Boise State HC on Ashton Jeanty’s 4 touchdowns: RB “Relentless…puts his team on his back” | News, results, highlights, statistics and rumors

It was another incredible performance for the junior, who also rushed for 267 yards and six touchdowns in the season-opening win over Georgia Southern and then rushed for 192 yards and three scores the following week against Oregon.

He nearly led the Broncos to an upset win over the Ducks, as the Big Ten team needed a fourth-quarter comeback to escape with a 37-34 win.

And he puts those numbers up against quality competition, as Oregon is a potential national title contender while Washington State was 4-0 heading into Saturday’s game.

The star running back wasted no time on Saturday, setting the tone with a 64-yard touchdown run on the game’s first possession. He also helped decide the game with a 59-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter, using a combination of strength and speed to overcome arm tackles and get past the second and third levels of defense.

Boise State is now 3-1 on the season and could play its way into the CFP discussions with the expanded 12-team field.

Jeanty and the Broncos won’t have as many headline games as some of the other Heisman Trophy contenders, but he won’t be able to be ignored if he remains a touchdown machine for the rest of the season.

That’s especially the case if the Broncos are competing for a Mountain West title.
