) and a 73-yard return for a touchdown against Idaho. His three career returns for a touchdown trail only Ryne Robinson (7) of Miami (OH) and Ted Ginn (6) of Ohio State.

VERSATILITY, OFFENSIVE LINEMAN JEFF CAVENDER STARTING AT THIRD POSITION IN THREE YEARS: Junior offensive lineman Jeff Cavender may be doing something nobody has done in a very long time in college football. The Elko, Nevada native is the starter at right guard for the Broncos. For Cavender it is the third different position he has been in the starting lineup at in his three seasons as a starter at Boise State. As a freshman Cavender started all 12 of Boise State s games at right tackle. With the emergence of this year s starting left tackle Ryan Clady, Cavender moved to center as a sophomore where he started all 13 games. Now, because of an injury to his twin brother, Pete, and the emergence of Jadon Dailey at center, Cavender starts at right guard for the Broncos. While Boise State starts three players who started on the offensive line last season, only Tad Miller plays the same position as last season. In addition to Cavender s move to guard, Clady moved from starting right tackle to left tackle. JEFF CAVENDER CHANGES NUMBER TO HONOR INJURED TWIN BROTHER PETE: Jeff Cavender will be wearing a familiar number this season, the only thing is it isn t familiar to Cavender. The junior starting guard switched from number 54 to number 64 to honor his twin brother Pete, who normally wears 64 but will miss the season with an Achilles injury. Jeff, who is listed in the media guide as number 54, surprised his brother wearing the number in the season opener against Sacramento State. He will wear 64 the remainder of the season. STREAKING RECEIVERS: With three catches against New Mexico State, senior Jerard Rabb extended his streak of consecutive games with a catch to 20 games. Fellow senior Legedu Naanee had two catches for 36 yards, extending his streak of consecutive games with a reception to 17 games. Seniors Derek Schouman and Drisan James both extended their streaks to four games. Naanee has had multiple receptions in 17 consecutive games, while James (5), Schouman (4) and Rabb (2) have also had multiple receptions in consecutive games. DRISAN JAMES NEEDS TWO RECEPTIONS AT IDAHO TO REACH 100 CATCH MILESTONE: Senior Drisan James caught two passes against New Mexico State to edge closer to the 100-career catch milestone. James now has 98 career catches and needs just four at New Mexico State to become the first Bronco since T.J. Acree in 2004 to top the 100-catch mark.

The Bronco safety has three interceptions this season after picking off five passes as a sophomore and one as a freshman. Not only does he pick off passes, but he has made a habit of making something happen after the interception. He ranks in the top five in both career interception return yards and season interception return yards. He is third in career return yards with 235 and fifth in single-season return yards with 142 this year. TADMAN S 98-YARD INTERCEPTION RETURN SECOND LONGEST IN SCHOOL HISTORY: Marty Tadman s 98-yard interception return for a touchdown against Louisiana Tech was the second longest interception return in Boise State history.

Things look to be different this season. Seniors Andrew Browning and Dennis Ellis have been play makers through the Broncos first five games. Browning, a three-year starter leads Boise State in sacks and tackles for loss with 5.0 of each. He ranks second in the WAC in sacks and 31st in the country. Browning is eighth on the team with 23 total tackles. He had 35 as a sophomore and 31 as a junior. Ellis addition has given the defense a big boost. After battling injuries for much of the spring and fall, Ellis is finally healthy and making an impact. After seeing limited time in the season opener against Sacramento State, Ellis moved into the starting lineup against Oregon State. He responded with a career-high seven tackles. He bettered that with eight tackles at Wyoming, had five tackles against Hawaii, three against Utah, five against Louisiana Tech with a sack, and then had three tackles and a sack at New Mexico State.

STRINGER BREAKS 35-YEAR OLD RECORD: Boise State punter Kyle Stringer broke the single-game record that has stood the longest in the Boise State record books against Wyoming when he averaged 50.1 yards on his seven punts against the Cowboys. Stringer broke the old single game punt average record of 49.8 yards per punt set by Eric Guthrie against Idaho State in 1971. The only single-game school record that is longer was Guthrie s five field goals in a single game against Northern Arizona in 1971, the week before the Idaho State game.

