FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) — No. 5 Boise State is already the biggest bully in the Mountain West Conference, even if the Broncos’ stay might be short and sweet.

The Broncos, an expansion target for the Big East, routed Colorado State 63-13 in their Mountain West debut Saturday behind huge games from quarterback Kellen Moore, tailback Doug Martin and wide receiver Tyler Shoemaker.

Moore threw for 338 yards and four touchdowns on 26-of-30 passing, Martin ran 20 times for 200 yards and three scores and Shoemaker caught nine passes for 180 yards and two TDs and added a 36-yard run on a fake punt that led to another score for the Broncos (6-0, 1-0).

And the trio did all of this damage in just 212 quarters before watching the backups finish off the Rams (3-3, 1-1).
