Ashton Jeanty leads the nation in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns, but the Boise State star needs a huge performance Saturday night to assure his Heisman Trophy hopes don't get derailed. Jeanty will look to load up on yardage and create highlight-reel plays when the No. 12 Broncos host Nevada in Mountain West play at Boise, Idaho. Boise State (7-1, 4-0 MW) needs to keep winning after being unveiled as the last team in the field per the initial rankings for the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff. The Broncos have an eye at landing a first-round bye. To do so, they have to be ranked higher than the lowest-ranked conference champion of the big four conferences, probably the Big 12.
