Bronco Football Team Gets 600th School Win

I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that with Boise State's 400 wins as a four-year school, they were one win away from their 600th school win.  It took a week longer than we were all hoping, but they got it.

This is not the summary I promised that is forthcoming, but it rather shows the year-by-year Bronco record:
