Ashton Jeanty has officially crossed the 2,000-yard milestone this season, solidifying his status as one of the elite running backs in college football. The junior from Boise State is now part of an exclusive club, becoming just the fifth college running back in the past decade to achieve this remarkable feat. He joins the ranks of notable names like D’Onta Foreman, Tevin Coleman, Rashaad Penny, and Melvin Gordon. With his eyes set on adding to his impressive total, Jeanty will have another opportunity to shine this week against Oregon State.
Boise State’s Playoff Aspirations
No. 12 Boise State is gearing up to host Oregon State, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. The Broncos are looking to solidify their chances of making the College Football Playoff, and Jeanty will undoubtedly be the focal point of their offensive strategy. Throughout the season, he has consistently delivered, rushing for at least 127 yards in all 11 games. Currently, Jeanty boasts an astonishing 2,062 total rushing yards and 27 touchdowns, with four games exceeding the 200-yard mark.
Impressive Performance Amid Blowouts
What makes Jeanty’s accomplishments even more impressive is the fact that he hasn’t always been needed for late-game snaps. Boise State, with a record of 10-1, has often dominated their opponents, allowing Jeanty to rest during blowout victories. If the games had been closer, it’s likely his numbers would be even more staggering. For instance, his lowest rushing total this season was 127 yards against Portland State, where he only had 11 carries. Imagine what his stats could look like if he had played the full game in tighter matchups!
Oregon State’s Struggles
As for Oregon State, they are not exactly coming into this matchup on a high note. The Beavers have won just one of their last six games, making them a less daunting opponent for Boise State. If the game unfolds as expected, Jeanty may find himself resting for a significant portion of the second half, allowing him to conserve energy for future challenges.
