Spencer Danielson, the head coach of Boise State Broncos, has recently been included in the watchlist for the Bear Bryant Coach of the Year award. While Ashton Jeanty is getting attention and setting records, Danielson is also skilled. Being on this list indicates that individuals across the nation are beginning to pay attention. Boise State holds a record of 5-1 (2-0 in the Mountain West) and is currently placed at number 15 in the AP poll and number 19 in the Coaches poll.
At just 35 years old, Spencer Danielson appears to have breathed new life into Boise State Football following a challenging year that saw coach Avalos being fired and Danielson taking on the role of interim coach. Under the leadership of coach Danielson, Boise State achieved a remarkable conference championship at the end of the season, securing his potential future as head coach of the Boise State Broncos Football team.
The Boise State Broncos are making a comeback under the leadership of Spencer Danielson.
When Spencer Danielson took charge, a fresh energy infused the program, which has now carried over into the 2024 season. It has been transformed into passion, and that passion is resulting in success. At the start of the year, a lot of skeptics had counted out this team, especially following the incident involving Malachi Nelson. However, others question if Ashton Jeanty is solely responsible for the team’s success due to the absence of a passing game. Actually, Spencer Danielson and his team have improved the defense, expanded on the achievements of the special teams, and instilled discipline.
The stats provide the evidence. Boise State is currently in a third-place tie for blocked kicks and ranked 12th for blocked punts, leading in sacks, and sharing fourth place in tackles for a loss. The passing game may not be the strongest, but they come through with big plays when necessary and Jeanty finishes the job. The crucial thing is that the offense and defense work together effectively. When the offense can consistently move the ball on the ground and the defense is able to rack up multiple sacks, it significantly lowers the morale of the opposing team.
When you check online for Boise State Broncos tickets, you’ll notice that the prices have increased, if they are available. Prior to the first home game of the season, it was revealed by Boise State officials that the first three home games were already fully booked. Tickets for the game between the Broncos and Washington State were priced significantly higher than usual ticket prices. There’s excitement surrounding this team and the fans are eager to watch them play on The Blue.
Awarding the Coach of the Year.
Every January, there is a ceremony during which the Paul “Bear” Bryant College Football Coach of the Year Award is presented to a single coach selected from a group of 27 coaches. The roster consists of a coach representing each of the Power Four conferences and another from the combined Group of Five conferences, along with the Pac-12 and independent teams. Boise State’s head coach has received this award two times.
Chris Peterson was the recipient of the award in both 2006 and 2009. Fifteen years have passed. Bringing the award back to Boise would definitely necessitate winning a conference championship and making it to the playoffs. Most Boise State fans would be thrilled to reach those accomplishments this season. Receiving the award would just be the cherry on top.
In the foreseeable future, the Broncos could secure victories against UNLV and Oregon State, claim a Heisman trophy, Bear Bryant Coach of the Year award, a conference title, and make it to the playoffs. As Boise State Football prepares for the upcoming transition to the Pac-12, there is no better opportunity to enhance its reputation.
