Entering Autzen Stadium as a 24.5-point underdog, Boise State nearly pulled off an all-time upset on Saturday against No. 2 Oregon.

The Broncos let a 10-point first-half lead slip away in a hard-fought 34-27 loss to the Ducks. 

“Proud of how we battled, wasn’t enough,” head coach Spencer Danielson said after the game. “There’s no moral victories. We’ve got to be better.”

Boise State used tight rotations at most positions in Week 1. The five starting offensive linemen played all 68 offensive snaps while Dylan Riley and Sire Gaines were the only Broncos running backs to see action. 

On defense, Boise State went two deep at defensive tackle, edge rusher and linebacker but primarily leaned on its No. 1 unit in the secondary. 

Three true freshmen had roles for the Broncos last weekend: wide receiver Rasean Jones (66 snaps), tight end Keawe Browne (four snaps) and nickel Madden Soliai (12 snaps). Jones and Soliai were two of the biggest bright spots for Boise State. 

Linebacker Boen Phelps and safety Derek Ganter Jr. played all 64 defensive snaps.
