Horton has a hoot as he ties NCAA record for fumble-return touchdowns

Boise State senior cornerback Tyler Horton felt right at home sitting in the Broncos’ new Turnover Throne.

Honoring the defense’s mantra of the “Kings of Chaos,” Horton had a hand in an interception and two fumble recoveries on Saturday night in the 56-20 win over Troy.

“Oh it’s real comfortable,” Horton said. “I could get used to that one.”

Horton scored on both fumbles he picked up, the first a 55-yard return in the third quarter after safety Kekoa Nawahine popped the ball into the air. Then he scored from 11 yards out in the fourth quarter off a sack by defensive end Durrant Miles.
