Boise State faces Oregon to establish Group of Six playoff standing

Boise State travels to face No. 2 Oregon on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET. As a 24-point underdog, the Broncos aim to maintain their position as the leading Group of Six program in the College Football Playoff rankings. A competitive performance remains critical, as the team looks to move on from a 9-5 finish last season. Running backs Dylan Riley and Sire Gaines are expected to lead the ground attack against the Big Ten opponent. Following this matchup, Boise State returns home to host Memphis, a team that recently moved into the national conversation after an opening win against UNLV. Other programs, including Fresno State and South Florida, are also contending for the Group of Six automatic bid as the season progresses.
