Maddux Madsen - Solid in openerMadsen went 22-for-31 passing for 280 yards, a touchdown and an interception during Saturday's 56-45 victory against Georgia Southern.

ImpactThe Broncos' running game was the focal point of Saturday's win, as they rushed for 371 yards and seven touchdowns as a team, though Madsen was solid, completing 71 percent of his passes while throwing a lone first-half interception. Madsen was surprisingly named Boise State's starter ahead of high-profile transfer Malachi Nelson. The redshirt sophomore threw for 1,191 yards, nine touchdowns and three interceptions after taking over for Taylen Green last season. Madsen figures to be back under center next week in a much tougher road matchup with Oregon.

Sire Gaines - Impressive collegiate debutGaines logged 12 carries for 110 yards and a touchdown and gathered in all three targets for 44 yards and an additional score in Saturday's 56-45 win over Georgia Southern.

ImpactWhile Ashton Jeanty's six-touchdown performance was the focal point of the season-opening win, the freshman Gaines certainly made an impression after taking over in the fourth quarter, highlighted by a 38-yard touchdown run that put the Broncos ahead 49-37. While it may be hard for Gaines to find touches in more competitive games, it's notable that he saw work ahead of Jambres Dubar, Jeanty's presumptive backup. The 6-foot, 208-pound Gaines joined Boise State as a three-star recruit out of California.
