00:00So, yeah, Boise State in the Mountain West, 62 to 30 over Utah State, but Boise State,

00:10it's been one secret to their success.

00:13Jinty has been fantastic with that run game, 186 rushing yards today, three touchdowns,

00:20and this is off 13 carries.

00:22I believe he got most of that in the first half as well, Rich, and surprise, surprise

00:27is now the shortest price for the Heisman at plus 220.

00:31Think about this statistically, and he's going to need stats to get to New York because he's

00:36playing for Boise State.

00:38It's a Mountain West schedule.

00:39A lot of Heisman voters are going to be like, yeah, big deal.

00:42You just lit up Utah State, big deal.

00:44You lit up New Mexico or Wyoming, right?

00:46So the best game left on the schedule is UNLV and UNLV just lost.

00:51We talked about the loss against Syracuse on Friday night.

00:55He's going to need monster numbers.

00:57Think about this, Dubs, over 1,000 yards in just under five games in under 100 carries,

01:05he's averaging over 10 yards a carry.

01:08This is legit.

01:09I mean, this is a big time, possibly first running back drafted in the 2025 NFL draft.

01:17He's got great size.

01:18He's got great hands out of the backfield, and what I love most about this kid is the

01:22majority of the yards that he picks up are after contact.

01:27You hit this kid and he just spins and keeps going.

01:30He is a big, thick, physical back, speedy when he gets in the open field.

01:35And I'll throw one more thing.

01:37I really, I'll throw one more bouquet at Ashton GT.

01:41He could have gone to just about any power four program.

01:43The NIL is very lucrative right now.

01:46He could have gone into the portal and wound up at just about any school he wanted to.

01:51He remained committed to Boise State.

01:53I kind of like that, you know, dance with the one that brought you there.

01:58And that's what he's doing.

01:59And he might have a Heisman run in him, which would be phenomenal.

02:03Now, truly remarkable, the stats that Ashton GT is putting up on the weekly plus 220 now

02:11as the shortest price and rightfully so.
