00:00And talking about the team coming into week 13, holding that 12th spot, Boise State projected
00:09to go as a fourth seed if the college football playoffs were to start coming into week 13.
00:14They get a nice little score out there today, 17 to 13 over Wyoming, but what is the measuring
00:21stick for Boise State?
00:22Are they the real deal?
00:24Is Ashton Jeanty the best running back in the nation?
00:27He puts up another massive stat sheet, another 169 rushing yards, but is this the time where
00:33we sit back and say, okay, they could be viable contenders in the playoffs, or is it still
00:39a matter of time and they're really not going to get that test once we get there?
00:43Yeah, great questions.
00:45First off with Ashton Jeanty, 2,000 yards, first back to do that since 2019.
00:51So he passed an important threshold, especially for those thinking about Heisman Trophy.
00:56It looks like Travis Hunter is a heavy favorite for good reason right now.
01:01Another couple of touchdown receptions today for the Buffaloes all-around athlete.
01:07But Jeanty going over 2,000 yards is going to attract the attention of some voters.
01:11In terms of Boise State, are they fit to beat a team from the Big Ten or the SEC?
01:18I have my doubts.
01:20If they're a number four seed and they get a bye, and in round two potentially facing
01:26the number five seed, I think they'll be a heavy underdog.
01:30I think you'll have a team from a power four conference spending two weeks to prepare for
01:36essentially one player.
01:38They're going to be creating a defense just to stop Ashton Jeanty.
01:42So can they win a playoff game?
01:44Perhaps.
01:45But I think it'll be a long shot.
01:46And despite the fact that they'll be the higher seed dubs, I think they'll be a heavy underdog,
01:51maybe a touchdown or higher in that round one game.