19th add/fact sheet: boise state vs. idaho Boise State Head Coach - Chris Petersen After five seasons as the offensive coordinator at Boise State, Chris Petersen was promoted to head coach on January 1, 2006. The 41-year old Petersen became the school s ninth head coach in the 38-year history of Bronco football. His promotion to head coach was well deserved. In five seasons as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach under Dan Hawkins, Petersen was twice (2002 and 2004) a finalist for the prestigious Broyles Award, which honors the nation s top assistant coach. During his five seasons leading the Bronco offense, the Broncos boasted the top scoring offense in the country averaging 41.6 points per game, while also finishing as the nation s top scoring team twice (2002 and 2003). Boise State also finished second (2004), ninth (2005) and 18th (2001) in scoring with Petersen as the offensive coordinator. Under Petersen s guidance leading the offense, Boise State has sported one of the most balanced offenses in the country. The Broncos have finished in the top 15 in total offense four times including three top 10 finishes--first in 2002, fourth in 2004 and seventh in 2003. The Broncos have four top 20 finishes in passing during that time, including a high ranking of fifth in 2003. The Broncos have ranked in the top 25 in the country in rushing three of the last four seasons, including 14th in 2004 and 15th this season. Petersen also developed a pair of Bronco quarterbacks who have ranked among the nation s most accurate passers. Ryan Dinwiddie (2001-03) finished as the NCAA career passing efficiency leader with a rating of 168.19. Dinwiddie had a careerbest 188.18 ranking in 2002 that would have set an NCAA single season record if he played in one more game. He also had a 164.69 rating in 2001 and a 163.72 rating in 2003, both good enough for fourth in the country. finished 13th in the nation in passing efficiency in 2004 with a 146.99 rating. Boise State has also had a player in the top 10 in Points Responsible For in three of the last five seasons, as well as one in the top 25 in each of Petersen s five seasons. Dinwiddie was second in 2003 and sixth in 2001, running back Brock Forsey was 10th in 2002 and Zabransky was 14th in 2004 and 25th in 2005. In 2005 Petersen helped Boise State to its fourth straight WAC championship, the longest current league title streak in the country (tied with USC). Three of Petersen s offensive players were named either first or second team All-WAC highlighted by Daryn Colledge s second straight selection to the first team. Running back Lee Marks and wide receiver Drisan James were named to the second team. The Bronco offense led the WAC in rushing and finished second in the league in scoring. In 2004 Petersen helped Zabransky pick up where Dinwiddie left off. The sophomore earned second-team All-WAC honors while leading the Broncos to their first undefeated regular season in the history of the school as a four-year institution. He was also named WAC Player of the Week twice, following wins over Oregon State and Hawai i. Zabransky was one of seven Broncos to either earn firstteam, second-team or honorable mention All-WAC recognition in 2004. Wide receiver T.J. Acree and Colledge both were named to the All-WAC first team. Zabransky and center Klayton Adams were named second-team All-WAC; while wide receiver Drisan James, Marks, and tight end Andy Weldon were honorable mention All-WAC. Dinwiddie was just one of five players to find a spot on the All-WAC team in 2003 under Petersen. In addition to Dinwiddie, Tim Gilligan earned first-team All-WAC honors as a wide receiver, while Colledge was second-team All-WAC on the offensive line and running back David Mikell and wide receiver Jerry Smith were honorable-mention selections. During his time at Boise State, Petersen has seen his players rewrite the Bronco record books. Dinwiddie is the all-time passing yards leader, single season passing yards leader, and career pass efficiency leader. Forsey, who played for Petersen for two years, is the single season rushing leader at Boise State, as well as the single season and career touchdown leader. Gilligan and Billy Wingfield rank one and two on the single-season receiving yards list, while Gilligan is second on the single season receptions list. Lawrence Bady set a new school record in 2003 with an average of 25.0 yards per reception and also holds the career record for average yards per catch with 20.20 yards per catch. In 2004 the Broncos finished second in the nation in total offense, but set a school record scoring 48.9 points per game, 3.3 more points per game than the old record set in 2002. The Broncos finished in the top 20 in the country in five different categories and in the top five in two. In addition to finishing second in scoring, the Broncos were fourth in total offense (492.67 yards per game), 11th in pass efficiency (146.34), 14th in rushing offense (229.83 yards per game), and 20th in passing offense (262.83 yards per game). Boise State s offense topped the WAC in five separate categories in 2004 under Petersen. The Broncos were number one in scoring offense, total offense, pass efficiency, first downs and red zone offense. Boise State was second in rushing offense, time of possession, while ranking third in the league in pass offense and third-down conversions. The 2003 season marked the second straight year the Bronco offense led the country in scoring under Petersen. Boise State averaged 43.00 points per game, while also ranking in the top seven in three other categories. The Broncos were third in passing efficiency at 159.76, fifth in passing offense with 336.29 yards per game, and seventh in total offense averaging 486.36 yards per game. Boise State was also either first or second in the WAC in six separate categories. The Broncos led the league in scoring offense, pass efficiency, and third-down conversions (43.1 percent). Petersen took the Bronco offense to new heights in 2002. After leading the offense to three top 20 national rankings in 2001, he engineered the Bronco offense into five top 20 rankings including three national leaders. Boise State led the country in scoring offense averaging 45.6 points per game, total offense averaging 501.5 yards per game, and passing efficiency with a rating of 169.4. The Broncos were also 12th in passing offense, 14th in fewest interceptions, and 22nd in rushing. Boise State s offense was even more dominating in the WAC under Petersen. Boise State led the league in five categories (scoring, total offense, pass efficiency, red zone offense, and fewest interceptions), was second in three others (rushing offense, first
20th add/fact sheet: boise state vs. idaho downs, and fourth down conversions), and was fourth in one more (passing offense). Individually, players got the chance to put up big numbers in the Bronco offense under Petersen. Running back Forsey was named the WAC Offensive Player of the Year after leading the country in scoring, finishing fifth in all-purpose yards, and 11th in rushing (he led the WAC in all three categories). Quarterbacks Dinwiddie and B.J. Rhode combined to lead the country in passing efficiency, while wide receivers Wingfield, Lou Fanucchi, and Jay Swillie made assaults on the Bronco record book. In all, seven Bronco offensive players earned All-WAC honors with Forsey, Dinwiddie, center Scott Huff, and guard Rob Vian all finding spots on the first team. In 2001 under Petersen, the Boise State offense finished in the Top 20 in three separate categories. The Broncos were 14th in total offense, 18th in scoring offense, and 20th in passing offense. In addition Peterson had three players named first-team All-WAC and two players drafted by NFL teams. Petersen s tutelage of Dinwiddie was instrumental in Boise State s offensive success. Petersen helped Dinwiddie develop from a sophomore quarterback with no career starts, to the fourth most efficient quarterback in the country in 2001. Dinwiddie also finished fifth in the country in Points Responsible for, 11th in total offense, and 29th in passing. Petersen came to Boise State from the University of Oregon where he joined the coaching staff in 1995, and immediately helped contribute to a passing attack that ranked among the nation s elite each of the six seasons he served as wide receivers coach. Twice during Petersen s stay at Oregon, offensive teams he was linked to broke the school record for single season passing yards, and three times in the same time period the Ducks broke the single season school record for most touchdowns. In the process, Petersen had a hand in the development of four of Oregon s top six all-time receivers. Prior to working at Oregon, Petersen served as the quarterbacks coach at Portland State University in 1993 and 1994, helping the Vikings advance to the NCAA Division II playoffs both seasons. In 1992, Petersen also guided the quarterbacks at the University of Pittsburgh. That season, the Panthers established a school record for passing yards and ranked eighth nationally in total offense and passing. In addition, he contributed to the development of first-team All-Big East Conference quarterback Alex Van Pelt, who eclipsed the school s passing yardage totals previously held by Dan Marino. Petersen s success as a coach can be directly linked to a record-setting career as a quarterback at his Alma mater, U.C. Davis. He was named the Northern California Athletic Conference Player of the Year as a senior and was the top rated Division II quarterback in the nation. Petersen received second team Kodak Division II All-American honors while at U.C. Davis and still holds the Division II record for career pass completion at 69.6 percent. After receiving his bachelor s degree in Psychology from U.C. Davis in 1988, Petersen started his coaching career at Davis, serving as the head freshmen coach in 1987-1988, and the receivers coach from 1989-1991. Petersen also holds a master s degree in Education Psychology from U.C. Davis. He and his wife, Barbara, are the parents of two sons, Jack (11) and Sam (8).

