Chris Petersen said it was simply a gut feeling that it was time to take on a new challenge by leaving Boise State for Washington. Petersen said he's constantly been asked why he finally left Boise State after eight years as the Broncos head coach. Petersen was 92-12 at Boise State, including five conference titles and two Fiesta Bowl victories. He replaces Steve Sarkisian, who was 34-29 in five seasons at Washington before taking the job at USC.
