Boise State football has surged to a season‑high No. 17 in the Associated Press Top 25 poll, according to Kidotalk Radio. The Broncos now sit ahead of traditional powerhouses such as Ohio State and Ole Miss, and even outrank the University of Oregon, the only team that has defeated them this year.
The Broncos entered the season with a single loss – an away game against Oregon in their opening matchup – and have since compiled an eight‑win winning streak. The most recent victory came against Colorado State over the past weekend, reinforcing Boise State’s momentum as the team prepares for its next challenge.
Adding to the excitement, Boise will host ESPN College GameDay this weekend, the first time the high‑profile broadcast has visited the city since 2010. The event is expected to draw thousands of fans and bring national attention to the Boise community, underscoring the Broncos’ rising profile on the college football landscape.
Local supporters are hopeful that the Broncos will capitalize on the spotlight in their upcoming home game against Pac‑12 rival Oregon State. A strong performance could bolster Boise State’s résumé for a potential berth in the College Football Playoffs, where the Broncos are currently viewed as a favorite among the six‑team Group of 6.
What’s next: Boise State will face Oregon State this weekend at Albertsons Stadium. Fans and residents are encouraged to attend the game and the accompanying College GameDay festivities, which promise a weekend of high‑energy college football celebration in Boise.
