Rypien ‘lets loose’ in classic performance for Boise State passing attack
The Boise State football team’s offensive staff trims and tweaks the playbook each week to match the opponent.
The Broncos’ first touchdown of the 2018 season didn’t come from that process.
Quarterback Brett Rypien hit wide receiver Sean Modster for a 20-yard touchdown Saturday night against tight coverage in the corner of the end zone on a play that was installed for the Troy game simply because the two seniors had found a special chemistry on the play in fall camp. They even beat the Broncos’ own defense for a touchdown with the same throw in the second scrimmage of camp.
“That was a money ball,” Modster said. “... Brett let loose tonight.”
