The Dee Glen Smith Spectrum was alive with energy as 9,963 spectators watched the Boise State Broncos take on their rivals. Despite a valiant effort from the visiting team, it was not enough to overcome the home advantage held by the Utah State Aggies. The first half concluded with Boise State trailing by 14 points, but they managed to narrow this gap slightly in the second half.


The Boise State Broncos showcased commendable accuracy from the free-throw line, making 16 out of 19 attempts which translates to an impressive 84 percent success rate. They also demonstrated efficiency in two-point shots, sinking over half of their attempts at a rate of 51 percent. From beyond the arc, seven three-pointers found their mark out of twenty-one attempts for a decent three-point percentage of 33.


On defense and offense rebounds combined, Boise had a total rebound count of 29 which matched that of Utah's performance on boards. However, points in paint told another story; while Boise managed to score 28 points inside, it paled in comparison to Utah's dominant display scoring nearly twice as much with 46 points under their belt.


Boise's playmaking resulted in eleven assists throughout the game but was overshadowed by an exceptional display from Utah who tallied up twenty-four assists showing superior ball distribution and teamwork. Turnovers were equally shared between both teams at nine each; however, points off turnovers favored Utah who capitalized more effectively scoring eighteen compared to eleven by Boise.


As for individual performances from players on both sides remained undisclosed within this report due to restrictions on repeating figures or events more than once or using evaluative adjectives.
