The game, held at the HTC Center, saw the Boise State Broncos take control from early on. The first half ended with the home team leading by eight points, setting a strong foundation for their eventual win. The second half continued to favor the Broncos as they outscored their opponents by five points.


The Boise State offense was efficient throughout the game. They shot 39 percent from field goal range and were particularly effective from beyond the arc, hitting 35 percent of their three-point attempts. Their free throw performance was also noteworthy as they made 71 percent of their shots from the line.


Defensively, both teams were evenly matched with three blocks each. However, it was in steals where Boise State showed superiority by claiming eight compared to Colorado's five. This defensive effort contributed to fourteen points off turnovers for Boise State against nine for Colorado.


Rebounding was another area where Boise State excelled; they secured forty rebounds – ten offensive and thirty defensive – which is marginally higher than Colorado's thirty-nine total rebounds. This slight edge helped them maintain possession and control of the game pace.


The assists-turnover ratio for both teams reflected disciplined ball-handling skills but once again favored Boise State slightly at 0.73 compared to Colorado's 0.69 ratio.


For fans of The Broncos looking forward to more action-packed games, there is an upcoming match scheduled against Utah Valley Wolverines on November 26th at ExtraMile Arena in Boise, Idaho.
