This was what the Boise State football team needed after five grinding weeks — an easy win full of big, fun plays.
Just don’t read too much into it.
Boise State whacked Colorado State 56-28 in a game that felt over by the end of the first quarter. The wide receivers and quarterback Brett Rypien starred again, defensive backs Avery Williams and Kekaula Kaniho combined for a bunch of big plays (two interceptions, a forced fumble, a punt-return for a TD and an onside-kick return for a TD) and the Broncos twice led by 35 points.
But Colorado State (3-5, 2-2) is bad.
