BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Boise State has not often trailed this season, and going down 7-0 early at home irked the Broncos. So on fourth-and-goal from the 1 in the first quarter, the Broncos kept their offense on the field and tied the game with quarterback Jared Zabransky's dash around the right side. "That was a huge momentum swing for us," said Zabransky after No. 20 Boise State went to overwhelm Louisiana Tech 55-14 on Saturday.
