Boise State University football players now hold a higher national standing than several major conference rivals. The team rose to 17th in the latest Associated Press Top 25 poll released this week. This places the Broncos above Ohio State, Ole Miss, and the University of Oregon.

The Broncos have won eight consecutive games this season. Their record stands at eight wins and one loss. Their only defeat came in the opening game against Oregon in an away contest.

The team secured a victory over Colorado State last weekend. That result contributed to their climb in the rankings. The Broncos will host ESPN College Game Day in Boise this coming weekend. It is the first time the broadcast has been held in the city since 2010.

Fans and analysts view the upcoming home game against Oregon State as a key test. The Broncos are currently the favorite among Group of Six teams to secure a spot in the College Football Playoffs.

The team aims to build on its recent momentum during the televised event. The presence of the national broadcast adds visibility to the program.

Boise State remains on a winning trajectory as it prepares for its next matchup.
