Kuna punches playoff ticket by beating Meridian
KUNA — The high school football postseason officially begins next week, but Kuna treated Friday’s regular-season finale against Meridian as a de facto playoff game. And for good reason. In a win-or-go-home spot, the Kavemen secured a 27-13 home victory over the Warriors to punch their ticket to the Class 6A state playoffs. “It’s the first round of the playoffs,” first-year Kuna head coach Josh Bravo said. “The kids wanted it. The kids have been wanting it all year, and they’ve just been developing it throughout the year. This is what we’re starting to put together, a full team effort.” After Meridian (5-4, 2-3 6A Southern Idaho Conference Foothills Division) trimmed Kuna’s (5-4, 3-2) lead to 20-13 with 6:58 remaining, the Kavemen put the game away with an impressive touchdown march. The drive included a 24-yard strike from quarterback Lino Senio to Peyton Martin on third-and-long. Ian Lackie had a five-yard touchdown run with 61 seconds to play to finish off the drive. Martin led the way for the Kavemen with five catches for 142 yards, including an 87-yard touchdown in the second quarter. Martin, a senior, credits Bravo for sparking Kuna’s turnaround following a two-win season. “He’s brought that

Kirby Moore got a taste for coaching at Boise State. Here's how it's going so far
A couple of familiar faces will be on the home team’s sideline when Boise State football travels to Pullman, Washington, this weekend to face Washington State. Chief among them? Cougars head coach Kirby Moore. Moore, the younger brother of Boise State quarterback great Kellen Moore, played wide receiver for the Broncos from 2009 to 2013. He earned his first head coaching gig this past offseason when he took charge of Washington State, and although it has been over a decade since Moore last wore Bronco blue and orange, he still holds a lot of fondness for his alma mater. “It’s a great program. I had a lot of great memories there,” Moore said in his weekly press conference on Monday. “It’s where I got into coaching, the coaches I was able to be around, and the players and the teams and everything that came with that.” As with many student-athletes who played at Boise State in the 2000s and early 2010s, one of Moore’s biggest influences is former head coach Chris Petersen. Moore missed half of his final season at Boise State with a serious foot injury, but instead of just sitting on the sidelines, he asked to wear a

Borah (2-7, 1-3 6A SIC River) got 271 yards passing and three touchdowns from quarterback Dayton Wolverton as the Lions won 22-21 over Eagle Friday night, including a two-point conversion after the third touchdown that put the Lions by a point. Borah then blocked what would have been a game-winning 29-yard field goal in the final minutes of the game to seal the win. The Lions totaled 410 yards of offense with Samuel Manirafasha rushing for 100 yards. Eagle’s win streak in divisional play dated back to 2021.

Boise State continues to climb The Associated Press Top 25 football rankings. After Saturday evening’s 31-10 victory over Washington State , the Broncos jumped into a tie for No. 20 in Sunday’s latest poll. Boise State had previously sat at No. 21. The No. 20-ranked Broncos received 422 points and slot in behind the ACC’s SMU (440 points) but are tied on points with the Big Ten’s Northwestern. Both teams sit ahead of the Big 12’s Arizona, who slots in at No. 22 with 400 points. The sole team the Broncos jumped over was the Iowa Hawkeyes, who lost 13-10 to Minnesota and fell from No. 15 to completely out of the poll. https://t.co/T23NtgfCyw Ohio State replaces BYU at No. 2 while No. 1 Miami is the only team to hold its spot in the AP Top 25 poll.

Do the Pac-12 holdovers have a financial edge over Boise State? Here are the numbers
Life has gotten off to a good start for Boise State football in the new Pac-12. The Broncos have raced to a 2-0 start in conference play and are considered favorites to win the rejuvenated conference in its first full season since 2023, after which most Pac-12 teams scattered to other leagues. Only two teams remain from the once-revered Pac-12 — Oregon State and Washington State — and the Broncos will face the latter Saturday in Pullman, Washington. Oregon State is a charter member of the Pac-12, joining in 1915 when it was called the Pacific Coast Conference, while Washington State joined in 1962. That gives both programs decades of exposure at the highest level, while the six other football teams joining the conference came from the Mountain West, or, in Texas State’s case, the Sun Belt. Yet the Cougars and Beavers have existed in a sort of purgatory for the past two years. The two teams sat alone together in the Pac-12 while waiting for the rest to join. There was no conference championship — they played each other twice in 2025, and otherwise faced off against Mountain West and other nonconference teams in games that ultimately meant little.

Boise State already has 1 standout freshman WR. This 4-star recruit may be another
When wide receiver Terrious Favors arrived in Idaho last May, many expected him to be Boise State football’s breakout star in 2026. A four-star recruit out of Atlanta, Favors had offers from Georgia, Georgia Tech, Wisconsin, Tulane and South Florida. After multiple visits to Boise State, Favors decided to bring his talents to the Treasure Valley and seemingly rejuvenate a wide receiver room in need of an overhaul. Yet through five games, he’d seen just one snap of action. While his freshman teammate, Rasean Jones, led the team in catches and receiving yards, Favors ran scout-team plays just to get more reps in practice. “Coming to college, I knew nothing was going to be given to me,” Favors told reporters on Wednesday. “… It’s gonna come eventually. That’s what my mama always tells me: Keep your head down, it’s gonna come.” Earlier this month, his chance finally came. Heading into Boise State’s game against Fresno State on Oct. 10, the Broncos were without wideouts Jones, Cam Bates and Darren Morris. Boise State head coach Spencer Danielson said before the game that some of the team’s younger receivers would have to step up, and Favors certainly didn’t disappoint. In 14 snaps
