Just 3 Home Games Remain in 'Messy' Boise State Basketball Season

It has been a YEAR for Boise State basketball and while the season is winding down, now more than ever, the team could use its fans to back it up.

The season started off with a bang--but not necessarily a great one. The Broncos hosted a Division II program from Hawaii that plays out of a strip mall and lost. With high hopes for the season, a season opening loss that brutal really heart the Broncos' stock out of the gate.

There have been 'season ups', such as the Broncos knocking off a difficult and well-known St. Mary's team in Idaho Falls. And plenty of downs, such as getting beat at home by Utah State--there the Aggies had, arguably, a stronger fan base that our own Broncos at home.

Now, five games remain and three of those are at home.

While dreams of March Madness are feeling distant, there's still a chance but these games have got to be won.

The Broncos were projected to finish in the top of the Mountain West Conference this year, with a highly touted roster--they currently rank seventh.

Winning the season out could maybe have them in a distant bubble conversation but right now, this team needs synergy, support, and momentum. Remember, whichever team wins the Mountain West Conference tournament will get that automatic guarantee into March Madness. Regular season wins and losses won't mean a thing.

Let's get Boise State on a roll and ready to win in Las Vegas!

Up next? Boise State takes on San Jose State, a game they should win, at home on Saturday, February 21st at 2:00 p.m.

Boise State's Most Underappreciated Star

Boise State seems to mean "football" for most, right? On a national stage, after all, it's the blue turf and the success that the Broncos have had on it that made the university a household name. What happens on the hardwood, however, is far from appreciated at the level that it should be. Leon Rice came to Boise State as a blessing from one of the most powerful basketball programs in the nation: Gonzaga University. Now, the winningest basketball coach in the history of the school seems to take immediate heat if the Broncos aren't in the Final Four. Spoiled by wins on the football field, fans seem to expect the same of the basketball program but when the investment in basketball is so much less than football--can you really have these types of expectations!?
