Dylan Riley's 83-yard Run Seals Boise State's 38-24 Win
Dylan Riley ran 26 times for 198 yards, scored twice in the fourth quarter, and put Boise State past South Dakota 38-24 with an 83-yard run with 1:33 left.
South Dakota scored first, a 16-yard Austyn Modrzewski pass to Bryce Cohoon, and Boise State tied it as the first quarter ran out on a 9-yard Maddux Madsen pass to Rasean Jones. South Dakota went back in front 14-7 on a 5-yard touchdown pass to Tysen Boze. Sire Gaines ran 3 yards to tie it, and Cam Bates caught a 4-yard score with 2:04 left in the half to put Boise State ahead 21-14, a lead it did not give up. That was the only lead change of the night, though the game was tied three times in all.
South Dakota did not go away. Boise State added a 38-yard Canaan Moore field goal in the third, Boze caught a 59-yard touchdown from Modrzewski to cut it to 24-21, and a 43-yard Bohdie Ing field goal with 10:33 to play tied it at 24.
Then Riley took over. He scored from 2 yards out at 6:25 to make it 31-24, and the 83-yarder iced it. The Broncos had 327 rushing yards on 47 carries (about 7 a rush) and 535 total yards, with just 208 in the air. They also lost two fumbles, Riley's and Bates's, and South Dakota could not make that count for more than a tie.
Boise State goes to 2-1. For fantasy, Riley's 35.6 points were the biggest of the day, and Jones was a nice add on the other end of Madsen's throws.
