Boise State Broncos Set to Battle New Mexico Lobos at ExtraMile Arena

As the Boise State Broncos prepare to host the New Mexico Lobos at ExtraMile Arena, fans are eager for what promises to be an electrifying encounter. The Broncos, coming off a resounding 90-66 victory against Fresno State Bulldogs, have shown a potent offense and solid defense on their home court. Dominating both halves with 48 and 42 points respectively, they boasted an impressive field goal percentage of 59 percent and were particularly lethal from two-point range with a staggering 74 percent success rate.

The team's recent performance has been marked by high-scoring games; however, their last away game against Utah State Aggies exposed some vulnerabilities. Despite putting up a respectable fight in the first half, they ultimately fell short with a final score of 61-80. Their field goal percentage dropped to 36 percent and three-point attempts were only successful one out of four times.


Another away game saw them face Colorado State Rams where they managed to keep the score close but still ended up losing with 62-75 on the scoreboard. The Broncos maintained a decent shooting performance from inside the arc but struggled beyond it with only a quarter of their three-point shots finding the net.


The upcoming game is crucial for Boise State as they look to capitalize on their home advantage where they've recently thrived. Fans can expect an aggressive approach in scoring within paint and maintaining defensive solidity which has been key in past victories.


Mark your calendars for March 3rd at ExtraMile Arena where you can catch all the action live on CBS Sports Network channel 221 starting at local Mountain Time zone hours. This matchup is not just about maintaining momentum; it's about proving that Boise State can consistently leverage its strengths regardless of any opponent or venue challenges that come its way.
