1 DAY AGO • Associated Press

Rasean Jones - Back-to-back century games Jones registered another 100-plus receiving game with six catches for 116 yards and a touchdown in the Boise State 64-38 win over Colorado State on Saturday.

Impact The true freshman registered nine catches for 117 yards and three touchdowns just the week before in the win over Texas State on Oct. 31. Overall in his first season in college ball, Jones has collected 670 receiving yards on 44 catches and five touchdowns. In the next contest against Oregon State on Nov. 14, it will be a tougher challenge against a Beavers defense which is in the top 60 in the nation against the pass.

Harry Stewart III - Hits paydirt twice Stewart had a career best day with 89 rushing yards on nine carries and two touchdowns in the Boise State 64-38 win over Colorado State on Saturday.

Impact Stewart took advantage of fellow running back Siri Gaines missing the game with an injury and a porous Colorado State defense. If Gaines does not suit up in the next contest against Oregon State (Nov. 14), Stewart could be in for a similar share of the running game against an Oregon State defense that is in the bottom 30 in the nation against the run, allowing 170 yards and two touchdowns a game on the ground.

Dylan Riley - Explodes in win Riley took advantage of the game script with a total of 280 yards, 192 yards rushing on 19 carries and two rushing touchdowns in the Boise State 64-38 win over Colorado State on Sa...

Impact Riley also caught a pair of passes for 88 yards and a touchdown. The junior benefitted from a poor Rams defense and the omission of fellow running back, Siri Gaines, who missed the contest because of an injury. If Gaines does not suit up in the next contest against Oregon State (Nov. 14), Riley could be in for a big game against an Oregon State defense that is in the bottom 30 in the nation against the run, allowing 170 yards and two touchdowns a game on the ground. Even if Gaines is back, the junior could have a good game.

1 DAY AGO • ROTOWIRE

Max Cutforth - Pours in 5 TDs Cutforth completed 16-of-19 pass attempts for 317 yards, four passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown in the Boise State 64-38 win over Colorado State on Saturday.

Impact Cutforth took full advantage of one of the worst defenses in the nation in the Rams. It was the first start for the senior since Nov. 28, 2025 when he threw for 341 yards and two touchdowns in the win over Utah State. Unfortunately for the senior, starting quarterback Max Madsen is expected to be back for the next game against Oregon State on Nov. 14. If Cutforth is under center against the Beavers, it will be a tougher challenge against an Oregon State defense which is in the top 60 in the nation against the pass.

Cam Bates - Limited snaps against CSU Bates (undisclosed) was held to just six snaps without recording a counting stat during Saturday's 64-38 victory over Colorado State.

Impact Bates was limited to just six snaps on the day for undisclosed reasons, indicating he may be dealing with an injury of some sort. The 5-foot-10 junior failed to record a counting stat on the day and has totaled 14 receptions for 101 yards and three touchdowns on the season. His next chance to get back on the field will come against Oregon State on Saturday.

Max Cutforth - Set to start Saturday Cutforth will start Saturday against Colorado State, according to Pete Thamel of ESPN.

Impact Cutforth will get another chance to build on his strong relief outing against Texas State, where he led a comeback win after tossing three scores. The quarterback will be making his fourth career start to replace Maddux Madsen (knee), though the latter is expected back for Week 11 against Oregon State.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Maddux Madsen - Ruled out for Saturday Madsen will miss Saturday's game at Colorado State due to a minor knee injury, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Madsen won't be available for this Week 10 matchup after entering the weekend with a knee issue, but this isn't expected to be a long-term injury. The Boise State quarterback is expected back to start against Oregon State next week, and in the meantime, Max Cutforth will get the nod under center.

4 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Sire Gaines - Deemed unavailable for Saturday Gaines (undisclosed) will not play in Saturday's clash with Colorado State, per the Pac-12 availability report.

