Boise State pulled off a remarkable comeback win over San Jose State on Saturday, thanks to the stellar play of quarterbacks Hank Madsen and Jack Green. After trailing by 14 points at halftime, the Broncos rallied behind Madsen and Green to score 21 unanswered points in the second half and secure the victory.
Madsen was the star of the show, throwing for a career-high 321 yards and three touchdowns. He also added a rushing touchdown to his stat line, as he led the Broncos on a late fourth-quarter drive that culminated in a game-winning touchdown pass. Madsen’s performance earned him the Mountain West Offensive Player of the Week award.
Green also had a great game, throwing for two touchdowns and running for another. His ability to extend plays with his feet and make accurate throws downfield was key in Boise State’s comeback win.
The Broncos defense also deserves credit for the win, as they forced three turnovers in the second half and held San Jose State scoreless in the second half. The defensive line was especially impressive, as they recorded four sacks and held the Spartans to just 66 rushing yards.
Boise State’s win over San Jose State was an impressive display of resilience and determination. Madsen and Green were instrumental in leading the Broncos to victory, and the defense came up with big plays when it mattered most. With this win, Boise State has put itself in a good position to make a run at the Mountain West title.
