Former Bison play-by-play man, Bob Behler, who many of you remember, has moved from his job at UMass to become the new voice of Boise State football and basketball. For any graduates of that era, the second link below has a full 2 1/2 hour Behler broadcast of the 1988 football game between the Bison and Penn (won by Penn 38-35).

Another Behler article from Boise:

I hadn't really counted the years, but the article says Bob was the voice of the Bison from 1986-99.

Behler called his 1000th college basketball game the other night. Not sure how many were Bison games, but he was here from 1986-99.

He got a great game for #1000, with Boise State coming from 18 back in the final 3:40 for an overtime win over Utah State. At the start of that run, their win probability was 0.2% (Pomeroy).

After driving back from Lehigh at Bucknell, we put the end of that Utah State game on TV and synched it up with his radio broadcast. A dandy!

Watch how Boise State forced overtime when they were down 5 with 8.9 seconds to go:

By the way, Bison137 no doubt set a new board record for elapsed time between posts on a given thread.
