Boise State Nearly Upset Top-Ranked Oregon | Oregon Ducks Football News

Boise State nearly pulled off the upset against No. 2 Oregon, clawing back from a 10-point deficit to lead 17-14 at halftime and even tying it at 24 thanks to a clutch throw from QB Maddux Madsen—but ultimately fell 34-27 after two missed chances in the fourth quarter. Despite a brutal travel day that included a rerouted flight and long bus ride, the Broncos came out firing, scoring on their opening drive and dominating early. Oregon seized control during their “middle eight” minutes, turning momentum with two quick scores to take the lead for good. Madsen delivered a gutsy, turnover-free performance with three TDs, and the team played remarkably clean—few penalties, no turnovers. The defense showed improved tackling, and new faces stepped up. It was a statement win against a top-ranked foe that proves Boise State is poised to be a major threat the rest of the season.
