No. 22 Boise State’s throttling of Western Michigan clears path for CFP
Every year. Every month. Every weekend. A new, innocent program marches into the national conversation of the G6 powers hoping to plant a new flag upon the throne.

Every season, a new program seeks recognition among the G6 powers, determined to secure a spot on the throne. North Texas, UNLV, Liberty, and Troy are just a few examples of these programs. They experience a defining season, only to falter in maintaining their success. Tulane and James Madison are the only institutions that have consistently remained strong.
This year, Western Michigan was that program, taken down by Boise State in a dominant performance. The Broncos throttled the Wolverines for a substantial portion of the game, and despite Western Michigan's desperate attempts, they could not regain control. Boise State's senior quarterback, Maddux Madsen, played exceptionally well, contributing significantly to the team's success.
The Broncos now find themselves ranked 22nd in the latest AP Poll, while only James Madison and North Dakota State have earned votes in the Group of Six. With Pac-12 play set to begin, Boise State's season has been reminiscent of their 2024 campaign, marked by close wins and impressive performances. As the college football season progresses, Boise State is primed to rise in the rankings, potentially securing a spot in the College Football Playoff.
