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.

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.

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.

QB2 heading into fall camp Boise State head coach Spencer Danielson said Cutforth is the QB2 heading into fall camp, Shaun Goodwin of Idaho Statesman reports.

Impact Cutforth looks to have secured the backup role behind Maddux Madsenas of now, but Danielson did go on to say that the competition remains open for the QB2 spot with freshman Cash Herrera. This still puts the pressure on Cutforth after some struggles when seeing the field last year.

Three picks in relief of Madsen Cutforth was 15-for-27 passing for 202 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions during Saturday's 38-10 defeat to Washington.

Impact Broncos' starter Maddux Madsen was benched after a rough first half of action against Washington in which he threw two picks, and Cutforth was sent in to replace him. Cutforth didn't fare much better, throwing three interceptions as the Broncos limped to a 28-point loss in the LA Bowl. It was a rocky season for the gunslinger, who has two years of eligibility remaining.

Will not start title game Cutforth will not start Friday's game against UNLV, Shaun Goodwin of the Idaho Statesman reports.

Impact Cutforth was only going to be Boise State's starting quarterback while Maddux Madsen (ankle) was out. But now that Madsen is healthy, the Broncos will revert to him starting under center. So despite a strong performance in Week 14, with 26 completed passes for 341 yards and two touchdowns at Utah State, Cutforth has been relegated to primary backup once again.

Much better outing in win Cutforth was 22-for-34 passing for 239 yards during Saturday's 49-21 victory versus Colorado State.

Impact Cutforth was coming off two quiet games, as he threw for 106 yards in the loss to Fresno State and 104 yards in the loss to San Diego State. However, the Broncos bounced back against the Rams and Cutforth's performance reflected that, as he completed 65 percent of his passes and threw for a career-high 239 yards. With Maddux Madsen doubtful once again, Cutforth appears slated for another start in Week 14.

Unimpressive again Week 12 Cutforth was 12-for-18 passing for 104 yards during Saturday's 17-7 loss against San Diego State.

Impact Each of Boise State's last two games has seen Cutforth barely log triple-digit yards. Even though Maddux Madsen (ankle) is out indefinitely, his current backup may not be the Broncos' long-term answer at quarterback. Boise State's team has not scored double-digit points since Madsen got hurt, leaving room for a better replacement under center. At least for now, Cutforth remains the Broncos' preferred QB1.

Confirmed starter sans Madsen Cutforth will serve as Boise State's starting quarterback for Saturday's game against San Diego State, Kirk Kenney of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Cutforth stepped in for starting quarterback Maddux Madsen (ankle) after Madsen suffered an injury. Though Cutforth threw a pair of interceptions after entering the game, he's been named the Broncos' starter for Week 12. He's expected to remain under center for the duration of Madsen's absence, though it's unclear how long that will be.

Struggles in releif Cutforth was 14-for-29 passing for 106 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 30-7 loss against Fresno State.

Impact It was a rough outing for Cutforth, who was forced into action in the first quarter after Maddux Madsen (ankle) left the game. With Madsen expected to be sidelined for a while, Cutforth could be in for an extended look under center. The sophomore has appeared in five games overall this season, primarily in mop-up duty, completing 51.3 percent of his 39 pass attempts for 173 yards. Boise State will visit San Diego State in Week 12, following a bye.
