BOISE, Idaho – Boise State came in as the No. 25 team in the first edition of the College Football Rankings that were released Tuesday evening.

Boise State is the only Group of Six team ranked by the selection committee.

The rankings mark the 27th week the Broncos (7-1, 4-0 Pac-12) have been represented in the CFP rankings since it began in 2014. They were in the poll in 2024, when they were ranked in all six weeks of the rankings. It is the fourth time Boise State has been included in the top 25 on the first week of the rankings. 

The 2026 season marks the third year of a 12-team bracket, consisting of champions from the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, SEC, the highest-ranked team from any of the remaining conferences, and seven at-large teams. The Broncos earned a spot in the 2024 College Football Playoff, the first year of the 12-team bracket.

The Broncos are one of five teams in the nation currently on a seven-game win streak. Boise State has scored 30+ points in all seven victories, the first time the program has done so since 2014. Dylan Riley leads the nation in rushing with 1,049 yards and is one of three FBS running backs that has recorded over 1,000 yards on the season. He leads the 11th best rushing attack in the nation (222.8 yards per game).

Boise State will look for its eighth consecutive win when it kicks off against Colorado State in Fort Collins, Colo., at 4 p.m. MT on Nov. 7. The game will be televised nationally on USA Sports.
