Boise St. Broncos Analysis

Boise State suffered their second consecutive loss and their third in the last four games with a defeat at Colorado State, bringing their record to 13-7 overall and tied for fifth in the Mountain West with a 5-4 mark. Despite a strong shooting performance, the Broncos fell short in the game, giving up a late lead and going scoreless in the final minutes. Tyson Degenhart led Boise State with 27 points in the loss. The team ranks 100th in the nation in scoring offense, averaging 77.7 points per game, and 98th in scoring defense with an average of 67.6 points allowed. Javan Buchanan, Tyson Degenhart, and Andrew Meadow are key scorers for the Broncos, with support from O'Mar Stanley, Alvaro Cardenas, and other contributors in the rotation. Boise State excels at free throw shooting, hitting 77.6% of attempts, and ranks 48th in field goal percentage at 47.9%. On defense, the Broncos struggle against three-point shooting and allow an average of 43.25% field goals and 34.52% three-pointers. Despite these statistics, Boise State holds a power ranking of 17 and shows strengths in rebounding and assists. Their next matchup against Nevada will be crucial as they aim to bounce back from recent losses.

Boise State Looks to Capitalize on Home Advantage Against Struggling Nevada

Neither team has shown strong performance recently, with Nevada losing six of their last nine games and Boise State dropping three of their last four. Nevada has struggled on the road, with only one win in five away games, which came in overtime against Fresno State. Despite some close losses on the road, their most recent game was a disappointing 21-point loss at Utah State. On the other hand, Boise State has been dominant at home with an 20-12 record, including a victory over Clemson and convincing wins against UNLV and Wyoming. Boise State boasts a better offensive unit compared to Nevada. Until Nevada proves they can win on the road, it is advisable to favor Boise State in this home game.
