Boise State Secures Playoff Spot with Mountain West Victory

Boise State secured a spot in the College Football Playoff with a 21-7 victory over UNLV in the Mountain West Championship Game. The Broncos' defense was dominant, sacking UNLV's quarterback six times and holding them to a season-low seven points. Ashton Jeanty, a Heisman Trophy contender, ran for 209 yards, including a 75-yard touchdown, solidifying Boise State's case for a first-round bye in the CFP. The win marks Boise State's fifth Mountain West title, and they could be seeded as high as No. 3 depending on other conference outcomes.
