Latrell Caples Claims Rivals Aim to Sabotage Ashton Jeanty's Heisman Hopes
- Latrell Caples believes opposing teams are trying to thwart Ashton Jeanty's Heisman dreams.
- Jeanty has achieved 1,525 rushing yards this season and is close to breaking Barry Sanders' record.
- Boise State is currently at the top of the Mountain West Conference rankings.
Latrell Caples, a wide receiver for Boise State, suggests that opposing teams dedicate significant efforts to impede his teammate Ashton Jeanty's performance, driven by a desire to sabotage Jeanty's Heisman Trophy aspirations. Caples argues that teams focus so heavily on Jeanty that they neglect their primary goal of winning games. Currently, Jeanty has accumulated 1,525 rushing yards in eight games, putting him on track to potentially break Barry Sanders' longstanding single-season rushing record. Caples also points out that this intense focus on stopping Jeanty opens up opportunities for himself and other players. As Boise State leads the Mountain West Conference heading into Week 11, Caples' outstanding play demonstrates that the strategy of opposing teams might be backfiring and could benefits his team's game plan.
