A Look at the Fiesta Bowl
It’s hard to imagine passing up Fiesta Bowl tickets. In recent years the Fiesta
Bowl has put on quite a show, keeping fans glued to their seats in University of
Phoenix Stadium. Need some evidence? Let’s take a look at what Fiesta Bowl
tickets delivered in 2007.
The Oklahoma Sooners came into the Fiesta Bowl riding an 121-2 record and the
legs of Adrian Peterson. The Boise State Broncos were just as hot, sporting a
12-0 record and raising speculation as to their shot at playing for a BCS
National Championship. As the game progresses all indications were that Oklahoma
would come out on top as they led 35-28 with a little over a minute to play.
Boise State was staggering, having blown a third quarter lead of 18 points. With
the Sooner defense on the field it looked like Oklahoma would make Fiesta Bowl
tickets a Sooner souvenir.
But the Boise State Broncos had other ideas. Fiesta Bowl tickets holders watched
in amazement as the Broncos executed a hook and ladder play that went 50 yards
and tied the game up with only seven seconds left on the clock. Oklahoma opened
the overtime with a 50 yard scamper by Adrian Peterson, then let the future NFL
pick cap off the drive with a 25-yard run to take a 42-35 lead in overtime.
Boise State answered with a touchdown pass from Vinny Perretta to Derek Schouman
to pull within a point. The monumental decision to go for the win made Fiesta
Bowl history as Boise State reached into the trick bag, pulled out the old
Statue of Liberty play, and scored on a run by tailback Ian Johnson.

Oklahoma Sooners Fiesta Bowl tickets
After a year filled with turmoil, Oklahoma fans have been snatching up Fiesta
Bowl tickets in record numbers. Before the season, Oklahoma dismissed starting
quarterback Rhett Bomar for violating NCAA policy. Then, the Sooners got hosed
in a loss to Oregon, during which an instant replay official failed to overturn
a call on the field. The official later admitted he missed the call. If that
wasn’t enough, star running back Adrian Peterson fractured his collarbone in a
mid-season victory over Iowa State. Yet, throug it all, Sooner coach Bob Stoops
has kept his team together. They rebounded from a tough loss to Texas to win
eight straight games, including knocking off Nebraska in the Dr. Pepper Big 12
Championship Game to punch the Sooners’ ticket to the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.
In what could be his final collegiate performance, Peterson is expected to play
for the Sooners against Boise State.
Boise State Broncos Fiesta Bowl tickets
One of only two undefeated teams left in the nation, Boise State becomes only
the second school from a non-BCS conference to play in a BCS bowl. The Broncos,
under first-year head coach Chris Peterson, roared through the WAC, knocking off
Pac 10 foe Oregon State along the way. Quarterback Jared Zabransky has bolstered
the Broncos’ explosive offense, tossing a whopping 20 touchdowns.
Oklahoma’s not the only team with a star running back, either. Boise State’s Ian
Johnson is the best back you’ve never heard of. Change that by picking up
Tostitos Fiesta Bowl tickets from ABCTickets.com.
Past Fiesta Bowl ticket info - ND vs OSU
The hype has begun. Fiesta Bowl tickets are going fast. That's because the Notre
Dame Fighting Irish and the Ohio State Buckeyes will square off on January 2, at
Tempe, Arizona's Sun Devil Stadium in the 2005 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. It's a
match-up of two of college football's most storied programs. From Archie Griffin
to Eddie George the Buckeyes have their legends. And Notre Dame has theirs with
names like Joe Montana and Rocket Ismail. The Irish are looking to get back on
top. The Buckeyes don't want to take a step back. Notre Dame and quarterback
Brady Quinn loves to air it out. Ohio State rallies around a hard-hitting
defense, led by linebacker A.J. Hawk.
On the sidelines, two of college football’s best coaches will be going toe to
toe. After leading the New England Patriots to three Super Bowl titles, Charlie
Weis returned to South Bend and instantly reestablished Notre Dame football as
one of nation's elite programs. Jim Tressel's Buckeyes know all about being one
of the nation's elite. The last time Ohio State visited the Fiesta Bowl, they
left as 2003 BCS National Champions. Notre Dame hasn't sniffed those heights
since Lou Holtz was roaming the Irish sidelines. Their last visit to the Fiesta
Bowl wasn't a pleasant experience, as Chad Johnson and the Oregon State Beavers
gave them a historic beating in 2001.
But with Weis at the helm, this is a different Irish team, one that can erase
deficits in the blink of an eye. Just ask the defending national champion USC
Trojans, who had their closest call in two years this October in South Bend. The
potent combination of Quinn and lanky wide out Jeff Samardzija is hard to stop.
But if any defense is up to the task, it's the Buckeyes' D.
While OSU's defense is doing its thing, quarterback Troy Smith and Tressel's
balanced scheme will be trying to keep the ball out of Notre Dame’s hands. Long,
time-consuming drives will be on the menu for the Buckeyes. Can Notre Dame's
sometimes-shaky defense get the Buckeyes off the field? Which team will prove
worthy of their BCS bid? The buzz around Fiesta Bowl tickets will be at fever
pitch by the time the calendar turns to the New Year. Get a jumpstart on your
New Year's resolution. Don't wait till it’s too late. Get your 2006 Tostitos
Fiesta Bowl tickets now.
