The Boise State football team faces travel disruptions ahead of their Saturday matchup against the Oregon Ducks. A team flight intended for Eugene was diverted to Portland International Airport due to heavy rain on the Eugene runway. Personnel are instead traveling via bus from Portland to Eugene, a journey expected to take approximately three hours amidst Friday evening traffic. These complications will likely result in the team arriving at their hotel after 10 p.m. local time. The Broncos enter the contest as 24.5-point underdogs and will face the Ducks at 12:30 p.m. PT. While the team faced weather challenges during transit, forecasts indicate rain is not expected to be a significant factor during the game itself.
