Ashton Jeanty rushed for 217 yards and one touchdown on a season-high 31 carries and also caught a scoring pass to lead No. 17 Boise State to a 28-7 victory over Hawaii on Saturday night in Mountain West play at Honolulu.

Jeanty topped 200 yards on the ground for the third time this season and raised his national-best rushing touchdown count to 18. The touchdown catch was his first of the season.

The Heisman Trophy front-runner has rushed for a nation-leading 1,248 yards on just 126 carries for the Broncos (5-1, 2-0), who defeated Hawaii for the 10th consecutive time.

Maddux Madsen completed 17 of 25 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns for Boise State. Cameron Camper had season bests of seven catches for 111 yards and Austin Bolt caught a touchdown pass for the Broncos.

Boise State racked up eight sacks against the Rainbow Warriors. Jayden Virgin-Morgan led the way with 2.5 and Seyi Oladipo had two.

Brayden Schager was 21-of-36 passing for 264 yards and one touchdown for Hawaii (2-4, 0-2). Tylan Hines had a scoring reception for the Rainbow Warriors.

Hawaii trailed by just six points entering the fourth quarter before the Broncos created some cushion with an 11-play, 91-yard drive that began in the third quarter. Jeanty caught a 5-yard pass in the right flat for the touchdown and Madsen tossed a 2-point conversion throw to Bolt to make it 21-7 with 12 minutes remaining.

Hawaii turned the ball over on downs at the Boise State 19-yard line with 5:20 left. Jeanty ran for 13 yards on the next play to go over 200 for the fifth time in his career.

A short time later, the Broncos faced fourth-and-1 and Madsen threw downfield to Bolt, who fought off a tackle attempt and turned it into a 44-yard scoring play and a 21-point lead with 3:44 remaining.

Earlier, Jonah Dalmas kicked a 24-yard field goal to cap Boise State's first possession.

Later in the quarter, Jeanty broke loose for a 54-yard touchdown run down the right sideline to give the Broncos a 10-0 lead with 5:48 left in the quarter. It was Jeanty's eighth scoring run of 54 or more yards this season -- he also has a non-scoring run of 68 yards.

The Broncos later drove the ball for 73 yards on 17 plays but the drive that took 7:49 off the clock stalled and Dalmas kicked a 23-yard field goal with 7:06 left in the half.

The Rainbow Warriors got on the board by driving 91 yards on six plays. Schager capped it with a 27-yard scoring pass to Hines with 3:24 left in the half.
