The first meeting between the two schools ended with Boise taking the win. Boise State would take the early lead with a fumble recovery from Tanner Vallejo for a touchdown. Boise State would trail in the second quarter 7–10, but Boise State QB Grant Hedrick would throw a touchdown pass to Matt Miller to take the lead again. UConn would close the gap to 3 points in the third quarter and headed into the fourth quarter trailing by 3, but Jonathan Moxey made a key fourth quarter interception, stepping in front of UConn's Deshon Foxx at the UConn 37-yard line. That led to a 9-yard touchdown pass from Hedrick to Miller in the back of the end zone. Boise State would get their second interception with four minutes left in the fourth quarter, this time by Donte Deayon who ripped the ball from receiver Geremy Davis and ran 50 yards down the right sideline for the score thus sealing a 38–21 Boise State victory.^[2]
