Bronco Nation is rallying behind Ashton Jeanty! Fans are going wild for the Boise State running back, and they’re not shy about showing their love. Jeanty absolutely crushed the fan vote on Fox Sports’ X account, dominating Travis Hunter by a landslide. With 34,000 likes to Hunter’s 1,000 reposts, there’s no doubt who the fans’ favorite is. The Heisman race is heating up, and it looks like the Boise State star is a serious contender. And hey, it’s not just football that’s got everyone talking. Jeanty’s off-field life is just as exciting. His relationship with a track and field star has captured hearts. And this time, Jeanty’s 21st birthday was made extra special, thanks to a sweet shoutout from his girlfriend
Jeanty’s girlfriend, Gabriella Miller, posted an Instagram story on December 3 that featured a collage of Ashton’s childhood photos, some sweet couple pics, along with the heartfelt message—“Happy birthday to my twin flame” with a red heart. She also wrote, “Love you always. I pray you enjoy your special day. I’ll be there soon to celebrate you.” It only means that they are both staying away while Ashton gets ready for his final CFB regular season matchup with UNLV. However, this couple’s love is unaffected by distance. And with her support, he’s sure to crush it in the final home game.

Ashton Jeanty’s girlfriend’s bold move
Running backs frequently have to contend with defenses as well as the idea that their role is dwindling in the hectic world of collegiate football. But with every strong carry, Jeanty is changing that story. Beyond the football field, Jeanty’s journey to the Heisman has taken unexpected turns. He is renowned for his unwavering energy and indisputable talent. And this time, it was not just his performance that attracted attention, but also his girlfriend’s backing.
With a striking fashion statement, Gabriella fueled Jeanty’s Heisman bid. By revealing a personalized “HEI2MAN” jacket—a witty reference to his jersey number and a lighthearted jab at Heisman contender Hunter’s “HE12MAN”—she brought attention to the exciting underdog tale playing out at Boise State. The gesture was a protest toward the system that frequently ignores exceptional athletes from lesser programs, and it went beyond mere fanfare.
