Maddux Madsen threw for four touchdowns in the first half of No. 15 Boise State's 56-24 romp past visiting San Diego State in a Friday night Mountain West Conference matchup.
Friday. Night. Lights. There’s always something special about college football being played under the lights ahead of Saturday’s slate of wall-to-wall action, and that’s exactly what we have tonight.
On Saturday, a Mountain West Conference battle will take place between the San Diego State Aztecs and the Boise State Broncos. The Aztecs are third in their conference, while the Broncos sit at the top.
