Boise State football season performance

Overview

Boise State entered its bye week with a 5-1 record, tied for the lead in the Pac-12 alongside Oregon State. During this period, the team was considered a top favorite among Group of Six teams to reach the College Football Playoff, supported by a strong rushing attack.

By early November, the team improved to a 7-1 record and a 4-0 standing in the Pac-12, fueled by a seven-game winning streak. This performance resulted in Boise State being ranked No. 25 in the first edition of the College Football Playoff rankings, making them the only Group of Six team included in the initial list. While the team maintained an elite run defense and national rushing leader Dylan Riley, concerns were noted regarding pass defense and the availability of starting quarterback Maddux Madsen.
