In a surprising move, Boise State named sophomore quarterback Maddux Madsen the starting quarterback for their season-opening game against Georgia Southern. Many people are surprised by this choice, as Madsen defeated Malachi Nelson, the highly anticipated USC transfer and former ESPN top prospect.
Knowledge and Knowns Trump-Hype
The coaching staff of the Broncos has placed a high value on Madsen’s consistency and command of the offensive scheme. It seemed clear that his nine games played the previous season, 1,234 passing yards and nine touchdowns, combined with his mobility, which was demonstrated by his 121 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns, swung the odds in his favor.
Boise State’s Grand Goals
Boise State has lofty goals for the upcoming season, including a trip to the enlarged College Football Playoff. The Broncos, the reigning Mountain West champions, think they have the skill and experience necessary to compete at the greatest level.
Lethal Attack with Ashton Jeanty
Star running back Ashton Jeanty, who led the country in yards per carry the previous season, is the cornerstone of the Boise State attack, which is expected to maintain its dominance. It is anticipated that Jeanty’s explosiveness and Madsen’s leadership will combine to form a potent offensive force.
Nelson’s Path to Salvation
Malachi Nelson made a big splash when he joined Boise State, but his only season at USC was marred by injury. He’ll have to put in a lot of effort to get back to his best and establish himself in this new setting.
Coach Danielson’s Audacious Step
One of the most important choices made by first-year head coach Spencer Danielson was to name Madsen the starting quarterback. The intense rivalry between Madsen and Nelson highlights the determination of both quarterbacks and the coaching staff’s final decision illustrates their faith in Madsen’s ability to guide the squad.
Obstacles to Come
The Broncos have a difficult opening game of the season against Georgia Southern and then a rematch with the third-ranked Oregon Ducks. In these preliminary tests, Madsen will get a chance to justify his selection and guide the squad to victory.
In summary
There are undoubtedly questions about Boise State’s choice to start Maddux Madsen over Malachi Nelson. But the Broncos are counting on Madsen’s familiarity with the system and experience to lead them to victory this season. As the season progresses, the quarterback competition will surely continue to be an interesting plot to follow.