22nd add/fact sheet: boise state vs. idaho The Last Meeting Boise State 70, Idaho 35 November 19, 2005 - Bronco Stadium - Boise, Idaho Boise State scored 35 straight points in the second half to break open a close game en route to a 70-35 win over Idaho at Bronco Stadium. It was the sixth consecutive win for the Broncos over the Vandals. Tied with Idaho 21-21 midway through the third quarter, the Boise State defense came up with a big play to regain the momentum as well as the lead. Idaho faced a third-and-four from their own 47 looking to take the lead. Instead, linebacker Colt Brooks came on a blitz, stripped Idaho quarterback Steven Wichman of the ball and watched as Austin Smith scooped up the loose ball and raced 39 yards for a touchdown. Boise State led 28-21 and never looked back. The Broncos rallied behind big plays from the special teams and defense. Smith s touchdown was one of three non-offensive touchdowns scored by the Broncos. Punt returner had a huge day for the Broncos. The junior cornerback returned a punt 73 yards for a touchdown and scored on a 50-yard reverse in his only play on offense. Jones finished with a school record 143 punt return yards, while producing 247 all-purpose yards (50 rushing, 54 kickoff return and 143 punt return). Boise State also scored on an interception when true freshman Orlando Scandrick picked off a Wichman pass and returned it 50 yards for a touchdown to give the Broncos a 56-21 lead. The win allowed Boise State to run its home winning streak to 31 games. The streak is tied for the 12th longest in Division I history with Texas A&M (1990-95) and is also tied for the seventh longest in modern day history (since 1937). Boise State also set a series record by scoring 70 points against the Vandals, while also scoring the third-most points in school history. Boise State scored 77 points against San Jose State in 2003 and 74 against Humboldt State in 1986. Boise State s 35 points in the fourth quarter also is the second most in school history in a single quarter. The Broncos scored 39 last season in the third quarter against Hawai i, while scoring 35 against Weber State in 1976. Individually, Lee Marks led the Broncos with 102 yards rushing and a 39-yard touchdown on just nine carries. The 100-yard night was Marks second of the season. He also had 110 yards on four kickoff returns. Jerard Rabb had 69 yards on three catches to lead the Broncos in receiving. Brooks led the Broncos with eight tackles, a sack, a forced fumble and an interception. Scandrick had five tackles, a sack, an interception and two pass breakups.
