    Ashton Jeanty excited by CFB fans as Boise State wins against SDSU in the middle of Heisman Trophy race | News, results, highlights, statistics and rumors

    Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty’s Heisman campaign continued Friday with 180 total yards and two rushing touchdowns in a 56-24 home win over San Diego State.

    Jeanty rushed for 149 yards on 31 carries and added 31 more yards on two receptions.

    He got off to a slow start in the first half (15 carries, 37 yards) as San Diego State stacked the box against him. That decision left the Aztecs vulnerable on the back end, and Boise State quarterback Maddux Madsen took advantage with 307 passing yards and four touchdowns (three to Latrell Caples).

    Fans pointed to SDSU’s decision.

    BOOM CHILLUPS AKA SPENCER HALL! @edsb

    Ashton Jeanty runs into twenty guys every time he gets the ball

    San Diego State’s decision not to use any type of pass defense today just to ruin Ashton Jeanty’s Heisman resume is a commitment to the rivalry that few teams are capable of making.

    The first kick was good @FKWGblog

    SDSU willing to lose by a hundred just so they can say they “stopped Jeanty”

    Carrying the box to stop Ashton Jeanty is a very good idea if you value preventing him from winning the Heisman over winning football games. pic.twitter.com/uc782UhnRP

    Ashton Jeanty won’t get the stats on the stat sheet in this game because he’s facing 10 in the box, but make no mistake, those play-action passes are open because of him.
    Boise has a good team.

    Jeanty hit the ground running in the second half, scoring both of his touchdowns and rushing for 112 yards. Both came from four yards away, and he didn’t have to break much of a sweat for either of them.

    Through eight games, Jeanty rushed for 1,525 yards and 20 touchdowns on 190 carries (8.0 YPC). He also caught 14 passes for 81 yards and an additional score.

    And so the hype for Jeanty Heisman continues after another fantastic game.

    The first half may not have featured eye-popping numbers, but it’s hard enough for any running back to break through a brick wall. Still, he posted a 180-yard, two-touchdown game for the nation’s No. 15 team, which is squarely in the College Football Playoff mix.

    And at this rate, Jeanty can book a flight to New York in December as a Heisman finalist.

    This year’s race looks great on paper, with Colorado two-way superstar Travis Hunter, Miami quarterback Cam Ward and Oregon signal-caller Dillon Gabriel all in the mix as well, but Jeanty It’s not going anywhere.

    There will be people who will point to this performance by Jeanty as the reason why he shouldn’t be in the Heisman conversation. Those people didn’t watch the game.

    Wow, this is impressive from Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty: It’s something you can amp up a ton and get on the radar of voters and the Heisman zeitgeist.

    Ashton Jeanty is having another Heisman day!

    Brandon Pipkin @pipkin_brandon

    Ashton Jeanty just put that Heisman Trophy away tonight. The race is over and give that man the prize he deserves.

    chef phil dunphy. @favored will

    Like there’s no way we can really say Travis Hunter deserves the Heisman over Ashton Jeanty, right?

    Jack Esselman @EsselmanJack

    People are going to say Ashton Jeanty should lose his Heisman tonight because he has 35 yards on 15 carries. However, people who don’t watch the game won’t know that they are putting eight or nine in the box, which is almost more impressive than 200 yards IMHO.

    Jeanty Heisman is back friends

    Ashton Jeanty won’t get the stats on the stat sheet, but make no mistake, those play-action passes are open because of him. The entire defense is not focused on Travis Hunter at all. #BoiseState

    Jeanty and the 7-1 Broncos (4-0 Mountain West) now have four regular-season games remaining, beginning Saturday at home against Nevada.
