Rankings from The Sports Network I-AA Poll

The 1995 Boise State Broncos football team represented Boise State University in the 1995 NCAA Division I-AA football season, their last season in Division I-AA. The Broncos competed in the Big Sky Conference and played their home games on campus at Bronco Stadium in Boise, Idaho. Led by third-year head coach Pokey Allen, Boise State finished the season 7–4 overall and 4–3 in conference, ranked 21st in the final regular season poll.

Coming off a successful previous season of 13–2 and the runner-up in the national championship, BSU was ranked eighth in the preseason I-AA poll, and climbed to third after an opening victory at Division I-A Utah State. A three-game losing streak dropped them out of the poll by mid-season, after wide-margin losses to Montana and Northern Arizona.

After five consecutive wins, the Broncos climbed back to #16 prior to the regular season finale at rival Idaho, whom they defeated the previous year in Boise to break a twelve-game losing streak in the series. With a likely playoff berth on the line; BSU lost by twenty in the Kibbie Dome to end their season in a four-way tied for second place. Surging Idaho (6–4) was selected for the final at-large berth for the postseason, but was matched against top-ranked McNeese State in southwest Louisiana and made a quick exit.