Impact Gaines is set to sit out his second consecutive contest for Boise State. The running back's absence is a significant loss for the Broncos, though the team fared well in a win against Texas State without him. Dylan Riley is positioned to handle the bulk of carries in his stead. While the nature of the injury remains unclear, it is significant enough to keep him sidelined, and he will aim to return for Week 11 against Oregon State.

6 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Maddux Madsen - Availability in question for Week 10 Madsen (knee) is questionable for Saturday's clash with Colorado State, per the Pac-12 availability report.

Impact After injuring his knee during last week's win over Texas State, Madsen's status for Saturday's matchup with the Rams is in question. The quarterback is 148-for-222 passing with 1,681 yards, 15 touchdowns and one interception, along with 40 rushes for 142 yards and three touchdowns this season. If the Utah native can't suit up, Max Cutforth would most likely start under center.

Who Will Replace FSU's Mike Norvell? 5 Coaching Candidates To Watch

Rasean Jones - Career mark in victory Jones not only had a career best in receiving yards with 117 yards, but also in receptions with nine and three touchdowns in the Boise State 46-45 win over Texas State on Saturday.

Impact Overall the true freshman has 37 receptions for 545 yards which isn't bad considering the Broncos rely more on the ground. The game against Texas State looks like an outlier. That said, Boise State's next game might be another high scoring game, this time against Colorado State. The Rams defense is in the bottom 10 in the nation defending the pass. Colorado State allows an average of 265 passing yards and a little under two passing touchdowns per game.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Akeem Wright - Season best in win Wright caught eight passes while being targeting 10 times and collected 116 yards and one touchdown in the Boise State 46-45 win over Texas State on Saturday.

Impact This was the first season for the JUCO transfer in FBS and the game was a career best and there could be more to come. The Broncos take on Colorado State in the next game. The Rams defense is in the bottom 10 in the nation defending the pass. Colorado State allows an average of 265 passing yards and a little under two passing touchdowns per game.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Dylan Riley - Works hard for TD Riley got a slew of carries, 25, for relatively few yards, 86, but did get a rushing touchdown in the Boise State 46-45 win over Texas State on Saturday.

Impact Outside of the opening game (50 rushing yards on 17 carries) against Oregon, it was Riley's lowest output in a game this season. If Riley receives the same amount of attention in the next game against Colorado State, Riley should have a much better showing against the Rams. Colorado State defense is in the bottom of the nation against the run, allowing 261 yards and almost four touchdowns per game on the ground.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Max Cutforth - Excels to the rescue Cutforth showed off some skill in relief of the Michael Madsen (ankle) who missed the game and completed 8-of-13 passes for 131 yards, but more importantly three touchdowns in the...

Impact The Broncos needed every one of Cutforth's touchdowns. Madsen is questionable for the next game on Nov. 7 against Colorado State. Whomever is under center for Boise State will have a great chance at padding his stats against the Rams defense who is in the bottom 10 in the nation against the pass. Colorado State allows an average of 265 passing yards and a little under two passing touchdowns per game.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Maddux Madsen - Day-to-day, questionable for CSU game Madsen (knee) is day-to-day and avoided a serious injury, but his status remains up in the air for Week 10 against Colorado State, per Shaun Goodwin of the Idaho Statesman.

Impact Madsen banged up his knee in the win over Texas State in WEek 9, exiting the game with about eight minutes to play in the fourth quarter. The gunslinger was later seen using crutches to move around, but he's reportedly avoided a "serious" ailment - Boise State fans can exhale. If he can't play in Fort Collins, Max Cutforth would likely be next up in his stead.

Maddux Madsen - Knee injured in Week 9 Madsen suffered a knee injury during Saturday's game against Texas State, Shaun Goodwin of The Idaho Statesman reports.

Impact Madsen left the game with about eight minutes remaining, and he was later seen icing his left knee and using crutches to get around. Post-game, Boise State's head coach Spencer Danielson said he does not know the severity of Madsen's injury. So, for the time being anyway, Madsen's injury status is questionable going into Week 10 at Colorado State.
