Story summary

On Saturday, No. 22 Boise State defeated Utah State 37-18 in their first game as members of the Pac-12 Conference. Maddux Madsen, Boise State's quarterback, completed 17-of-21 passes for 244 yards and two touchdowns, while Dylan Riley added two rushing touchdowns. This marks Boise State's fourth consecutive victory after a loss to then-No. 2 Oregon in their season opener. The Broncos now lead the series against Utah State with a record of 26-5, including 12 straight home wins over the Aggies.

Utah State, who had lost five games in a row before defeating Troy last week, struggled on both sides of the ball. Jake Ripp returned an interception for a touchdown late in the second quarter to put Boise State up 28-7. The game also featured a significant rushing play by Javen Jacobs, who gained 63 yards and later caught a 1-yard touchdown pass from Grady Brosterhous.

This win solidifies Boise State's recent resurgence, with four straight wins improving their record to 4-1, while Utah State fell to 1-4.
