BOISE, Idaho — Max Komar made a
sliding 16-yard touchdown catch with 4 seconds left and Nathan Enderle
passed to Preston Davis for the 2-point conversion, lifting Idaho to a
dramatic 43-42 victory over Bowling Green in Wednesday night's
Humanitarian Bowl.
The Falcons took a 42-35 lead with 32
seconds left on a 51-yard pass from Tyler Sheehan to Freddie Barnes,
who slipped behind the Idaho secondary for his 17th catch of the game
and No. 155 in his NCAA record-setting season.
But Idaho answered with a 50-yard
heave from Enderle to Davis that got the ball to the Bowling Green 16.
After an incompletion with 8 seconds left, Enderle found Komar — who
had dropped a number of passes — in the middle of the field, and he
slid to cradle the low pass.
Coach Robb Akey then decided to go for the 2-point conversion and Enderle threw to Davis alone in the back of the end zone.
