Bracket experts put Broncos on the bubble. ‘They know what’s going on around them.’
The Boise State men’s basketball team completed the first round of Mountain West Conference play with last Saturday’s win at Air Force.
The Broncos’ 8-2 league record puts them alone in second place, and according to multiple NCAA Tournament bracket experts, the Broncos’ 18-4 resume to date has them sitting on the tournament bubble.
That news doesn’t change the way coach Leon Rice and his team plan to attack their final eight regular-season games.
“Our focus is always on us, nothing around us or the other teams,” Rice said. “... We’re always focused on how we can get better, how we can improve and what we can do to keep making our team better.”
