UConn Football Opponent Preview: Boise State
Continuing our preview series which started with UCF, we take a look at the Boise State Broncos, the UConn Huskies’ Week 2 opponent.
The only other team besides UCF on UConn’s schedule receiving consistent top-25 buzz, and rightfully so, is Boise State. The Broncos are poised to reclaim their post as alpha dog of the Mountain West and grab big wins in opportunities against Oklahoma State and BYU.
2017 Review
After opening the season with a rocky 2-2 start, Boise State won nine out of its last 10, closing the season with a win over Fresno State in the Mountain West Championship game and a Las Vegas Bowl victory over Oregon. Both opponents were ranked No. 25 in the country at the time.
