Needing to look good, Broncos do just that

BOISE, IDAHO - Pollsters who help decide the BCS want style points. Well, Boise State sure looked beautiful in -- and on -- blue.

Kellen Moore threw four touchdown passes to Austin Pettis and tied a career high with five overall, and the supposedly endangered, No. 6 Broncos beat Idaho 63-25 on Saturday.

Titus Young had a 100-yard kickoff return and Kyle Wilson returned an interception 71 yards for another score for the big-play Broncos (10-0, 5-0 WAC), who beat the rival Vandals (7-4, 4-3) for the 11th consecutive time.

Recent close victories on national television had put Boise State behind Texas Christian in the BCS rankings, and only the higher ranked non-BCS school has a chance to crash the megabucks series. But this one wasn't close.
