Game Preview
Heisman candidate Ashton Jeanty returns rested and ready, which could spell trouble for UNLV’s defense when No. 17 Boise State visits the Rebels in a prime Mountain West matchup Friday night in Las Vegas. Bettors should pay attention to Jeanty, as he has been a powerhouse for Boise State (5-1, 2-0 MW), averaging 9.9 yards per carry with over 1,200 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns. Jeanty’s explosive ability has even sparked whispers of a record-breaking season, with the running back hinting at a potential chase for Barry Sanders’ single-season rushing mark of 2,628 yards.
The Rebels (6-1, 2-0) enter with a solid run defense, ranking 20th nationally, but Jeanty has shown breakaway skills reminiscent of Sanders himself, with eight 50+ yard touchdown runs this season. Bettors eyeing player props may find Jeanty’s long runs and touchdown count worth a look, as UNLV’s defense faces one of its toughest tests. UNLV coach Barry Odom calls Jeanty “one of the great players in college football” and praised his vision, speed, and physicality.
If the game becomes a shootout, both teams are well-prepared: Boise State ranks third nationally in scoring at 46.8 points per game, while UNLV sits close behind at fifth with 43.6. For UNLV, wide receiver Ricky White III is a key playmaker with 614 yards and nine touchdowns, and he leads the nation in blocked punts, setting a school record with three this season. White’s impact extends beyond receiving, adding intrigue to any special teams props.
Rebels quarterback Hajj-Malik Williams has been efficient, throwing 10 touchdowns with only two interceptions, while star linebacker Jackson Woodard leads the team with 63 tackles and has four interceptions. Woodard, who faced Jeanty in last year’s Mountain West title game where Boise State topped UNLV 44-20, acknowledges the challenge, saying, “We’re going to have to be our best to stop him.”
UNLV has already secured bowl eligibility, aiming for a second consecutive bowl appearance for the first time in school history. Meanwhile, Boise State holds a dominant 9-3 series record, including seven straight wins. For bettors, Boise State’s momentum and Jeanty’s form make the Broncos a compelling pick, though UNLV’s high-scoring offense and solid defense could present value as a home underdog in what promises to be a high-energy, high-stakes showdown.
