Boise State Vs. Louisiana Tech: Doug Martin Puts The Broncos On The Board

And we're off, Kellen Moore is not a rushing quarterback, but on the Broncos' first play from scrimmage he scrambles out right with a defender clamped on his leg to complete an 8-yard pass to Austin Pettis down the sideline. His second pass is considerably more effective, 33 yards to Tyler Shoemaker.

And then they're slowed. After a couple short (for the Broncos) rushes from Doug "Muscle Hamster" Martin, they're held to a kicking position. Boise State's starting kicker is injured. His backup, Jimmy Pavel, misses wide right on a 30-yard field goal attempt. It's the fIrst time all season the Broncos haven't scored on their first possession.

They'll get it right back, however, after the Bulldogs convert one set of downs but are halted by a sack on Ross Jenkins. Right away, Pettis catches a 20-yard pass, but it's five Martin rushes that put the points on the board, ending with a two-yard touchdown push.

With 7:12 remaining in the first quarter, Boise State leads Louisiana Tech, 7-0.
